Little something I’ve been working on>https://voca.ro/149scJNCrXoz
>>51134289
>>51134320Thanks for listening nonetheless anon
>>51134289is this cyber diva?
>>51134364Luka v4!
>>51134343These synths are really chaotic and atonal, the kicks are overpowering making it hard to hear vocals or anything, vocal has no flow, seems kind of chopped and recited with barely any melody.Not a music producer so can't give you any hints, but that's kind of how it sounds for me.
>>51134406I appreciate the honest feedback
>>51134289While it's not 4chan store theme tier, that's what I was reminded of in this moment. It sounds like a bad attempt at EDM. The record scratch synth if that's what it is plays like a weird metronome, what the other guy said about the vocals, I'm not sure what is even being said even in the parts where you can hear the vocals. Cockerate on your zone? My energy becoming home? Also, going loud works best when the music is clear. The part where it tries to go hard around 19 seconds in just sounds messy. The only sound that comes out clear is the drums while everything else just blends together indistinctly.
>>51134289I like it anonit's too earrapey but you have something going on here
>>51134900Thank you for listening. Ngl I’m embarrassed, thought I had something worth sharing. Don’t feel obligated but do you like this one any better?https://voca.ro/1npufDCzxjkY>>51134937Thank you!
>>51134949This is vastly better. Everything sounds a lot cleaner, effects stand out and have their proper moments, only thing I take issue with is I still don't hear what the vocals are saying. I might be able to parse them with subtitles or something, but they're really hard to make out.
>>51134979I’m glad you think so! I’ll have to see if I can mix or tune the vocals to be more understandable
Is there a list of best-selling vocaloid albums anywhere?
>>51134090Can you post guro on blue boards?
Why are songs today all short meme tiktokified zoomer shit with no class and no meaning or purpose other than to go viral / get popular? Y'know with how popular these are they are the new standards right?I shortly watched some of the popular ones and my recommendations were filled with teto+miku imitation songs with 500k to 1mil views all trying the same short viral formatI feel like japanese are thinking this nowadays"Ah, making a song I want to make isn't worth it, I better use teto and try to make a short viral song" meh I guess its only natural when a fanbase gets mainstream, I dont really care
>>51135365It's because of Mesmerizer, then other songs capturing the success like Daidaidaikirai further making it an issue. People feel like they have to use Miku or Teto for any chance of a song getting views at all. I've seen producers make one song with them and it gets excellent views, then while they get more views later, it'll have a sharp dropoff of them from (for example) 50k down to 1-2k with the biggest difference just being vocal choices. This means they feel trapped and forced to perform, even if they have a different favorite vocal. You can actually see this with big producers in the space, too. Tiktok tourists and kids will only watch things that feature either Miku or Teto, and nothing else unless they like Yi Xi, Adachi Rei, or a Vocaloid of choice (normally either Gumi or Rin) that most other tourists don't care about anymore.
>>51135365Vocaloid music right now is in a similar state to non-vocaloid music where all the mainstream stuff is soulless and made for virality and you gotta dig deep to find the good stuff. It's still being made, but it's never gonna reach the same level of popularity.
>>51135365stop relying on automated recommendations
>>51134949>Ngl I’m embarrassed, thought I had something worth sharingNo need to be embarrassed, most people here, me included, would probably perform even worse. That's how it is with producing music, you gotta make a lot of earrape over and over again until you "get it", at least that's what /mu/ says. It's still worth it to share because when you keep working and listening to one piece for long time you might not really realize that something is off until you give it to some fresh ears.>https://voca.ro/1npufDCzxjkYMixing, vocal flow and sample/instrument choice is significantly better here. Composition could be made more interesting, but at least it is listenable.
>>51135365>songs today all>watched some of the popular ones>songs with 500k to 1milDo you realize how silly you sound?
>Hottest and horniest Miku design in existence>Got Thanos'd in existenceFine... i do it myself....
https://voca.ro/1bcjWDD4HOvKwhat do you think of my miku vampire vocal fx?(posting cause I think we should share more wip here)I think itd be cool if somehow we started a /jp/ vocaloid song thing, like 2ch did long ago, they uploaded lyrics/midi and other producers made songs out of them including samfree at the timehttps://web.archive.org/web/20071124063257/http://dempa2.nullpo.2log.net/I don't know how they set it up / did it desu but heres samfree's song lolhttps://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm3108127
>>51135689You're trying to evoke an image that is probably quite clear in your head, but extremely indistinct in anybody else's. When I saw Miku Vampire, I thought something to do with the song Vampire, not Castlevania ambience as Miku kakas and says vampire. Like why is she just saying the word vampire instead of a threat to drink my blood or something. The actual sounds itself make me wonder if I'm in a dungeon or approaching the castle. You're giving very little to work with and it feels like something that needs visuals or at least a setting description. Also what's with the upbright piano at the end. Did morning come or something?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J0rxCobJs0A>MinecraftI wonder how far we are from songs produced in Roblox.

