Hello! I'm a Vocal Synth Dev that primarily focuses on UTAU related projects. 2 UTAU characters of mine are アノネ (Anone) and エットネ (Ettone). Thir voices come from the same set of recordings and can be activated by applying the g12 or g-7 flag respectively. Their main bank, named TAKE ONE, is my interpretation of the Rentan CV VB style. It uses Hiragana CV USTs but produces results similar to a VCV bank thanks to the recording style and specific oto configurations. Here's the voicebank in action!

アノネ, イーネ, & エットネ's TAKE ONE VB has been updated!
The bank has been separated into the 3, 1 per character, for convenience. The g12 and g-7 flags are still needed to activate Anone/アノネ and Ettone/エットネ respectively. Otherwise, iine/イーネ will sing for all 3 banks.

The updated oto for CV aliases makes them much easier to use in Hiragana CV USTs. Beginning Notes [- あ] ＆ VCV vowels [a あ] still need to be activated manually or with the AutoVCV button.

アノネ, イーネ, & エットネ's True Traditional CV VB has been updated! It's a 1-mora CV bank, recorded at C4 (default) and A3 (Soft), in which its oto uses silence before the sample to simulate VCV transitions. The main purpose is to make the most out of such a limited VB type. I initially released it with just a C4 pitch in June 2019 and have been improving it ever since.

This update adds an E.V.E.C. inspired feature called Extra Color/EC!

It's February 5th in Japan now so happy birthday Defoko! I updated the oto edit that I released 2 years ago. I learned a lot about otoing since then and she sounds much smoother now.

Yesterday was my 6th anniversary of using UTAU! To celebrate, I made a short cover using one of my favorite UTAU voicebanks, 水音ラル/Mine Laru. https://soundcloud.com/shigane/sotsugyou-desu-ne-short-ver-mine-laru-query #UTAU

You may have noticed that there's a 3rd voice in both the demo and user manual videos. That voice's name is イーネ! They're the bank's default voice, or the voice that sings when no g flag is applied.

This bank was originally released on March 27th, 2019 and I've been adding features to it ever since. Along with Hiragana CV aliases, there's full support for the Japanese language with ん variants (such as [んng] [んm]) and VCs ([a k] [a s] ) & standalone consonants [(- k] [k]) for certain phonemes.
Also, I've created new features such as Middle Notes [か2] and Helper Notes [か3] to make transitions between notes smoother. A user manual is included with the VB. Here's a condensed version!

TT CV (short for True Traditional CV) is an otoing method I created in order to get the best results out of Traditional CV VBs. I'll post a full guide eventually but in the most simple terms, the oto uses silence before the mora in order to simulate VCV transitions. Traditional CV banks will always have traits that separate it from VCV banks, but the goal is to make the most out of the limited resources of 1-mora CV banks. I released a VB showcasing this method. https://soundcloud.com/shigane/anone-ettone-tt-cv-vb-release
