I'm planning to set up the Academy of UTAU, a system by which newbies can find a tutor to teach them 1 on 1 how to use UTAU and do other UTAU-related things. All of the tutors would collaborate on a lesson plan for a core set of lessons, as well as designing additional more specific lessons for their specializations. These lessons could later be made into a series of tutorials.

Anyone looking to become a tutor for the academy should have at least one method of contact (including instant messaging) and know how to do these things.
- Prepare computer and install UTAU
- Using UTAU (entering notes/editing note parameters (flags, pitchbend/vibrato, etc), built in tools)
- Install/use plugins and resamplers (Windows users only)
- Voicebank file structure and release procedure
- OTOing CV, VCV, and CVVC
As well as an additional specialization, such as writing original songs, artwork, writing reclists, etc.

I'm interested!!! I can teach people about design and tuning. I can also teach how to oto CV and VCV. If the student is a Malaysian or an Indonesian, it will be easier for me cause I'm not good in English tbh.

I appreciate the entries, but would it be alright if we double check the OP for base skills? Specifically, I'd like to have people who are proficient at creating high quality CV, VCV, and CVVC otos without needing any help, at the level where you can easily teach others. If CVVC is a weakness, then I'm not sure how helpful you can be. CVVC is a very prominent and highly useful oto style.

UTAforum tutors, would you (and/or possibly other forum staff and prominent community members) be interested in this UTAU school concept? Tutoring individuals, teaching classes, writing lessons/a textbook (text tutorials), making video tutorials.

CVVC is not my weakness. I know how to oto a CVVC but I don't really work on CVVC . I'm comfortable with VCV and CV.

I dont have problem with any oto stuff at all so cvvc works to . As long as the utau sings in the end its good . My favorite way of utau reclist stays cv . I think its much more fun

Chances are very likely that they're free, considering that many members of the community are without their own means of income (or have a limited budget if they do work).

Sorry, are you applying to join the utau school staff? Or just replying on my behalf?




@Shibaru 101 @MANIAGIRLKITTY

I've added you both to my notes.

I've currently got 6 people on the team, I may stop when I get 10 or so- but with a focus on 1 to 1 tutoring, new tutors will be welcome to meet demands.

BTW I can make video and/or textbook tutorials/lessons if needed. I planned to do something similar on Vocaloid Amino tbh but it's not a nice work flow.

Why would reply on Lofe's behalf if you're not part of the staff, not sent by Lofe, or not even the OP (Lofe)?
A poster asked an innocuous question that has what appears to be an obvious answer (unless my eyesight is worse than I thought and I missed a detail regarding payments, compensation, etc. which would imply that the tutorial services offered aren't free), so... I answered. If Lofe has a problem with this, they have the means to address me directly themselves. If it was intended to be a paid service, Lofe wouldn't have left something like that unaddressed in the OP.

I've currently gotten 6 people signed up to help with this, I'm still waiting until there's 10 people before I want to start doing actual work on the project.
