No. Just.... no.

I've decided to give up on UTAU for the time being. But the reason why is pretty stupid/wierd/strange.
---
Earlier I wanted to try and give Kii an ACT3, using Audacity. When I got to "sa" and "shi", when I played them in UTAU they sounded so slurry, even with the oto.

SSSSSSssss-aaaaaaaa/SSSsssss-shiiiiii <- something like that, even though I recorded the sounds like normal.
---
I don't know why UTAU did that, but I got so mad because I had to keep re-recording in hope that it could be fixed. I was wrong. (Mind you, this was version 2.71 of UTAU.)
So, I'm giving up for. At least, until a newer version of UTAU comes around. When that happens, I'll be back to fixing my UTAUs in no time.

It doesn't mean I'll be leaving the UTAU Forums, though. I'll still be here, checking in on things.

When I had been encountering that problem, I switched to OREMO.

Try it. It might change your mind about things.

I've been using OREMO for Fuyu, Kitsu, Lilith and Viai. I thought using Audacity would be nice for a change.

Audacity is the reason I made an ACT2. x_x

It freezes, it instantly closes, it has suckish recording quality, etc.

Audacity tends to cause glitching I've been fixing some voice banks today and found that problem a few times.

I'd suggest going back to OREMO, at least for the sounds UTAU screws up.
If it still makes it sound odd, Try adding an alias and using that, or if you were using an alias, try using the file name.

I know that this happens for Hayaos "r" and some other files in his ACT.2 when I use his Aliasing. D: Could be that?

Hmm, sometimes it helps if you delete the .frq file for the messed-up sound and make a new one.

Don't give up~ T__T

1. FRQ file not redone?
2. Did you cut the beginning S/Sh in half with the OTO.ini? Because leaving it entirely intact will still do that.

1. Everytime I re-recorded a sound file, I always made a new frq file for it, so no.
2. No. The oto file actually made it slur.

I've been doing pretty much everything you guys are asking me about.I'm not THAT dumb D:< I guess OREMO is the only way to go, but I just need a break from UTAU for now. Viai's otos/sounds have been giving me trouble D: as well as Fuyu's ACT3.

*laughs at people and their normal microphones*
Sorry.
Anyway, I never had that problem (that's weird)
But maybe can you try messing with the oto.ini, that helped me a lot too when I had a screwed note.

No no, "messing" isn't the right term..."Messing" means to just input random numbers on the blank spaces in the Voice Configuration window. I don't want the next generation of UTAUers be like that...*shudder*

The correct term would be..."coarse-tuning" =D

^I actually did that back when I knew nothing about how to work UTAU Dx

So anyway, I'm going to give up on Kii's ACT3 for now and just work on Viai for a moment.
