Ah, that makes sense! Thank you!
Vocaloid2-4 make you pause before you can edit, but I find it much faster to work in those editors. V5-6 let you change while playing but it takes a long time to render.
What do you mean by "makes you pause before you can edit"? I don't understand, I thought that you could edit while it's running? Or maybe that's the case in the V4 editor proper. I don't know, I use Piapro v4x.

It's not like that in Piapro iirc (it's been a very long time since I've needed to ever use it), but actual Vocaloid editors used to make you pause playback before you could do anything. Like I can't edit while playing the vocals back. V5 made it so its like SV where you can edit while playing, but it'll need to render again (while being slower than SV). The Piapro editor is a bit different than the actual V3/V4 in how it works.

Perhaps this could be her fanclub instead.

Wouldn't it be appropriate to refer 08/31 as "Hatsune Day" rather than as her birthday? As the first day, the 'First Sound' was first heard. I find it much more poetic. It also pairs perfect with Miku Day/3/9. Of course my reasoning may be to an extent effect by my never partaking of birthday celebrations. But what do y'all think?

I don't know if this is important enough to make a thread for, but how do y'all figure out the correct notes for harmonies? For reference, one of the song's I'm working on has a section where there are three voices singing the same words at the same time but with different note patterns. For some reason, the way I usually find notes (trying to hum them) isn't working, and I need help.

Most harmonies follow the principles of music theory, with each singer singing part of a chord. So the more you understand about chords, the easier identifying harmonies will be! If you aren't already, I recommend learning the basic chords and intervals of a scale.

When I can't identify harmonies, I will use simple music theory to invent my own with thirds, fifths, and octaves. Even if they aren't 100% accurate to the original, they won't sound dissonant or 'wrong'. :maki_lili: :tsurumaki_lili:

Huh, I haven't thought of that (somehow)! I do actually know basic chords and scale intervals, so thank you!
