I'm going to ask an important but dumbass question that probably comes up for a lot of people. I think there's an obvious answer, but I'm hoping for another one. :) I often want to use a guitar, but I don't know how to play. I'll try to lay out a chord progression by making a sequence of...

Hello everyone! I've released a new chillwave song: "Walk with Me!" Words & Music / 単語と音楽: mobius017 ( mobius017 - ニコニコ ) Illust / イラスト: Background / 背景: 「深い赤が空を染める」 ( [piaproイラスト]深い赤が空を染める ) by テルハさん ( [piapro]テルハさんのマイページ ) Hatsune Miku Illust / 初音ミク イラスト: 「miku1190」 ( [piaproイラスト]miku1190...

Has anyone worked with adding things like waveforms/colored orbs/etc. that respond to the music to their PVs? If you have, what software did you use? I'm sort of interested in experimenting/seeing what kind of results I'd get, so ideally I'm looking to see if there's something simple to use...

Hello everyone! I'm excited to share my new song, "Lofi Twilight!" This the first song I've shared on Nico Nico, as well as the first lyric video I've released. I'm still learning, but it's quite a feeling to attempt to contribute something to Vocaloid's ancestral roots, in the format I've...

Does anyone have preferred settings for merging voices using Zynaptiq Morph? I've been experimenting with it as an alternative to XSY of Miku V4 and V3, using the settings below: Algorithm: Interweave LL Morph/Xfade: On the left, about 90% of the way up toward B Complexity: about 75% For what...

I thought it might be fun to share merch you're Waiting For and merch you're Wishing For. Waiting For: Merch that will be or that has been released, but which you haven't bought yet for whatever reason. Wishing For: Your imagination is the limit here. Maybe you want a LUMi-inspired life...

Just for a bit of fun, what do you think some of your favorite vocal synths' favorite drinks would be? This can be any kind of drink: coffee/tea, milk, soft drinks, beverages that require responsibility (In which case, you can choose to handle this as you will: ignore their canonical ages...

Any suggestions for making a Vocaloid yell? Especially for short phrases (e.g., "Stop!" "Run!" "Hide!"). Dyn and Volume will have to be up, obviously, though I'm thinking have one/both rise a little and then crash to 0 at the end of the word. Ope is already maxed open by default, so that'll...

What sort of instrument do people use for a more artificial bass sound, suitable for EDM? For example, something like the bouncy, twangy synth in nostraightanswer's "With This Love?" (I like this sound, but this particular sound isn't the focus of my question. I'm looking for the...

Hi everyone! Below is "Insomnia," my new short vocal synth fanfic! This story came to me a few weeks ago as I was laying down to bed. I didn't sleep much that night, but I was able to write most of this. I hope you'll give it a look and that you'll enjoy it!

I was curious about what inspires us. What things in your life give you the urge to create something? I've found that I have a few memories, or even imaginary scenes, that I've accumulated over the years that I want to turn into some kind of creative work. Unusually strong feelings are also...

Anyone have any tips for making vocals more terse/talkloid-like? From my own experience, I'm thinking Keeping notes short Little pitch variation between notes Maybe decreasing OPE (so the mouth is more closed) Hopefully not, but possibly having to put a really short pitched-down/up note after...

It seems like I haven't been getting email notifications for a few days. For example, I have the Miku Expo 2023 VR thread watched, and I received email notifications until Mar. 29 (Miku Expo 2023 VR). After that, there have been a few posts, but no emails. It seems to be the same for some...

You might have seen articles/videos recently about an interaction between a reporter and the AI chatbot-type functionality of the Bing search engine. Here's one video I wanted to post with a few ideas, although this is a little off-topic for what we do here. To begin with, as was said in the...

You know the iconic two-note slurred Hawaiian/tropical instrumental riff? The one so commonly heard at the first appearance of an island paradise setting that it's sort of a trope? Does anyone know what instrument makes that? By its sound, I'd guess it's a metal string instrument, possibly...

I remember @peaches2217 mentioning having issues moving Vocaloids to an external HD a long while back. I currently have Synth V Studio Pro installed on my local HD, and I'm thinking about moving it to an external drive to save space (despite how little space it takes up). I.e., uninstalling it...

In honor of the season, I'm sharing a Halloween-based WIP! This is still a bit rough (particularly the vocals, for instance), but I hope you'll tell me if you think it's coming along or not. Regardless, if you observe the day somehow, I hope you have a good Halloween, everyone!

Can anyone share recommendations for image-editing software? I've been using Corel for awhile (which I think is relatively similar to PhotoShop), but they've moved to a subscription model. I'm not really a visual artist, so I think something like Clip Studio Paint is probably not quite right...

Clipping has been a bane of my existence for as long as I've been trying to produce. It's annoying as all heck trying to make a song, having it sounding good in the DAW, and then being unable to render it because it warns you that it's too loud in spots. As I understand, it's related to...
