Vocaloid Sarah - Tumblr Posts

Song cover update: I just got done tuning the first verse for each part. It's time-consuming, but it's also fun to really learn the ins and outs of the VOCALOID6 software.

Each character/vocal is giving me unique challenges, too.

GUMI is pretty soft no matter how much I increase her DYN or Expression (AI) values, so her volume slider in the mixer is permanently set to 3.0. Her longer notes can also be a bit raspy/funky, and figuring out how to soften them isn't always straightforward. Mixing her SOLID voicebank with her original V6's "Megpoid Default" Style filter actually produces some nice, well-rounded results, so that's neat.

Una has been the most difficult for me to work with so far. I'm using her Spicy voicebank since Sweet is a bit too soft for this song's energy, but she still isn't that clear or powerful on her own. The "Una_Spicy_Bright" Style filter adds a bit of noise, but it also really helps her bring out her consonants and sound a bit more "punchy."

HARUKA really doesn't like vibrato. She also overpowers the others A LOT by default, so I nerfed her Expression (AI).

SARAH sounds the most bored of the four without tuning, but she's been pretty easy to work with otherwise. She responds well to parameter adjustments.
