So, i've gotten a bit sad that i can't make any more new UTAUs with my voice because they all sound to similar, but i have a better plan! An UTAU where every sample is a different person! That's right, for FREE, you can be part of this project!

About the UTAU:
   This will be an agender UTAU, meaning they have no gender, so the samples will have to sound androgynous. The Utau will also be recorded at the pitch of C4, with a normal voice (meaning no whisper, shout, sick, etc. but stuff like sweet, mature, dark, etc are fine). I will be holding a contest for their design and a contest for their name! But the UTAU will have to be finished first!

How to submit:
   step 0: Making a journal about this would be great, and very much preferred, but you don't have to!
   Step 1: Choose a sample off this list:  UTAU CV Japanese ReclistI don't have an UTAUloid of my own, but I know that there are many people out there who want to make their own, and Japanese is one of the easiest to use in, not to mention the original language of, the UTAU software. This list of recordings are for consonant-vowel voicebanks of the Japanese language.
Main reclist:
あ、い、う、え、お
a, i, u, e, o
か、き、く、け、こ
ka, ki, ku, ke, ko
きゃ、きぃ、きゅ、きぇ、きょ
kya, kyi, kyu, kye, kyo
が、ぎ、ぐ、げ、ご
ga, gi, gu, ge, go
ぎゃ、ぎぃ、ぎゅ、ぎぇ、ぎょ
gya, gyi, gyu, gye, gyo
さ、し、す、せ、そ
sa, shi, su, se, so
ざ、じ
  (check below for list of samples that are taken)
   Step 2: Open up an audio recording program, and record your self singing the sound that you chose. You should be able to hear the consonant, and it should be a about 2 seconds long. Don't drag out the consonant either, say it however long you would normally say it. The volume shouldn't be too loud or too quiet, and again, record at an even pitch of C4.
   Step 3: upload file to www.filedropper.com/ and note me the link.
   step 4: that's it! You can start drawing up some designs or thinking up names for the UTAU, so your ready for the contests! :D

Thank you for maybe considering or even participating, and I encourage you to share this around so it can gain some attention! Thanks, and have an awesome day! (And ps, i know it's probably not going to sound the greatest, but it's the whole community aspect that is really cool, and who knows, maybe they will sound good! ;)
