Well. I have a volunteer artist, who works with me on a regular basis. About others I don't know yet, since I started free. Besides, I don't want Sora to become the next Teto, Ritsu or Ruko. I want him to be known a bit; just so I'm not the ONLY one using his voicebanks.
Everyone wants someone to enjoy using their UTAU.
I'm not saying you want him to be the next Teto. I'm just saying, having PVs of covers featuring him would really help your UTAU get better known, as would originals. For example, Servant of Evil. I think you'd get a lot more views on a cover of that with its own PV than just taking already existing PVs for the song that feature Len. See my point? I'm only trying to tell you what I think'd help.
[doublepost=1488999095,1488997983][/doublepost]I'm really not trying to be mean. I'm trying to be honest.
Having all these extra banks and things
planned doesn't mean anything to anyone who uses UTAU. It is once the UTAU
publicly has all these capabilities that eyebrows raise and people become curious. I understand what you're feeling - I am hopeful people enjoy TYPE A, too. But I also understand the shortcomings of my UTAU - he doesn't have multipitch, nor does he have any sort of extra expression bank (appends, as a lot call them). And until he gets those things, along with more artwork, actual PVs, and the like, I know he won't become an UTAU with a name familiar to most. And I'm willing to work with that without throwing a fit about it. Because I will get to updates, but I don't whine about how no one cares about my UTAU while those updates aren't even a reality yet.
Tbh, it really feels like you're trying to shove Sora into our view and push everything else out, with promises of updates and extras and multilingual capabilities. But until those are a reality to potential users, we won't really have a lot of interest. Until you've got multiple artists and video composers at your hand to help with interesting release demos, and maybe even composers to help with songs, even the releases for your UTAU bank's appends probably won't be noticed very much simply because you have so much to compete with. Another thing to consider, is, when working with such a huge list of updates.....do you have help otoing to get Sora's banks out in a good timeframe? Do you have beta testers to run through the otos and make sure nothing was configured incorrectly?
You've got to take points like these into consideration, as well.
