Weekly Overseas UTAU Forum News 5

Hello everyone!


From the cold depths of our Overseas UTAU Forum, I present to you: our weekly newscast! With all the new and cool things happening in the world of (overseas) UTAU! But first: We are recruiting! The news departement is looking for people who want to contribute and help! If you want to help us (me) out, contact me through the forums. My name is smeen. Just send me a PM or something.

So, on to the real news. And we have something exiting today! New technique, developed for UTAU! Yes, this new technique, developed with the M4-engine we talked earlier about, will work similliar as VocaListener and makes UTAU more real-sounding. Listen to a test, made with Defoko (Uta Utane), Teto Kasane and Momo Momone here:

Sounds very, very nice, don't you think? Exiting news indeed. When this technique will be released is not said, and this is just a beta test, but we can't wait to see more of it!

Over to the new voicebanks. We have a lot of new UTAUs for you this week again. Take your time and let me introduce them to you all.
