Introduction to Making Vocaloid Music for Beginners in Vocaloid4

[@dorianmodemusic8950]

me looks at comment goes online has a mac hovers to utorrent downloads lifetime trial with all features

[@connordoesexist1807]

Download Vocaloid without buying is illegal, and making original songs with it can get a producer to be hated. Take Circus P, for example, he uses Pocaloid (illegal versa of Vocaloid) and others got absolutely pissed off. You have no idea how long it took Circus to recover from that hate. Using Pocaloid for cover song is perfectly fine.

[@myshitpostaccountakaleon5820]

Of course it's Illegal, what else would it be? Money dont grow on tree's. I got my greedy cats to feed.

[@amitori]

Quick question. ;w; Can you import wav. or MP3 files Into vocaloid while your making the vocals, ya know, for 'cover' purposes so I don't have to make the instrumentals separately...?

[@shikshak5928]

i've done it before. if you're using vocaloid 3, you should be able to.

[@kwylwa8850]

Don't even have the Vocaloid software. I'm trying to get as much info as I can about the software and how to use it before I actually get it. One question-you can make notes longer and stuff right? I'm just wondering if you can change the pitch in the same note? I imagine you can make something like that either in the way I imagine or something idk about

[@tiko5786]

Kookie Kylie yeah i think so

[@italyisntreal]

Woah same dude

[@SlurySparx]

Yes! If a word is sung through different notes you type the whole lyric in the first note and then input a - for the other notes. Its a learning process for sure but its fun to just mess with

[@lidlyp]

If I buy Vocaloid V4 Editor... 1. What Vocaloids will be there? 2. Is that enough to make songs? 3. Does it work on any PC?

[@biglarge2477]

1. Unfortunately, no VOCALOIDs come with the V4 editor. You have to purchase them serperately, and they are quite expensive. But, if memory serves, you don't need to buy the V4 editor if you can figure out how to use Piapro. The VOCALOID known that is one of the easiest to tune is IA. 2. Unfortunately, no, it is not. It only covers the vocals. If you are looking for a free program to create the instrumental, I suggest LMMS. Of course, you need to know basic music theory AT LEAST for your music to sound decent. 3. Generally, yes, V4 and Piapro both work on PCs.

[@lidlyp]

I meant, is this enough to make the vocals and all :) What is Piapro?

[@biglarge2477]

Salty Marshmallow Yes, it is enough to make the vocals. Of course, it takes a lot of practice and time to make the vocals sound human-like. Piapro is like a free version of the V4 editor, I don't think it has all the components of the editor, but it has all the necessary parts I don't know how to get it working, though, sorry.

[@lidlyp]

Thanks! One more thing, I thought V4 had Miku automatically

[@biglarge2477]

Salty Marshmallow (Sorry for the late reply.) Unfortunately, it does not come with any voice bank as far as I'm aware.

[@キラミツキ]

I was thinking about getting vocaloid so i looked it up. thanks! :)

[@JaimeColere]

Traditionally they sing Japanese? Lol. Traditionally they sing English, the first three Vocaloids ever made were English, Japanese got popular because Yamaha had a better sound script for Japanese, they didn't have a good one for English and so the Japanese Vocaloid gained popularity while English Vocaloids kind of died off

[@janerym4130]

SpartanSinger926 thank you

[@virginiacaynak1141]

Actually now they have a lot of really great english vocaloids, though they don't have all of the phonemes necessary to make them sound perfect. I know that Ruby in particular is wonderful at pronunciation and actually the newly released Miku V4 English is quite good! The various companies in charge of the various vocaloids are pushing hard to diversify their market to places like China and America so recent releases see a lot of really good vocaloids in those languages.

[@virginiacaynak1141]

cyber diva, cyber songman, ruby, dex, and diana are all voiced by native english speakers in v4. in previous iterations, oliver is also naturally english voiced.

[@JaimeColere]

All of you commenting saying that they have good V4 English, I know! I didn't mention that because I was telling him why that misunderstanding came about, also the scripts are made for universal English. If you want it to pronounce color the British way, put in colour and it corrects the phenomes most people use American English spellings of words and so you get the American pronunciation.

Hey, im going to be getting this software soon, and I was wondering if you knew how the types of vocaloids worked?

Im only picking on you cause your the most recent comment I seen haha, but if you have anymore knowledge than me then I'd love to hear if you could tell me anything I'd need to know about purchasing one of these;)

[@dany27P]

what software does DECO*27 use?

[@biglarge2477]

Man, there are quite a few things you didn't cover in this video. For example, you only mentioned Cyber Diva, but she's not the only VOCALOID capable of speaking English. Ruby, DAINA, DEX, Avanna, Big Al, and SONiKA are a few examples of American/British VOCALOIDS. Of course, there are also VOCALOIDs who have the capabilities of singing in more than one language, with a different voicebank. For example, Hatsune Miku, Luka, (basically all the cryptonloids), GUMI, and FUKASE all have both Japanese and English voice banks. There are also Chinese VOCALOIDs, like Luo Tianyi and Stardust, along with Spanish VOCALOIDs, MAIKA, Bruno & Clara. What about importing VSQxs, and MIDIs? That's also possible in the V4 engine. You didn't go over how to tune, or how phonemes work at all. Please elaborate on your knowledge of VOCALOID before attempting to make an instructional video.

