Aiko BalladSoft Beta Test - Moonlight Restaurant

Aaaand here it is, finally! A new voicebank! I recorded Aiko's BalladSoft CV today (well, one pitch of it) and I'm rather happy with how it sounds so far! You can expect more tests to be posted as I finish it up. I'll also focus on fixing RockLoud's quiet consonants and recording extra pitches.

UST Fixing and "Roots" Album Cover

I decided today that I'd fix my UST for "Escape" since Aerendyll (Mahou Yuki's voicer) has wanted it for ages. You can listen to it here:


...and compare it to my older version from here. It should be uploaded soon, once we post our videos using it.

Also, AkiGlancy has finished and revealed the cover artwork for her upcoming album "Roots" (which will feature Kikyuune Aiko's CV BalladSoft voicebank!)

Aria on the Game Center - Kikyuune Aiko

I finished and posted one of those covers I mentioned in the last post! As usual, the USTs for this song can be found on my USTs + MIDIs page~

More Small Updates~

It's summer break, and that means it's recording time! :D

I'll be focusing mainly on CV BalladSoft and CVVC RockLoud English first, seeing as AkiGlancy requires the former, and I have plans to use the latter for Aiko's birthday (which is coming up in July). But by July 10th, I should have those banks plus CV and VCV RockLoud complete and released. PopMellow's tone is a bit more difficult for me to record so it'll be the last bank I focus on.

Also, I'm participating in the Minna no UTAU overseas album collaboration project which will take up a lot of my time in the following 2 months. I also have a couple of large art projects related to UTAU and Vocaloid in the following months, as well as the Project UTAU XYZ website to develop, AND a summer job... so this summer I might be slow on posting videos while I focus on all this behind-the-scenes work. I have 3 cover videos I plan to post in the next week or so, but after that you can keep up with the voicebank progress and any small non-video demos on here, Aiko's Facebook page, and my UTAU/Vocaloid Tumblr (polkaloid.tumblr.com)

Finally, I'd like to give a special thanks and shout-out to MewKwota. She decided that today, or "Mother's Day" in the US, should also be known as "UTAU Mama Birds Day" or a special occasion to thank people who helped you get into UTAU and learn the software and such. I'm really flattered that she views Aiko as Tsux's "Mama Bird" and I'd like to thank both Yesi-chan and SingingRobotStalker (as well as Camila Melodia and Zuii Takoe) for being my own UTAU Mama Birds ;u;/

Updating Wikia

Aiko's and Akio's pages are now up-to-date, and I'll be making pages for Akihiko, Akiko and Fuusenne pretty soon.

Terms of Use Updates~

Just made some minor changes to the Terms of Use page. Hopefully I fixed some confusing wording and made everything more organized and clear. Also rewrote and added more specific examples in the "Mature/Obscene Content" section, so hopefully that makes a lot more sense!
