【UTAU tutorial #5】How to make an UTAU cover

[@JacobKinsley]

Using FL Studio for aligning music tracks is the equivelant of using a diamond encrusted knife to make a sandwich

[@youngsoundp]

So, extremely effective?

[@aykad4738]

@@youngsoundp Stupidly effective

[@bouncybird2331]

Too effective

[@bright_chan8367]

Jacob Rendall im broke so if your broke i recommend using a free mixing software because the more expensive usually the more complicated

I can't believe KZbin deleted my Minecraft related reply...

[@shelbyingram6469]

I've noticed that some USTs are in romaji. To anyone who doesn't know how to type in Japanese, I suggest installing the romaji to hirigana plugin.

[@Peruvianfluteband69]

Thank you

[@goldia_dieheilige]

or just make your keyboard japanese, it helps

[@goldia_dieheilige]

by that i dont mean getting ur irl keyboard that you press on to type stuff into the computer/laptop, you can set the language on the computer/laptop. its a setting i think haha

[@goldia_dieheilige]

oh wait no im dumb but you could still use that yourself in another way i think

[@iamsodumbtoday9374]

omg thank you ive been looking everywhere for a hiragana ust this will help a lot

I'm so sad this tutorial series is discontinued. I just found it and found it so helpful and loved it! I'm not sure if it was due to personal issues or just lack of interest, but if you ever decided to continue the series, it would be so cool.

[@crypnotic_dreamscape]

6 and 7 are simply deleted/werent posted, but 8(the plugins one), 9, and 10(demonstration of their tuning process) are still up and in the playlist!!

For anyone who came back to this tut for how to fit a ust like me! Heres how to fit one: 4:23

[@TheViolaBuddy]

4:51 Those buttons are like magic! I was wondering how to get the sounds to not sound so choppy, so I was trying to manually adjust each envelope, which was... time consuming, to say the least. Is there a quick explanation on what each of those actually does?

[@Yuunarii]

Uhm.. Well the reset button resets all the envelopes to their default value o3o ACPT has also something to do with resetting stuff to their normal value.. And.. The P2P3 and P1P4 are for the crossfading between the samples :0 (everything up to the green line within the oto configurations will be fully crossfaded with the previous note) Oww yeah and the OPT button optimizes the UST for crossfading.. However most of the time everything is already optimized so.. I don't use that button ^^

[@TheViolaBuddy]

Ah, thanks!

[@Paradysium]

Bailey and Fudge are so cute!

[@annamark8265]

thank you for this tutorial series! I've been listening to vocaloid and utau since I was a teenager and wanted to start making some of my own :)

hmm, i've downloaded utau and the voicebank using the japanese local setting thing but whenever i play a note, it doesn't play and when i render it, it just sounds like something on the piano.

[@PrincessNiki05]

also i've used both hiragana and romaji ust's and nothing

[@pedros5985]

KawaiiCookiePuff um if you haven't resolved the issue yet I'd try a different UST. make sure the UST type matches the VB type. and check you have the right resampler and everything selected.

[@hunipyon4889]

hey! thank you for this tutorial it really helps. however every time i try to play the song it says "failed to generate wav. file" i have not found anything that would fix this so if you know anything that would help me fix this it'd be great! im using a romaji voicebank and the ust is romaji just so you know so its not about the type of text i believe.

[@paradoxity_]

Your profile pic though. Fucking Doki Doki.

[@paradoxity_]

artemis ugh same

[@CodeBroRob]

ok so i got trouble making it work first i installed it, went flawlessly, then installed the voicebank but when i wanted to make it say something as you showed in the tutorials it wont make any sound i figured i would need to reinstall so i did, it worked smoother now but now i can't select a voice bank.. not even the default one.. using windows 10 pro btw

[@KettleSeph]

This was great! :0 Now there will finally be a Mawarine Shuu cover for Say So. >:D

[@AstreilLen]

i literally have only the zip thingy and not win rar. how amazing.

