>>79Sonika is my favorite english voicebank so i'll continue using her. I know she's a pain in the ass to tune trust me i've done a lot of songs with her (most of which went unreleased), but out of all the english vbs she has my favorite voice and i feel like she has a lot of redeeming qualities.
The infamous Skype sound in her recordings that people always complain about isn't even a skype sound but loud reverb (she was likely recorded in some sort of house rather than a professional studio).

ive been fiddling around with synthv with eventual goal of putting lyrics to my songs using teto! but its been a gradual process and ive only been fooling around with the demo because synthv is too expensive at the moment and im too broke. Is there any way to set the piano roll to a certain scale?

you could do the katakanaized English route, I guess; it doesn't sound amazing but it's also not that bad
but my song is in Toki Pona since the phonemes line up really closely to Japanese
this is what I have so far, it's only like one pattern of music…

https://files.catbox.moe/4oqj7h.mp3I do wish I was clever enough to write lyrics that weren't basically "I have no idea what to write" and even if some of this is self-inflicted, I don't feel like I'd be writing more clever lyrics in eigo
like,
>mi sona ala e ni tan pakala mi; taso mi kalama e ni:translates badly but it's
>I don't know this because I screwed up, but I'm singing this:which loops back into itself, the second ni starts a continuation phrase against the start of it because I'm trying to be clever but I am also feeling incredibly un-clever at the same time.
I kinda wish I knew how to get the speech portion to sound better with this, I wish I had more pitch control with it, since I added straight speaking bits. I could probably edit it in post, which I'm already doing since the program doesn't like the fact that "a" in Toki Pona is a separate single word sound and it either makes a giant gap or tries to blend it against the surrounding words depending on how I try and fix it.
definitely did forget how much I liked making music though, I really needed to get back into this

I'm leaving the full song here. The person in charge of making the music video never got back to me and I have less than a dollar in my pocket to commission another artist to make it. On top of that I don't really have fun composing songs in this style so its best to leave it as an unreleased track. If you want to upload this on youtube or something go ahead I'll allow it. Sorry for disappointing you sonikabros. I promise I'll make more sonika songs in the future, perhaps under a different alias.

These fake Mesmerizer lost media videos have been popping up in my recommended for a while now and while I love the overall art style of them it was driving me nuts that not a single one of them got the musical style of 2010s Vocaloid right or would use KAFU (who didn't exist in the early 2010's) as Neru's voice so I tried my best here by listening to a lot of OwataP, LamazeP & other producers from that era.

If you wanna find good EN songs just search your favorite loid on youtube and filter by upload date.

This is so embarassing but I’ve had FL Studio for probably over half a decade at this point yet have never made anything longer than 15–45 seconds, any tips? How did you all learn to go from loops to finished songs?
I bought a MIDI keyboard a while ago (and 2 of the keys are broken, rip) and it has drumpads (and all of them work unlike the keys luckily,) I don’t have money for piano lessons right now though orz. I have Melodics as well but not enough money for the subscription which means I’m limited to 5 minutes a day. Youtube tutorials seem to be of little help.

I want to work on music but I've hit a block. I can either make an instrumental in 2-3 days or not at all. When I feel comfortable I'll probably post the thing I'm struggling with. It goes on way too long and I can't figure out what to do vocally. The song is intended for a male character I based on Miki 7 years ago, but Hayden and Kevin are both fitting voice-wise and I'm leaning towards Hayden. I feel a bit bad because I also have a lot of rarely-used VBs including Miki V2, but this probably not going to fit any of them and I'm tired of my originals capping at 500 views as much as I'm scared of what popularity may bring.
>>2648This sounds amazing so far! Looking forward to what you do with it.
