Description Tried drawing in Dahlia's old 2011 style!:   I was in love with her art back then and am in love with it today, it's really interesting to see how much it's developed tho- there's different times I associate with the different styles *v*

Preview of Kimine's new design! I wanted to contrast Akiharu's epaulets with something off the shoulder for Kimin- I hope it looks ok!!

Kimine is gonna get a new design ? *o* The drawing look awesome ! *v* (Stupid question: Are you gonna make a new bank for them then ? [Stupid question because DELUXE+ and PRIME+ are already super duper great])

Ekkoberry In reply to Manaami [2015-02-28 06:18:49 +0000 UTC]

Yeee just bc I was bored with the ones they had currently so I thought it'd be fun to give them new ones *__*

Thank you!! and I don't thinkkkk so- I wanna keep updating deluxe+/prime+ bc I still keep coming across random samples that need to be tweaked but overall im not sure how I could top them (each bank I've ever made being an improvement on the last)

They really are at a quality (I think at least) that most people wanting to use them would be satisfied with ((LMFAO THAT SOUNDS REALLY ARROGANT BUT I HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN PFF) like they're cv/cvvc/vcv compatible with any extra I as a ust-er have ever needed ye *__*/

THO I might make better standalone cv banks for those ppl who don't know how to use/don't want to download big vcv banks ye

Can't wait to the the finished one ! >w< I'm sure they'll be awesome as always ^v^/

Yeah, I understand lmao, since they have ALL compatibility + extra english samples, theres no need to make new VB I think (OMFG I FEEL BAD FOR YOU BECAUSE ALL THE RECORDING + YOU HAVE TWO UTAU ;___; )

And you think right, they're so fricking awesome ! (Don't worry, I understand) OMG, I just think I never used them ? Omg, I'm so ashamed, wtf me sorry ;_;

Aww yeah, I understand, for people who actually prefer CV, it can be better

Probably with the next update yeee I'm not sure when I'll get my butt around to it but it probably won't even be noticeable outside of adding in some more end breaths  love them end breaths

yeah like unless utau comes up with another voicebank method I'm out of things to do I think- and I don't have too much interest in english voicebanks I'm not /THAT/ masochistic pfff
IDK tbh I find it fun kinda- I learnt a lot otoing-wise and yeah now most of the work's over and done with so I don't have to do much else

Don't worry omg like tbh I just see them as like- OCS/tools for when I wanna make covers? Like i used them to learn how to configure banks in general, they gave me things to draw, are voices to use as default for my usts etc I'm not worried if others use them ye ;0; I also like listening to my voice

Manaami In reply to Ekkoberry [2015-02-28 09:15:21 +0000 UTC]

Dem end breath, need more end breath, never too much end breath //slapped

Well.. You had the courage to do CV + VCV + CVVC so.. Yeah you're pretty much out of things to do .w." Aww, and english akiharu would be fun tbh, I would totally use him but.. Yeah, 1300 samples to record and oto is not the best
Wait, you found otoing fun ? I wish I found otoing fun to, my bank would be already finished OTL That's a great thing I think tbh You can spend more time with art since you want to be an artist, and I'm totally supporting you for this!!

I know but, these banks are so dem awesome and you spend so much time doing these, and I love Kimine and Akiharu so.. Yeah, shame on me omg ;n; I guess that's why UTAU exist (?)

tbh

It'd be hard to get an english accent for him right I think- british english has a few vowels americans don't (and vice versa) so I'd have to make edits to an existing list, and none out right now are perfect yeah so for what I want I think it'd be more hassle than it's worth- headcannon wise akiharu has a pretty strong British accent like me hah (kimine tho idk why she seems more american- I have no idea how that'd really work tbh as they are related but??

well it gets a lot easier through repetition and eventually a single vcv pitch is nothing (I did the math a while ago but around june last year I think it was something like I otoed a total of 28 pitches? the 14 of my own+ redos+ friends banks as im too uptight about oto quality and wouldn't let them oto things themselves LOL))

I also had a few kinda personal reasons for liking otoing, the main one being that I'm pretty acutely asthmatic and on my bad days I'd need something really tedious to distract me and otoing helped with that, and sometimes I was too shaky from breathing meds I couldn't draw so I needed something I could do without a tablet+ maybe it's weird but I liked listening to my friends voices when I couldn't actually speak to them even if it was monotonous singing strings

Ahhh thank you! yeah I do pff I really wanna work on my art more so I'm glad utau doesn't require as much time for me anymore o-<-<

surprizingly not! most seem to not like listening to their voice all that much and im like ??

Manaami In reply to Ekkoberry [2015-02-28 10:53:01 +0000 UTC]

Well.. I'm not a native English speaker so, don't really know tbh- Oww yeah.. And working on an English Bank even for vowel must be hard god- Ow yeah..  chipotle, remember? (I notice that to... Parents ? Who knows..)

Tbh, this is my first correct VB and I oto'ed two VCV lite and.. 3-4 full VCV I think ? And I still found it boring but, that's me I guess lol (28 Pitches ? Omg, you're crazy o_o I would probably die XD Oww yeah, redo and also append for Akiharu (?) )

Oww yeah your asthma, I understand it, It must be fricking boring (remember ask.fm ? It was me lol) omg that must be horrible ! Since you love drawing, I can't imagine.. (Tbh, I really understand that, I have social anxiety and I only have internet friends and listening to their UTAU really helped me out I also made a depression because of that tbh, that's why UTAU really help me [I know this is probably stupid but.. yeah haha ;;])  so.. Trust me, I understand you

I totally understand! You're a great artist, and art must be your priority if I can say this haha ;;

Really ? For me, my voice is just.. Well my voice, not disturbing to listen ?? Idk

Ekkoberry In reply to Manaami [2015-03-01 09:00:42 +0000 UTC]

ohhok ;0; well yeah there are slight differences in how american english and british english pronounce things

it's annoying but as long as I can spend my time doing other things, I'm fine- if I don't have otoing to do I can read or listen to art podcasts so that helps me feel less fustrated
ohh ok hi again then!!
Ahh yeah same- UTAU really helped me through some dark times - nono it doesn't sound stupid at all yeah I understand ;0;

yeah I think so too ;a;

some people seem to really dislike it so they find it strange when I say I actually enjoy hearing my voice pff

Manaami In reply to Ekkoberry [2015-03-01 16:10:42 +0000 UTC]

Well.. Upgrading them to english is.. Well impossible or very hard then :/

Spend an entire day doing nothing is horrible, yeah- Same here, always do this when I'm bored or have nothing to do
Hiii!!
Someone who understand yeah- I actually never tell that to everyone lol, because I was thinking no one would actually understand haha..

I will always follow your work because they're dem awesome haha ;0;

I don't really understand tbh, It's just your voice? It's not that disturbing, and listening to your own voice is funny lmao

I love Kimin's shoulder thingies. If what you were aiming for was a contrasting shoulder thingy, then you nailed it right on the head and plus, that dress is SUPER CUTE~
