Hello fellow VocaVerse users!
As some of you know, I’ve been working on a massive project: covering all of Epic: The Musical using my UTAUs! I have specific roles mapped out for each major character, but I'm just a man (reference intended!) trying to make these covers as amazing as possible.
My current issue? I’ve been using the exact same group of UTAUs for the crew, the suitors, and general backup vocals. Because of that, it lacks that epic, overwhelming feeling of a "whole fleet singing." I want to truly capture that "108 suitors / 600 men" energy for the heavy ensemble tracks. Doing this alone on my computer— well- my brothers computer takes forever to load once I hit 20+ vocal tracks, and it still doesn't sound quite right.
Where You Come In!
Whenever the crew, suitors, or major backup ensembles sing, I am looking for volunteers to render and tune a few lines. I am open to any engine—UTAU, Vocaloid, SynthV, CeVIO, or whatever you use! As long as I can get a tuned audio recording of a synth singing the part, it works.
Songs That Need Massive Backup Vocals
Right now, I am actively working on the following four tracks, and I desperately need backup vocals for three of them:
If you are interested in lending your synths to the fleet, for The underworld or The challenge drop a comment or send me a demo, and I’ll gladly give you the files to add your voice to the mix! And also I’m alright with any song as long as I get demo’s for the vocals! And as long as it’s any song that’s listed that includes backup vocals I’ll take it!
This is the biggest project I’ve ever tackled, and any help would be incredibly appreciated. (I'm starting to sound a bit like Jorge doing ensemble auditions, aren't I?) Let's make something legendary!

- What I will provide: A MIDI file (via MuseScore) containing both the vocal melodies and instrumental guides.
- What I need: At most, 1 to 4 vocal recordings max per volunteer. I recommend 4 because some sections have up to four distinct harmonic parts, so it would be amazing to get one vocal for each harmonic layer!
- Crediting: Everyone who contributes will absolutely be credited when the final covers are posted!

- Scylla (Still fixing up a lot of the main tracks)
- The Challenge
(Needs Backups!)
- The Underworld (Needs Backups!)
- God Games (Doesn't have many backup vocals, so I'm good on this one!)
- In Vain (Cut song from the Cut Saga—absolute peak, but it has no backups at all, so no vocals needed here!)
