New UTAU, with new engine

I am sticking with the the old... I love how smooth she is but I HATE her "i"s and "e"s with the newer one.. and how she sounds when gets higher XD;

Kii's ACT3 sounds smoother and noticably deeper xDD and Viai sounds... well, better.

Oddly enough, Vista doesn't get nasally in high notes.

It makes her sound smoother though her "shi" and "sho" still suck 8D

I haven't tried remaking Ariella's .frq files, but what I have noticed is that the freesamp MASSIVELY improves Ariella and makes her sound more mature and kicks out the robotic tone. It even helps heal up her VCVs.



Also, when working with Teto's older bank (before she had VCVs, she just had a prefix map) I discovered that this sampler does GREAT with a prefix map. I'm going to try using Momo and see if Momo keeps her clarity and see what it does for her 2009 bank.

This is what I made. I must say. PREFIX MAPS ARE A MUST WITH THIS RESAMPLER. You WILL get nasal sounds otherwise when you try to make your UTAU sing higher notes.

how do you get said maps?

Hmmm, I'd like to know more about prefix maps too, Kaen needs a little bit more range for songs like Rotten Boy Grotesque Romance and Meltdown and such.

basiclly what prefix maps do is tell utau what octove note to use.

you know how some voicebanks have ↓ka ↑ka and ka well the prefix maps tell utau what octoves to use them in lets say your non-↓↑ samples have a range of c3-c4 well basiclly you tell utau via prefix map to use ↑ka for every ka above c4 and ↓ka for every ka below c3... someone can explain this better •_•

Oh, I see, so it lets you switch to a higher/lower sample after a certain pitch. That's helpful.

I now know what I'm doing for Act III. Super-range Kaen. *trumpet fanfare*

if you want a good example of a prefix map look at ritsu's

to access it (english patch)
tools > edit prefix map

i really don't think the new fresamp is the the new engine. and plus utau looks really different.. see all the stuff at the bottom of the video.. it's almost like vocaloid. just a new resampler 'could make utaus sound so real. i'm sure it's a lot more~

as i said in the beginning of this post, time can only tell

how do i watch the vid??? :3

You need a NND account.

Yeah, you need a NND account. If you don't have one, meanwhile you can listen to this -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5z7UHG85Qwk
It's not the same video, but it's still a test of this new "m4 engine", so you can listen how it sounds.
Anyway, I still suggest you to make an account on Nico, though, that video shows more interesting stuff in the interface that isn't shown in the one I linked.

Looks like there's another video, this time with Teto.

It's a letdown, but we still get to see more of the GREEN NOT PINK.

It would be nice if they did some songs with the new engine with Defoko, just so we could see how much she improves. Teto is already good, but if you took Defoko and made her sound godessly, I'd be much more excited.

im almost positive that if it comes out (it will at some point, but i doubt it will come out any time soon) it wont automatically fix you utau. =P it'll be alot of work to make them sound beautifull like in that one video. Alot like vocaloid i guess. they can sound OK without any pitch editing or anything, but they can sound freaking godlike if you know what youre doing @A@

Yeah, I guess so kyaami, I doubt it will work immediately.

Also, maybe green is the colour of the new engine.

Green is just the color that user mods their UTAU to.
The nice effect is probably fresamplers help, but in any case you would need a great oto file to make it sound any good at all JUST LIKE BEFORE. > 3>

Thank goodness for that! Imagine that I'll just record some random samples and I'll get a working UTAU.

Somewhere that doesn't sound as satisfying as what I'm doing now...

New video!
M4 stands for Model4 XD Derp
It is MUCH smoother, yes. Goddamn.

Ack! Can I get on NND at school? YES I CAN! *listens*

Aw man, those lyrics! xD I love 'em.

And it is smoother... Yuipoid isn't THAT smooth in my UTAU!

I went on NND on my school computer, after a few visits they wizened up and blocked it OTL

And dem lyrics. XDD

My school PC-tan doesn't get THAT wise, I can get access to this forum all the time, I even did this before last summer vacation.

Dem lyrics are amazing. A true piece of art!
