I’m so excited to announce that Aiko will be featured on the upcoming EXIT TUNES UTAU compilation: UTAUMiRAi! CrusherP’s song “Biohazard” is on the tracklist!
The album includes Teto, Kakoi, Ritsu, Momo and Renri, and preorders will be packaged with a lot of cool goodies like buttons and posters! It releases in Japan on November 15th, but preorders are already available on many online anime/music goods stores such as CDJapan.
(The YouTube CM below may not play if you are in the US, many apologies!)
Just a couple of brief updates!
First, Aiko’s page has been updated to show her new 2017 official character art! I wanted a bit more of a dynamic pose than last year’s, so I decided to go ahead and revamp it!
Also, I forgot to post my Rayfes cover here! Rayfes is Homurane Ray’s birthday festival, held each year between August 8th and 22nd. She’s one of my favorite Japanese UTAU, so I always try to participate! Though I’ll have something else featuring Ray coming very soon…
It’s been a while! I have several things to catch up on, so I’ll get the quick stuff out of the way first.
I updated all voicebank download links on Aiko’s wiki, and I’m in the process of switching her Facebook page over to a general Studio VOXYZ fanpage! While the URL change was easy enough though, Facebook is being stubborn in allowing me to change the page name. So there’s a chance it might stay in Aiko’s name. However, I’m going to start using it to post a lot more stuff Studio VOXYZ related!
And now for the videos I’d neglected to post! Aiko’s birthday was on the 10th of this month, and as a send-off to her English CVVC (as I’ll be focusing on recording VCCV), I posted a remake of an older cover: “Fireflies” by Owl City!
(Yes. Mostly for the memes.)
If you’re curious, you can hear the old cover here.
Also, I’m proud to announce my third original song! I produced “Siren’s Lament” for the MIRIAM 13th Anniversary collaboration “The Lady and the Silver Circle”, a 7-song compilation album which you can download for free here!
I tried to go for a sea-shanty feel in my song, which tells the story of a mermaid/siren (MIRIAM) who falls in love with a human (LOLA). And though he doesn’t sing, I intended for LEON to be the sailor mentioned in the lyrics! Perhaps someday I’ll make a full PV with all 3 of them…
YoiStyle and AkiGlancy have revealed Aiko’s MMD model that will be used in the VOCAMERICA concerts!
The model will only be available privately and to those who purchased a high enough tier in the VOCAMERICA kickstarter.
Below is the life-size banner design that will eventually be ordered for the concerts!
Hey all! It’s been hectic over here, and it’s way late into September for me to be posting a much-belated August features, so I’m going to be posting a dual-month entry on October 1st.
I have a few things coming up that I’m pretty excited about. For one, a generous UTAU user has been currently working on splicing up Aiko’s CVVC samples and is nearly done! I’ll re-release Aiko’s CVVC as V.6.1 as soon as I receive the fixed bank. This should fix any resampler/FRQ errors she’s been having.
Also, I’m working on another original song. Normally I wouldn’t post anything about this sort of project, but seeing as the deadline is Halloween day, I figured this might be the sort of kick in the rear I need to get things moving. The lyrics are around half done and the song will likely use Sonika, since I should try my hand at actually making Vocaloid stuff once in a while.
Also, to those asking about Aiko’s VCCV, I plan to finish BalladSoft as soon as I get the time/space to do so. And there’s a bit of a chance that’ll happen this weekend. So here’s hoping.
That’s all for now!