[@FCMCC15]

Hi Yuu, I had recently thought of installing UTAU and your videos helped a lot. I downloaded Fushi Murasaki's Violet and Cyan voicebanks but the violet one doesn't sing. I could briefly see the window that pops up-the command prompt?-and i read "file load error". Should i try deleting then downloading her voicebank again?

[@尘星-h3i]

FCMCC15 it doesn't help cuz I have the same problem;^^

[@weldchickn2270]

Make sure you are typing in the correct syllables. Since she is VCV, you have to put a vowel before each Hiragana character (ex: a あ, o と)　　I had the same problem until I figured that out. If you're already doing this, then I don't know how to help. :(

[@Yuunarii]

Tutorial 7 hasn't been made either yet. Tutorial 7 will be about flags and resamplers. I'll probably make it within now and the next few months ^^

[@uwusyndrome]

What if you want to cover a vocaloid song? :p

[@andromxda]

I'm pretty sure you can download a VSQX file, the vocaloid file, then import it to a UST, but im new to this, so I'm not completely sure.

[@samy7342]

Yes theres a converter

You can also see if anyone made it themselves. (whoops that im 3 years late lol)

[@otakuness4470]

Um, I fixed the ust to my utau like you said too, but there's still a problem, she's extremely choppy. Now, yes, I provided her voice.. and I don't know how to fix it. She doesn't hold out short sounds. I'm trying to make her sing the lost one's weeping, but she only says the first letter of every word. ;w;

[@Yuunarii]

Hmm.. That's strange.. Well.. Seeing how you did make her sing stuff, I'm assuming you did get the UST type correct. And.. If you have made a CV UTAU, than that's why she sounds choppy :0 My 3rd tutorial goes into detail regarding this, so I recommend watching it if you haven't already ^^ Aside from that.. The only reason I can think of why she only says the first letter of each syllable though is.. Oto errors ^^; So.. Perhaps try rechecking her oto ^^

[@sodaleche]

This video was really helpful! ^u^ I was able to make a cover with Defoko and I was hoping to upload it, but I have a question. How were you able to upload your own audio (the cover of My Will) to KZbin?? I exported it as a .WAV file, but I'm not sure what to do from there

[@starpalace3398]

Well, for KZbin uploads you need video. Use Windows movie maker (or iMovie depending on your computer) to insert the WAV file and make a video for it. The simplest way would be to find a nice picture of Defoko and use that throughout the whole video.

[@hasanmuttaqin464]

been digging internet wayback machine to find certain ust

[@SarahAli-fi4no]

How do I convert the utau file into a mp3? Also what mixer program do you use?

[@Yuunarii]

All audio files you export from UTAU will be in .wav format. You'll need a different program to convert it to mp3. Personally I use FL Studio, but you can also use other mixer programs like Audacity and Reaper.

[@SarahAli-fi4no]

[@izamlover49]

Hii, I know that this is kinda dead but sometimes the utau won't sing certain notes in the ust, does anyone know how to fix this? I've already tried using other utaus but those wouldn't sing those same notes either, so the utau doesn't seem to be the problem. This doesnt just happen with one ust in particular, but kinda in every single project that I start. I'm quite frustrated because I can't seem to find anyone with the same struggle T-T

[@ArtBrawl]

I'm still trying to figure out why utau isn't singing. I did everything the videos said and I even got a voice bang in Japanese, and I can type hiragana in it, but still no sounds at all

EDIT: i also keep getting these little [!] boxes throughout the screen when i open the UST??? what?? the fuck??

Okay, So that error message really means nthing, and the ! boxes go away once you fit the UST, the show up because the current UTAU isn't fitted to the bank

What do you use to make your voice sound vocaloid-ish?! ITS AMAZING!!!

[@Yuunarii]

What exactly do you mean?

[@cosmiclulu9001]

I mean what did you use to make your own vocaloid voice to add to the soundtrack?

[@Yuunarii]

To make your own UTAU you'll first have to record a number of syllables in an audio recording program (usually ranging from 150 to 2000+ recordings, depending on what type of), then configure them within the UTAU program, and add some additional information files. The process as to how to do this is very complex, so I can't really explain it in this comment ^^;