[@kroduss4802]

Oliver can speak english right? (Im thinking of secrets of wysteria o-o)

[@Rinkutsu]

SnowyStormz yes

[@mastapetz]

a video for beginners, gets whined at for not mentioning everything that is possible in a 6 minute video I bet you took more than 6 minutes to write this all down) Why not mention the south african dialects too, or why not mention Lola? And nah in v4 miku does not have english voicebanks yet, in v2 and v3 maybe, but not v4

[@Rinkutsu]

Mastapetz Miku DOES in fact have a V4 English voice bank there are demos for her English on the official Hatsune Miku channel

[@WebkinzLiker264]

He said he was new to the program himself. Maybe he didn't know that?

[@lillyp7208]

Can you use a Japanese voice bank to make english words? I'm considering getting a Kaito voice bank and he doesn't have an english voice bank.

[@kinokanadechi]

You can, but it sounds a bit weird.

[@Notchella1]

I've literally only just started looking into this, yours is the first video I've watched, and I'm wondering once you've made the lyrics you want I assume you export it in some way to have her voice file. From this can you add this file to things like Garage band and Soundation Studio and made the instrumental alongside her singing? Sorry, really unsure on how any of this process works.

[@banland.warden]

uh, question- i was wanting to use Fukase's voicebank and i was wondering if i'd have to get vocaloid5 too..? since the toning and editing for Fukase's voice actually sounds a lot better in there, and was wondering if I should get both so I could either download Fukase's voicebank, use VL4 for an easier usage since he's meant to be used in VL4.. or go the way that would sound better, edit in VL4, but use VL5 to tone.. i'm still a beginner, and honestly have only ever made songs with Miku, and am fretting that i wont be use to using a male voice ahaauhjajfknfmabngj

Do you make the instrumental sounds/music in vocaloid 4 editor as well or is that done in a seperate program and then imported? What program could I use to make music for vocaloid if the editor is not capable of doing so?

[@ranshibuki9659]

you have to make the music/instrumentals in another program (like FL Studio, LMMS, Sony Vega, etc) yes the music can be imported into VOCALOID Editor, but the opposite can also be done. The vocals can be exported and put into the program used to make the music

[@brqe]

Make sure whatever Vocaloid you're using takes whatever Voicebank you're trying to use. For example, Vocaloid 4 won't take Voicebanks from Vocaloid 1 or 2. This doesn't fix everything, but it might help.

[@Cupofcappuccy]

i have a question (i hope you answer it by the way) how can we use singer editor?

[@milkydudd53]

1. dose this work on a mac 2. how much dose it cost 3. how much do the singers cost

[@Phagastick]

I think there is a version for mac. The software costs around 100$ and the singers around the same

[@noir3600]

i use mac, and here's my advice : just buy a crypton vocaloid, it came with an alternate editor called piapro studio and a DAW called studio one 3 APE [ Buy A V4x, the earlier piapro studio does NOT support V4 ]

[@C4t_p3ach]

this only works for windows right?

[@bikerscout2012]

I'm curious about Vocaloid, is it totally Japanese? I have a program in Japanese to strip vocals from a song if you drag drop both the song and instrumental mp3 which a lot of idol singles have instrumentals and about 6/10 times it strips the acapella. I'm lazy and busy working 60hrs a week and haven't had time for music. Let me know if you're interested and I'll try to find the webpage for you

So where does the music come into vocaloid? I've been thinking of getting the software but kinda concerned on what I may or may not be able to do with it. It cost a lot of money so I'd like to know the limitations on it before I invest in it.

[@JohnDoe-ig3cg]

if u want to make ur own music use fruityloops or check out some free stuff on utube

[@App.ollo_]

You can try free demos

[@booboojunky7691]

Vocaloids could only provide you the vocal part if you plan to make songs, and it's somehow expensive because you will also have to buy the editor, so I would say you would need around 120-180$ to buy 1 vocal and and an editor, Crypton's vocaloids also come with an editor so you will not need to buy the editor separately, but their voice qualities are not the best among the market. English vocaloids are cheaper than japaneseloids for some reasons and vocaloids tend to produce lots of characteristics than human voice so it is quite fun to hear them sing and ultilize them in various ways like for harmonies, back-up vocals, telephone ringtone,etc ... it can sing but for rapping or reading it can not, unless you play with the PIT and have superb understanding of tuning in the editor. So that's the basic understanding I can offer to you And yes both the editors and some vocals have trials, you can go and check it out to see if you like them or not

[@connordoesexist1807]

Neo Blaze The Vocaloid program only contains the vocal. If you want to add music, use a separate program, and then import the music. Or export the vocal to the music program.

[@neoblaze9040]

Well that's disappointing so you pay 300 to 400 dollars and you don't even get the full process isn't that like false advertisement?
