    Scenario Thing- Luka's English Class

    I feel like it would be a nightmare to try and tune any voicebank to read that story. I can never seem to use any rhotic vowels as-is. They always require a bunch of tinkering to sound right. I feel like they're really temperamental based on what phoneme preceded them.

    Scenario Thing- Luka's English Class

    Luka: Okay, let's just move on. Time to practice our rhotic vowels. Open your books and we're going to take turns reading a short story aloud. (Turning to the story page the students get nervous.) The Story of a Lord's Elevator by Nokone There once was a lord who lived in a spire. For...

    Scenario Thing- Luka's English Class

    Luka: You have all made good progress. For a change of pace let's try an advanced exercise as a little challenge. (The class breaks out in a nervous sweat.) Luka: For the first exercise we'll practice pronouncing "L." Let's try saying this phrase. (Luka writes on the whiteboard.) Luka: Repeat...

    Dictionary Use and Thoughts on Phonemes

    Actually, I recently bought Miku V3! There are few things I want to try with her. One idea is that I can run two vocal tracks and if Miku V4 is struggling with a word or phrase I can see if Miku V3 works better. I've tried this using her Japanese voicebank, Miku V4 (Original), and it has...

    Need Advice on Plugin/Mix Settings and Setup

    The automation is working correctly. I thought it might be my system overloading/lagging, but, after testing several different things, that isn't the case. Raising the input gain helped a little? But it still seems like it is taking a moment for the plugin effect to kick in, or become...

    Need Advice on Plugin/Mix Settings and Setup

    So, I'm using the Redlight Distortion plugin that comes with Studio One. For some reason it takes about two seconds to kick in, so the first two words of the line of lyrics don't have the distortion applied to them. (Maybe it is because the delay effect needs some sound to delay, so it has to...

    The death of CV Series' cliche in voicesynth designs

    I think the target demographic had something to do with it. Back in 2007 music production equipment and software packages were less accessible. So the designs were meant to appeal to those in the music industry or people who had a home studio setup. I think it's fair to say that a lot of...

    Need Advice on Plugin/Mix Settings and Setup

    Sorry for my rambling stream-of-consciousness post. The thing I'm trying to do here-and-now is approximate the sound of "Lost One's Weeping" by Neru. For the effect from 1:02 to 1:12 I can get something I like from either an analog delay plugin or a tube distortion effect plugin. Something...

    【Synth V Original】 Příliš žluťoučký kůň 【Eleanor Forte Lite】

    There's something strangely nostalgic for me about the song's sound/style that I can't quite put my finger on. I used to listen to a lot of music similar to this, but it has been so long I couldn't tell you who the artists were.

    It's not often that I hear an acoustic guitar section seamlessly incorporated into an electronica song.

    【IO+】My Covers

    Re: Yuragi Cover How have I missed this song!? I love niki's work. If you just played this for me with no context, I would have assumed it was some new J-rock release. Honestly the last few songs you've posted have changed my opinion on vflower.

    Need Advice on Plugin/Mix Settings and Setup

    In a lot of songs there are (I dunno what you call it) doubled-up vocals? Sometimes it's used to bulk-up a reedy or thin vocal. It usually isn't a chorus or echo plugin (I think?). I guess it's an actual second vocal track, either in the DAW or in the Vocaloid editor itself. Sometimes it...

    Dictionary Use and Thoughts on Phonemes

    So, my challenge today was the lyric: "Can you read a heart's words like ink on paper?" After (an unreasonable amount of time) I came up with a couple variations that basically worked. In the end I went with: [ k { n ][ j U ][ r I d ][ d V ][ - h_0 ] [ h Q ][ - Q][ r V t s ][ s w Q ][ - Q ][...

    Dictionary Use and Thoughts on Phonemes

    You've given me some stuff to think about. And thanks for the feedback. I've thought about writing up a guide about stuff I've discovered in my hours messing with Piapro. I just felt I'm too new to be telling people anything. ^^; Things I could potentially cover: I was surprised that...

    Dictionary Use and Thoughts on Phonemes

    I posted this here so I don't hijack the Unpopular Opinions thread. I was surprised reading this discussion. So far I've been building songs out of nothing but individual phonemes. I just assumed that people often did something similar. I also don't know if it's common to use the cut tool on...

    A Look At the Lyrics to "HIBANA"

    I was looking at the potential in adapting the lyrics to "HIBANA" by DECO*27. Translates to "SPARKS." I'm reading over it again and again and I gotta say: I'm not sure I understand this song. Is it poetic expressions and colloquialisms that are making this hard to translate, or is it just...
