Mesmerizer / メズマライザー - GENBU & GAO (SynthV & OpenUtau Cover)

I KIND OF started this as like an inside joke between me and myself because I was rambling on my blog a couple times about like, vocal synth headcanons and how I always imagine some synths know that they are pieces of software on a computer and others are living in blissful ignorance. Psychological horror situation LOL BUT like anyway I tend to imagine Genbu knows he's a synth because of all his hopping around different software as Takehiro and such but a lot of synths that have like specific and realistic human lore I imagine don't know which happens to be the case for a lot of UTAUloids I know (unless their whole bit is being a robot or something lol) and it kind of made me laugh imagining that to Takehiro, Gorou is like a brother to him because of their shared voice provider but to Gorou, Takehiro is some random guy who is decent but slightly too familiar and gives uncanny valley vibes. Glitch in the matrix type guy. One-sided brotherhood situation. so yeah was made basically as a fun little goof for myself but the unfortunate (or fortunate?) thing about me is I always take my own goofs incredibly seriously so I spent like two months working on this HJKDSHJLKDAjhkfds but I had a lot of fun, especially trying to make Genbu sound a little unhinged around the end, and making Gao sound a little. hashtag scared. I had to learn how to use OpenUTAU for this which you might be able to tell LOL I think I've figured it out now, I used to be an UTAU user but the past couple years I wasn't able to mess with my computer's locale to use it without breaking other software so I'm glad to use OU now!! It's really fun, I had missed these voicebanks so bad. I had missed moresampler so bad too. My best friend moresampler. I ALSO had to learn how to use davinci Resolve because for the past like ten years I have been using the same cracked copy of sony vegas WHICH used to be fine for my digital art but now that I do exclusively traditional art, especially watercolour, sony vegas's rending options were STRUGGLING to not fuck up the colours super bad orz this may be why this cover took so long BUT I'm pretty happy with it all. much learning to be done. getting into vocal synthesizers will force you to learn a new skillset every day :') Original: Mesmerizer (メズマライザー) by 32ki https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=19y8YTbvri8 UST: アトリ科ヒワ属のゲン https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDJreEHw0EI