>>51134085why she crying?
>>51136014it's 2026 after all
cute song covered by a whohttps://youtu.be/52JuEaopxBs
>>51135802lmao you make good points actually, saying vampire randomly is stupid lolI had no direction other then wanting to try and make vocal FX at first using wavetable/granular synths, then I tried to turn it around into something of a song, don't really know what to to do with it desu (The breaths are miku's too)But I like your critique, what would you say about this?https://voca.ro/14j0NK5kv0vQthe image/lyrics I envisionedmiku new to class 3, at park/recess alone, wind blows her hair as she watches other play, tells herself shes fine as walks home alone and wonders if she can make friends.I was gunna add more instrumentation but is the simpleness good already?
>>51136131Wholoid
It's tiem
>>51136433
>>51136439Cute bow for the box lol
>>51136447Ah, so adorable! She looks absolutely stunning.I will need to move things around to find place for her, but I will surely display her in on of the top rows.
I built my Miku PC. Its running pretty well >>51136480>>51136433>>51136447Nice! I really like her face, they did a great job.
>>51135851I normally hate Western Teto songs (Virtues made some excellent ones though) but this one is awesome. It's very meta (as are most songs in the 2020s) but it's not taking itself seriously while sounding good. I'm happy to see voicebanks other than Teto and Miku used, even if it's mainly adlibs (and possibly harmonies), the tuning on Meiko in particular made me really happy and a Haku mention in 2026 is very nice.Hope one day we see Zatsune or Kiku Juon again though.
>>51136266The instrumentals feel well put together and have something like an upbeat getting through your day feeling, but Miku feels downcast and conflicts with it being a bit disharmonious.And that was my feeling before actually reading the image/lyrics part so good job. I will agree that it feels a bit simple. Rather than the music itself, it's the concept which I feel is pretty common already. A lot of indie music, not just Vocaloid is already about the everyday struggle, so a lot of it blurs together. It's a mellow getting through your day whereas some songs can make it feel far more like a massive struggle. Ostensibly some of the most famous songs in Vocaloid are of this type, but the sheer despair approaches suicidal ideation.If I would give any advice on direction, it's that your song might want a second half/part 2 that goes heavy in either direction, either falling deeper or actually finding friends. Causing the instrumentals and vocals to fall into harmony. Maybe something like a sharp intrusion with somebody else making her their friend and pulling her to their pace. Maybe Mikuteto slop, but it could be any other Vocaloid as well or even multiple.

>>51136505Really wish the ARIA girls got but a fraction of that quality merch.
>>51137527I like the first one
>>51136505>Miku Tax
>>51136505Huh is that actually functional?
>>51137594One day we will rise from the ashes
>>51138069Yeah. Its just a regular 5080 build in a small form factor pc case.Even has good airflow for having the GPU on the side.
>>51138087We can only hope. That Miku MP3 player thing that was posted here a few threads ago was really a show-off of the cool merch Miku gets that the ARIA girls can only dream about. Still hurts.
https://x.com/neru_sleep/status/2081318614611951891New Neru song on the 31st featuring Len, Una, and Teto
>>51139149this is exciting but what do those three characters have to do with each other?
>>51139826They are friends
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fio-m_mbn8oThis guy's videos are always cute.
>>51140757It's cute when they interact with Astonomy stuff.
Mikufication must continue.Fuck 1st PLACE and their greed for ruining IA's reputation.
>>51141522These are all the remastered versions I'm guessing
>>51141549Jin doesn't even own the rights to original recordings, he's making these new versions from scratch: https://x.com/jin_jin_suruyo/status/1684165721780273152
>>51137527The producer on the second one down still has AI slop art on their channel, and certain songs at least sound like the vocals were processed with RVC, I don't have a good enough ear for the instrumentals since covers are more of what I'm familiar with.
>>51135365you do realize mesmerizer became the most viewed vocaloid song on youtube above young girl A last month, right?
Cakegirl reached 1m kek
>>51142398It's a bad song but I think we need more sexual songs from overseas and the guy making his second song to troll the same crowd for harassing him is objectively funny.
I’m trying to tune for better English pronunciation, it’s tricky. Lyrics are about a broken OShttps://voca.ro/13GAK9S6ATiV
>>51142416The tuning is pretty good, but the mixing is horrible, sorry. I've come to find that most of the default V5 or V6 presets don't sound that great, at least to me,
>>51142437Thx anon, is this any better? I’ve gone ear blind at the moment from working on it for awhilehttps://voca.ro/12AI3w5kVicv
>>51142478Don't feel bad about going earblind, it happens to me after about 2 hours of straight work, sometimes sooner. But I think the issue with the mixing might be me not liking the effect that makes it sound very... tinny? Otherwise it is definitely way more clear, and if that's what you're going for with the effect, I won't stop you or shit on you for it. I do like the instrumental a lot.
