Updates for Finnish reclist 2016

Hello everyone, I have good news!

New, easy, fast and good Finnish CV+ reclist with base oto.ini, BGMguide and an example VB is ready!

My New-CVVC-Finnish is now in BETA stage, you can DL BETA it right here.

Lastly: I'm very happy that I've finished FINALLY after over 6 month work my Finnish VCVlite reclist in its final form and base oto - only need to record it and check for possible typos etc.

Heyyy

Is it now November all ready?

Wow!

The time has fly so fast again, I can't believe it!

Sorry for not keeping my blog very often updated, I'm often very busy (and I don't always remember to write anything here//shot)

I am still working on VCV lite Finnish reclist! Also working on totally NEW CVVC Finnish reclist which is 5-mora!

I did find out that I my first "Advanced Finnish CVVC" reclist was kinda very messy and "too much to oto", "takes too much time to record" + I realized that I've missed "kv" sounds from the list and "n k", "m k", "n t" etc kind of CC(?) combinations just like in Japanese CVVC.

My goal is that both reclist will have proper oto.ini files with the recording list (and maybe some tutorials too: pronunciation guide + oto settings etc).

I try make VCV list as easy and simple as possible. I've tried make it 6/7-mora but not with good results. 3-mora would be pretty easy to make but would "take too much time". I think that I try to make Finnish VCV lite 4 or 5-mora if possible. (And I think that different strings would be probably different more dipping of difficulty etc).

I bet that my new 5-mora CVVC Finnish reclist will much FASTER that my currently CVVC reclist but still good-sounding! Just wait patiently, ok? ;; v ;;

Also, lately I have FINALLY god how heck OREMO's guideBGM works! (wohooh!)

Making oto will be now easier and faster for now! T 7 T )d

Wow haven't written for a while

Wow

I haven't write anything on my blog for ages.

I've been kinda busy this autumn with school: Lot of test, an english exam and stuff... x__x

Now I've an autumn break for a week, so now I can bit relax and do more UTAU and drawing(?)

I've done a CVVC append for Lychee and I've also experiment with Spanish VCV too (I'm not sure that will I release that or not because that VB has sooooo strong Finnish accent).

And guess what: 16 October, my first UTAU Aki will have his 2nd birthdays! O_O
Wow, two years of him and when I look back to my first year he was so different what he's now. Now my VB have overall better recording quality than back then (I remember how horrible was ACT1, ACT2 and first VCV was back then), also clothes has changed a lot (hey, a change from a "Crypton pun" to a original prince look!) and I've dropped kanji "ne" from his last name in this fall. Let's see how thing are in the next year XD

For future VBs I'm planning to record new VCV VB(s) for Aki and hopefully at some point VBs for other languages too + VBs for Lychee and Azurite.

At the moment I'm planning to make a "bilanguage" VB which can sing (obviously) in two languages: Finnish and Finland Swedish. (Finnish will be that "primary language" tho)

Why "Finland Swedish": It's because I'm from Finland and basically I know well Finland Swedish only (because of my school teachers and can't do nothing for that), so it's kinda natural choice, right?

Also I find out that most to sounds are very similar/same, so why not put two languages in one VB? I mean: Finland Swedish accent sounds less or more like Finnish, so isn't very hard to put them together, in my opinion. (If I knew Sweden Swedish then I would not do this but with Finland Swedish is kinda more okay???)

Just stuff

A base oto for Finnish CVVC is done, only needed to make base for VCV lite and CV later.

I'm planning to create Finnish VB in all those types: CVVC and VCV lite version for Aki and if possible then also CV for Lychee. I think that all will be just one pitch (at least now at begging, maybe more pitches in future if I and others are interested in).

I'll of course record other languages too but later.

I'll write one blogpost in Japanese here at some point too, so don't surprise about that hehe

Basic UTAU related updates

Hello all!

This time I want to write just some random updates about my UTAUs:

1) I made an UTAU based on carrot eating/crunching sound. I had to put my microphone's sensitive very high (almost maximum) that it taken my crunching sounds enough bit for UTAU program.

And here is the results:


Pretty interesting sound, right?
You can also download it if want to! 8D Download link to voicebank

The character on "carrot crushing VB" is a albino pet rabbit named Möykkyli.
He's owned by my UTAU Tokane Aki.

2) I released for my main UTAU updated CV VB:


He has now much better and more understandable voice now. I just need to record for him new VCV and some Appends and new languages etc for him too later!

3) A totally new UTAU character from me is now work in progress. His name is Azurite (アズライト) and he is a bird UTAU. I do not have any full image of him yet but he'll get asap!

Here is a little sample of him (I think that I'll re-record few samples/make more VBs before  final release): Link to sample

4) I'm now full of new UTAU ideas! I've so many plans and stuff what I want to do, but so hard to decide what to make first (+my school starts again soon and this year is kinda special for me because I need to write one examination in this autumn and many at spring. Ahhhh! Will be so busy! T7T)

Thank you for reading guys, I hope that I can write again something here soon!

A little intro to my UTAU characters

For beginning I want to introduce my own UTAUs. ^^

Let's show first UTAU Tokane Aki (兎歌音アキ)


Tokane Aki's 2015 design
I created him first (in late 2013): yes, he's my first UTAUloid character. Oh gosh, I still remember his very very first designs ever. *laughs and cries* D'oh, them were very bad and was too much inspired from very popular Vocaloids and UTAUs (not using his very old/first designs anymore). Oh, I'm so happy that his look is nowadays much unique, tho. T7T)

As character he's pretty friendly and kind (except for his little sister Kiia). He has officially a girlfriend called Aino Erufu (she's an UTAU character too, created by my friend).

He has pretty many voice banks (only few are very good tho).

Here is the most decentest sample atm:


Next is Aki's sister Tokane Kiia (兎歌音キーア)


Tokane Kiia's main design

She was actually all ready created in same year than Aki but because my lagging of utau skills back then (and because I wasn't happy at her first design at all) I didn't release her officially until 2014 spring.

I couldn't voice anything girly enough and other people couldn't voice her, so she ended up to be just "genderbend" of Aki's voice. (Using flags g-17 on Aki's voice) 

As character she's very selfish, bossing and mostly just caring about herself and that she looks very good. She's also big fan of China. 8'D

And here is my newest UTAU Lychee (ライチ)


Furloid/Animaloid Lychee
Lychee's reference sheet
At some point (in late 2014) I got an idea to create an Anthro character.

I was planning originally to someone else to voice her first but because many thing happened and so on, so I decided to voice her at the end. 

From beginning of creating her I wanted to her to be as unique as possible and I did a lot work to not mimic any other UTAU character around the net. It did take months to design her but pretty proud of it, I think that she's pretty unique character atm.

Unlike Aki and Kiia, I didn't give Japanese name. Also, I didn't give any last name for her.
Name "Lychee" just popped out from my head when i gone in super market and looked at juices on fruit shelf and I did thought that lychee juice is delicious and then that it would be very yummy name for character and at same day I did gave a name for my character. (I checked from Google that was that name all ready taken and there were none "Lychee" named UTAUloid character before me, so I was very lucky and happy that name wasn't taken before me.)

I didn't want to her sound like my previous UTAU at all, so I did voice act quite heavily to sound different enough. 

As character she's energy little fox girl 5 years old in human age and comes from space. 

She has just basic CV at the moment but I'm planning to create more once when I get motivated and have time.

Voice sample of her CV ver. 1.0:
