Hatsune Miku To Open For Lady Gaga's ARTPOP Ball Tour - Polidicks

Here's what it'll look like: [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pEaBqiLeCu0[/media] Cool but weird.

Most Vocaloid songs I've heard have terrible high pitched robo-voices but there are a few that actually managed to fool me thinking it was a real singer. Though I'm not really much a music fan so I don't go out of my way to find those good ones

Since Vocaloid music is a massive division, with the many different voices to choose and artists behind them, claiming it's all "kawaii uguu anime shit" is pretty ignorant. I personally can't stand the majority, but quite a few have some kickass instrumentals backing the voices, and a couple work with pitches that can and will easily fool you into believing that you're actually listening to a real person singing rather than the synthesizer. All in all, it's a good way for people with actual musical talent to produce music with singers without needing to be able to sing, or find/pay a singer to help them. At the same time, due to it's open-ended nature and relative lack of monetary cost, any old Joe can pick it up and use it.

vocaloids can be done right, but since its a new thing it tends to just be used as a gimmick they are useful for people who can write but can't sing and the synthetic sound can be great for making a certain kind of atmosphere

Who?

With the exception of a couple songs I really don't care for how Vocaloid sounds. Too high-pitched and robotic.

Moonbase Alpha TTS for best voice synth singing program.

In a way I really don't see this decision to be out of character for her. I mean, she [i]is[/i] the person who wore a dress made out of meat.

[QUOTE=Alice3173;44560195]Anything involving Deino as the illustrator or Utsu-P as the producer or anyone else within that genre too.[/QUOTE] Other examples of creators in the metal spectra (mostly metalcore for some reason) are [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OxIBd_bQRw]Muryoku-P[/url], [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HADhi6mpd4o]Yuyoyuppe[/url] and [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFoLYfk_CUo]Shiromeshi[/url] There's also [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Az0svbmn_Ns]Al-Kamar[/url], but that's a whole 'nother thing

[QUOTE=gokiyono;44559763]Why? It's pretty damn cool that a musician can be a one man band and still have several singers without having to sing himself.[/QUOTE] I really dont like the voices. Honestly it sounds like Alvin and the Chimpunks using auto-tune to me.

So the world of anime crap is merging with the world of pop crap, Another reason to stay indoors i guess.

Are you sure you're not just projecting your own hostility on the other party?

[QUOTE=Alice3173;44560195][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MSNseLn2uow[/media] That's very generic anime uguu kawaii music right there.[/QUOTE] Why can't this program make voices that don't sound like a robotic imitation of Alvin and the Chipmunks? I mean I like the song but God damn that voice makes my skin crawl.

[QUOTE=mugofdoom;44563924]Why can't this program make voices that don't sound like a robotic imitation of Alvin and the Chipmunks?

He could have made it lower pitch, like this. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_g4zbwWG_I[/media]

If you want to find one that doesn't "robotic imitation of Alvin and the Chipmunks" to you, then you could try and do that.

Only on Facepunch do you find people saying Miku sounds like a damn chipmunk.

Will this be the first time miku performs in america?
