vocaloid

| > is it trash? is it good? discuss!

I personally think people mostly hate on the genre for no reason


| No hate but not on the upper part of the list for me. I appreciate real singers more than some project messing with pre-expended sound.


| Pre-recorded *


| I think vocaloid lost its jam bc of people listening for the story/meaning behind the song, not the vocaloid itself.
Besides, most of the producers only use Miku, Luka or the Kagamine bros, even if the variety of vocaloids is huge.
My favorite ones is, and it will always be, are VY2, Oliver, Gumi, Cul, Kaito and Gakupo.
And I'm really looking foward to the new chineses vocaloids, while the american/european still failing miserably to make a good-sounding vocaloid...


| So dumb question time, is vocaloid a software, a hardware, an online service or what?
I know vocaloid makes songs without a real person singing and I know how a vocaloid song sounds bu what is vocaloid exactly?

Vocaloid, in its simplest explanation, is split into two: Editor and Voice Banks.

Voice bank is what provides the voice (say, for example, Hatsune Miku), and the Editor is what makes the voice articulate words.

I have limited experience with this though, so I may have answered a few areas wrongly.


| I like the concept of virtual idols tho, can't wait to see this slowly crawling into mainstream

I think if this becomes mainstream, it will only get a worse badge than already has today.
You saw what happened to k-pop, so why vocaloid wouldn't be the same?


| I would like to produce some musics with it, but I don't know japanese, so I would only be able to write the lyrics in english and portuguese. Besides, it doesn't sound good when making a music with a japanese vocaloid using their english voicebank, or using an actual american/british vocaloid...


| >>112045 every weird thing suffers by becoming mainstream, then it gets slowly accepted and one day nobody's calling it weird anymore


| >>112051 there are english vocaloids out there though

>it doesn't sound good[...] using an actual american/british vocaloid...

GUMI English kinda sounds good to me, here : https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cQKGUgOfD8U

And there's Oliver, an english vocaloid and his voice provider is from Britain iirc
