  • Does Hayden have a lot of background noise? I keep hearing covers with this weird crunchy noise in them.

    I've seen reported issues with noise on all the new Dreamtonics vocalists, as well as some other quirks with their pitch. I know Sheena and Eri also have some oddities at the moment; it seems to have hit a lot of voices after the latest Synthesizer V update. Hopefully, it's a Natalie/HDVM situation, where they improve in future.
    I went looking at the Miku Expo Boston tickets again and seats that were 200 USD are now 600 USD. That is insane. Someone should sue ticketmaster over this. Also now the chances of me being able to go are 0.

    On top of it there won’t be any blu rays made for Miku Expo. Hopefully someone will post cell phone videos for the concerts on YouTube, like what’s happened before, cause what’s happening with these concerts is really awful. (Ok there was a Japanese release for the 2014 NY Miku Expo, but not a US release or anything else since.)
    I didn’t realize that a game I was playing only had a fan translation for 2/3 of the story. Running the story through Google translate and Apple translate gives an ok approximate of the story I think. Really annoying.
    Ugh I really wish I had VY2 V3 instead of V5 right now. Maybe if I had the V6 editor it’d be easily, but I forgot how much of a pain V5 editor is. :/
    Does anyone have the phonetic charts for vocaloid? Vocaloid fandom seems to be inaccessible.

    This zip file included Vocaloid phonetic chart and hidden phonetic chart, both are PDF format.
    I might as well upload it on resource how to use vocaloid.

    There is also the wikia phonetics:


    Misc Phonetics:

    (These are phonemes that add additional effects to your notes)

    And there is also V4 User manual where they gave the phonetics list at page 160 onward to all languages (And even Bopomofo, that I don't know what it is)

    Oh the wiki is back up. Nice to know, thanks!
    Wait, if Yamaha can make the Zola boys V6 vbs based off of their V3 vbs, then could they make VY1 and VY2 V6 vbs based off of their prior vbs?

    So Imsupposedto was curious if it was possible to train an ai on raw vocaloid recordings. Apparently vy2v3 was programmed in a way where his samples were more intact. Keep in mind this completely unofficial and uses a voice changer not vocaloid 6 ai. It was made to see if it was even possible and what it could possibly sound like.

    This shows that this method is possible. It makes me wonder why they didn't do this to all legacy banks so that v6 ai has a bigger vocal library to choose from. This method is good at retaining the original sound of voice bank. It seems perfect for vbs like yuki where their voice providers voice has changed.
    This whole twitter x thing has pushed me to delete my account. I’m leaving it up until the 31st, but it’ll be strange not having it anymore. I’ve had that account since December of 2012.

    I actually felt that too, but then I realized that only on twitter I can find updates and news about Vocaloid (concerts, goods, etc..). Some companies post some updates also on LINE or instagram, but most of them are still on twitter.. mm..
    I miss good old twitter of some years ago, it was so simple, fast and good. Now it is indeed in the wrong direction, the worst direction, and with all advertisement revenue going down, it can't survive long as it is. the whole twitter x thing just made the thing 1000 times worse.
    there is the possibility that in a period of 6 months-1 year, things will be so bad (and they will be) for the company that some other company will buy twitter, for a fraction of what was bought. for example, now its market value is less than 13 billions and it has over 10 billions in debt. yes, it's that bad.
    do you remember some days ago there was that strange limit of how many tweets you could see/day? that was because the company didn't have more money to pay google cloud services. they are already near bankruptcy.
    I can see Microsoft, Softbank or Yahoo/Verizon or maybe even Meta buying twitter soon and make it back like it was some time ago.
    I still won't delete my account (like yours it was made around 2012), but I already deleted the app from my phone and I use only from browser only for checking news/updates of official accounts, like 1 minute every day. and of course adblock always enabled, so they can't get any revenue from me. i'm actually using their server bills, so it feels good hehe

    Honestly, I really feel for folks who see/experience Twitter in a more positive way than I do--no matter what, it sucks to lose something you care about. But my impression, based on the comments from the various people who've taken a break from/left the fandom over the years, is that Twitter has a seemingly disproportionate ability to accumulate and spread misery. To my recollection, almost everyone who's gone on hiatus/left, and many others who've commented on triggering experiences/drama, has done so with some reference to the negative experiences they've had on Twitter, sometimes among other places. So personally, if Twitter closed down, I think it might ultimately be a healthy thing.

    At the same time, Twitter's just a platform. It's how people use it that makes it good or bad, although the nature of the platform probably encourages certain kinds of use. Which might/might not contribute to why people have bad experiences there.

    Regarding Twitter/X, the idea of a super platform where people can do pretty much anything is an interesting idea. But once you've seen the movie The Circle, that kind of thing probably makes you hesitate a little.

    Though with the financial issues plaguing Twitter and its ownership, whether any of those things will happen seems somewhat questionable. Though they did manage to make some serious strides with SpaceX, so....

    The twitter experience has been ok for me overall, but over the years I’ve become ok with not being popular and only getting a few likes on things. If in the next week it turns back into twitter I might consider removing all tweets and leaving my account alone for now, but I don’t want to support the change to x. It is definitely really hard for me to get rid of my account since I’ve had it so long. It does almost feel like I’ll be losing the only way I can prove that I’ve been around as long as I say I have since I don’t have any posts on youtube. Guess I can unprivate some of my bad SoundCloud posts. lol
    Sora is supposed to be 17? Here I was thinking that she was in her 30s for some reason.
    After charging it most of the day, my computer’s battery is at 99% while the keyboard is at 11%. Just a few more hours tomorrow and I’ll be able to use it.
    I just heard that Akiglancy is going to be doing a Vocaloid concert at Tiger Con in September. I really really hope that no one harasses her.(also a friend might be going and I wouldn’t want her to experience that)
