Everyone~
It's been so long since I last posted something here!
(Sorry about that.)
Anyways, I have come to bear some news. One that is really saddening (for me, at least!) and then some basic junk.
::SADNESS::
My sound card died. And it isn't a recent model (computer) and is not the common computer type... it was given to us for free, so I had no say in how I wanted it... especially its age.
The computer works fairly well for its age, but it is probably going to die... soon.
I have many things on this computer, so that will really suck once I have to re-download many things. Hopefully, my computer will survive until I get the laptop, so that I may get the files onto a site like MediaFire if it is something that isn't available online. Such as all of my bookmarks and note-files and such!
For a High School Graduation gift, from Mommys, I am getting a laptop. I gave her some specific things I wanted, as she requested... well, I mostly want it to have a good video card and memory, so that is pretty much what I wrote.
However, it should be a Windows 7 thingy, so it will be fairly recent and such! Yay~
I will tell you what I will be able to do and not do, once I get it and have become accustomed to it. Ah, that will be an expensive gift, yes!
::RANDOM JUNK::
~ Totally re-designed ミチ. It is much more simpler and cute and not so stupid looking. Sure, I will have to make a new concept art sheet, avatar image and whatever, but I will be happy.
Why? Because people will probably like her new design.
...
I might re-design it, since I have plenty of time to do as such. (Remember: My sound card is dead, so recording is pretty much impossible... at least, a good one!)
Eventually, I will show everyone all of her designs, each marked with what is her current and what is her older attires (in chronological order)~
You will be surprised by how much you will see my change in fashion! (Hint: Lolita-like, Lolita and now not-much-lolita.)
If that makes sense, it means that my fashion has become simpler. I like the simpler outfits, which you see a lot in Asian Fashion ( or at least on http://www.yesstyle.com/ ). But that does not really matter. It is just an interesting thing to know.
~ Another thing is that I have yet to re-do her voice bank!
I had been determined to re-record it, but then found it foolish to do it on an out-dated computer that cannot read/use kana minus on Mozilla (an extension). So, I will be hoping that I will be able to use kana on my laptop, or at least be able to get something that will make it do as such!
(If not, then I will just have to deal with changing the kana .usts into romaji. Which is much more boring than it sounds. Kana-to-romaji is easy, but having to do it is too repetitive and boring.)
So, once I get my laptop (which Mommys said might be before Graduation!!), I will re-record her voice bank with all the possible things (in Japanese).
It will be much nicer than the one that I still have (since the first blog post), so please look forward to it! If people want to hear what her voice bank currently is, I will .zip the folder and upload it to MediaFire for you. That is, if someone asks me to do as such. (Requesting an alternate file sharing site is fine, as well!)
BUT I will not upload anything until I am satisfied by ミチ's voice bank. As well as her art-stuff. And I will also need to write the "can and cannot" stuff for her... as well as work up her bio (at least personality and such). I will need to research how other UTAUloids have their bios done, for inspiration.
And if I feel like it, as well as feel confident in her, then I might add it to this: http://utau.wikia.com/wiki/UTAUloids . If he-she-it/they accept it, then I will be happy. But I do not worry too much about this, as making ミチ into a proper/decent UTAUloid is more of a side-project for me. (I have online singing organization duties. Those have deadlines!)
:ENDE:
So far, what I need to do::
~ Get a new sound card and-or hope for laptop to be received [really] soon
~ Be 100% confident in ミチ's design
~ Create new Concept Art, Official Art and avatar
~ Create ミチ's Bio and such
~ Re-record voice bank
~ Be confident in voice bank, enough to advertise
~ Advertise with a demo or something of that sort
~ Give link to download voice bank
~ Try to add ミチ to http://utau.wikia.com/wiki/UTAUloids
