A Small Mystery
So, there's this Friday Night Funkin' Heathers mod that blew up a while ago, and someone made a Doki Doki Literature Club-themed cover of the Candy Store remix. Here it is if you're curious (but be sure to check out the original, too!).
What's so mysterious about this? To me, it's the vocal samples. I really, really think Vocaloids were used here, but aside from Sayori, I'm not confident about which ones they could be. Here are my best guesses:
Monika: Megurine Luka. Her clips seem to fall in the mezzo soprano range, and Luka was the first Vocaloid in that range who came to mind. I also considered MEIKO, but the clips used here don't have MEIKO's distinct, metallic, somewhat nasal tone.
Sayori: Hatsune Miku. Again, this is the only one I'm really sure of. Her clips have a lot of the same qualities as Miku's voice (i.e., vowel pronunciations and emphasis).
Natsuki: Kagamine Rin or Otomachi Una. Natsuki and Yuri only sing during the final chorus, and they don't have solos; it's difficult to know which clips go to which character. I will be assuming that the higher ones go to Natsuki. In this case, Natsuki's clips are even higher-pitched than Sayori's. Rin and Una are two of the most popular Vocaloids who fit the bill, though there are several more out there.
Yuri: GUMI. It's basically impossible to tell since the lowest clips really blend in during that final chorus, but I'm just going to throw this guess out there. GUMI's my favorite, anyway.
Anyone with sharper hearing or better knowledge of the video, do you have unique insight into this? Were other synths used that I hadn't considered (UTAU, Cevio, SynthV, etc.)? Are these non-vocal synths, rendering me completely off-base? I'm dying to know!!
This is my bread and butter babeeeeeeeeeehhhhhhh
