VCV

Hi there, I posted the original question in the wrong forum-section, oof...

Let's try that again then.

I'm fairly new to VCV voice banks, and I dipped my toes in the recording method for a few weeks now,
I have recorded a list, which has been oto-edited separately by two people (myself and a friend of mine)

I followed the usual tutorials on the oto-editing, the parameters of preutterance and overlap, aliassing etc.
I have tried the crossfades, reset envelopes, re-editing the files themselves, however, for some reason, the voice still refuses to make sound, and the sounds she does make sound garbled. And this happens to both my version of the edits, and my friend's version of the edits. And she knows far more about edits than me..

I have set locale to Japanese, re-installed the UTAU synth program itself, messed around with the oto-edits to no end, and I'm still at a loss what is causing it to not work properly.

Anyone have any ideas what the issues might be?

May I know which resampler you are using?
This is the default one, and the ones I currently have in the folder are

Bkh01, EFB-GT, EFB-GW, EFB-PB, freesamp, freesamp14, freesamp14omp, model4, moresampler, phavoco,
resampler_ug, TIPS, tn_fnds, utaugrowl, vs4u & warp.

I've tried MoreSampler, didn't work, as all it does it maker her sound extremely robotic.
TIPS has .. never worked for some reason, not even with my CV voicebank (which works fine)

I've tried different wavtools, but since I no longer own them, I think they didn't do much for older voice banks either.

Resampler related issue, you think?

When you said that Moresampler does not work because it makes her sound extremely robotic, does her skipping some notes still occur too?

Yes, some might still be skipped. She reads more notes than per usual, and it still sounds garbled, but she's more...
I don't wanna say fluent ... But, she performs somewhat better. But that's going from a 2 to a 2.5, honestly..

For the samples sounding garbled, it might have something to do with her frqs. Could you maybe send a screenshot of one of her sample's frq?
However, for her to skip some notes might have something to do with the resampler but I can't really say for sure about it.

If you are referring to her frequency list, that doesn't exist, as all it shows is a ... circle? (in the voice bank settings itself)
as for the frequency map itself, I can look for a random sample file.. However, this is something I've never messed around with personally,
not even my CV banks, since they have always worked fine..

A circle means that the frq is already generated. The frq that you showed seems fine.
Could you maybe send the UTAU so I can check it personally? That might be faster, I think?
It's alright if you don't want to.

Have you reset the UST by clearing all of the note properties?

Also, could you send another screenshot of the voice configuration window (the oto spreadsheet thing that you sent earlier) I just wanna see if anything has changed since reinstalling UTAU.

Any files in particular, or the same one?

Certainly, I could upload the current bank to my sta.sh on DA, if that's a platform you use.

Any section is fine, but the more you can send in one screenshot the better (I probably just need one screenshot though)

Yeah, I'm at a loss at this point because the oto screenshots look fine. I might take a look at the VB itself too if that's OK

Do you use DeviantArt as well? It's the ony free-to-use platform that can host such large files.
I mean, I don't but won't I still be able to download it? If you're looking for other options, DropBox, MediaFire, Mega, and Google Drive all offer free file hosting. They may have some limitations on total uploads but I don't believe most of them have limitations on individual file size.

I don't know, actually, if non-deviant users can access a user's sta.sh ... You can always give it a go.
