So, this is probably weird. But when working on my presentation for UTAU, I decided to present some of the most famous voices. One of them was Yokune Ruko. People were at first surprised that Ruko was a hermaphrodite and kinda confused, but liked the idea that an UTAU provided alternate voices if someone liked the character, but disliked the voice. So i had this Idea:
What if there was an UTAU available with a female and male voice, a young,a teenage and a mature voice?
So I am proposing to create a, well, let's call it a shapeshifting UTAU. An Utau that can change from male to female and vice versa, as well as change from a young age of - lets say 11 - to a teenager of 17 or 18 and to an adult of 26 age.
So that would leave us with 6 different voices and voice providers for ONE Utau. I think the ages should be decided by the voice providers, which leads me to my next point whixh are the voice characteristics.
Okay so i think the young voices should represent young girls and boys respectively. The young girl should have a sweet tone, while the young boy should rather go for a sassy tone. Because lets face the clichés: Young Girls are sweet and nice, while Young Boys are sassy and a bit mean. Not all tho of course heh.
Anyways I think the Teenage Banks should go for something powerful or emotional. Lets face it guys, or rebellous and/or emotional phases were/are in our teenage years. Well for some they are right now.
The Adult voicebanks should of course be mature, and deep. For the male think of Gackpo, for the female Ritsu or Sachiko. YES I KNOW RITSU IS A 6 YEAR OLD BOY BUT HE SOUNDS LIKE A MATURE WOMAN.
This will definitely be a community based project, so i count on the voicers!
Character Details and Design are the next important things here. Okay so the Personality or -ies don't matter that much to me, but whatever we can talk about that once we gather ourselves. The name should be something unisex, but well I thought of 'Koe' - simply meaning voice. So so far, for me the name for this project is 'Project Koe'. The Designs should probably represent the ages well, so for the young voices, maybe something school uniform-ish, for Teenage maybe the same, but more rebellious, and for the Adult...well something mature...wait no not THAT mature.
Anyways I'm hoping that you are all interested in Project Koe, and will help make this UTAU come to live!
If Project Koe actually becomes a thing, stay tuned for more news regarding it!
EDIT: I forgot to add the Voicers for Project Koe//rip.