Are Suno songs welcome here, or is this thread exclusively for vocaloids?
>>51142499It's exclusively for Vocaloid.
>>51142499lurk more
>>51142499What's Suno?
>>51142573AI music generator. Not only does it have nothing to do with vocal synths, it also has nothing to do with /jp/
>>51137440Hey thanks a lot I appreciate the feedback, I didnt expect to get the best feedback from here lol when I use to show wips on discord it was just generic shit like "cool." "Thumbsupemoji"
>>51142499>Are Suno songs welcome hereno
Can someone help me to search an old photo? It was a desktop with a monitor, a piano and a bunch of Miku figures all around. It was a photo i've seen since the early 10s and want to have it again for reference
>>51143549by any chance, this?
>>51143585This photo of my room is from 2023If that anon is talking about early 2010s, maybe he means that photo of a battlestation with a life scale doll(not the Akihiko Kondo's one) dressed as Miku sitting next to a computer desk? I think it had a piano and figures too but I can't find it.
>>51143549>desktop with a monitor>a bunch of Miku figures all around>a pianoEverything about this task seems futile if you're not somebody who has seen the image and actually has it on hand, but I found this searching Miku battlestation, no piano. Battlestation threads were always more a /v/ thing and any /v/ archive pretty much stops archiving older images due to space constraints.
>>51143756appreciate the miku flele in the background
https://x.com/namitape/status/2081278693100687551?s=20Seems Namitape is still making music but not his main focus anymore. Sounds like a ridge racer ost with its smooth baseline.
robot
>>51144411who
>>51144546Even newfags know Adachi Rei... I don't like her, but I admire her creator's drive to make an actual irl robot of his UTAU.
>>51144604Newfags only know MikuTeto
>>51144610I've seen several newfags also know Adachi Rei and Yi Xi because of Butcher Vanity and Heat Abnormal. The Reifags normally end up becoming UTAU autists if they choose to branch out.
Yet another excellent ENG utau contribution from Happy Birthday Mr. Baskets. This might be the producer to demolish the current god awful Monochro/Kat paradigm.https://youtu.be/rUkZ7ewcBk4
>>51144611Zoomies don't make the same association with Miku Teto for those two wholoids lol
>>51144614>birdbrain slopActually worse than Kat by default>>51144656I'm literally a zoomie and I've been listening to Vocaloid since 2013, I've owned the software since 2016. You're conflating Gen Z with Gen Alpha and Tiktok.
>>51144657>Actually worse than KatNot possible. Kat is genuinely deranged beyond whatever crap they shit out. I’ve had the displeasure of meeting them IRL and they definitely have the “I’m sure you’ve heard of me” energy.
>>51144657Gen Z and Gen Alpha and Shittok might as well be the same around these parts
>>51144610Newfags know Rei, tourists don't
>>51144682>I’ve had the displeasure of meeting them IRL and they definitely have the “I’m sure you’ve heard of me” energy.Oh like the grand majority of the Western Vocaloid community? I wouldn't doubt it at all actually, I've heard Jamie is nice, despite my dislike of Birdbrain as a song. But so, SO many of them are just horrible people. I wasn't fully surprised by the Ghost situation if only because I've had my own experiences. And I have some very deep regrets regarding that, which I doubt they share the sentiment.
>>51144692Most if not all newfags are tourists though, they don't stay for long nor do they care about the culture. There's no longer an unironic newfag, because they're just tourists.
>>51144715Now you guys know how we in the MMD sphere feel. No more silent film-like comedic videos, no more re-animations, no more original stories, and especially no more MMD Cup! Everything is friggin' pornography now, and when it isn't it still has to have a bajilion shaders and post processing applied with professionally done VFX and well interpolated motions. Hell, most of those productions end up being done in Blender anyway :/The age of silly vids made with Animasa models, stock lighting and only linear interp for motions hitting it big are long past us.
>>51144715>>51144774I should probably add that what I mean here is that the rather low bar invited a lot of would-be passive fans to actually create 3DCG works and contribute to the overall culture. Nowadays there's way fewer makers, most of whom do things at a very pro level, and everyone else is a passive consumer.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0ePMoRwhVo
>>51144774>Everything is friggin' pornography nowVocaloid wasn't always filled with porn?
>>51144710Had a friend who went to DigitalStars and told me Jamie was very nice and sincere, Monochro had the fake customer relations “nice,” and Kat was a raging cunt (wouldn’t get off their phone when my friend tried to talk to them and basically shoo’d them away).Also, didn’t Kat blow up at some Twitter rando over the Vocagathering thing?
>>51144715Twitter incentivizes tourism. It's the same thing happening in anime. Someone can be a turbo-tourist who clearly doesn't know what the fuck he is talking about, say something really stupid as if he is an authority and even call people who disagree with him tourists. He might get called a retard if he is too egregious, but his post will be boosted by the algorithm and there are enough people like him to make him feel like he belongs.
