Song #2 Progress




Song #3 Progress

[Wiguan]

Here's my progress for tonight.

I make the chorus part of the song first.
I think I found a good melody, but there's no sure thing yet.

Here how it sound (with only basic drum beats + bass guitar).

Listen on Soundcloud.com


What do you think?

Do the vocal sound clear to you?

But I do not satisfy on certain part... like the "will" ever change... Sonika sound like... "wiielll"

When the 2nd verse of the chorus, the lyric is "All the days that you are not here".
Can anyone point out how can I make the words there more clearer?
I try to adjust the parameter but it doesn't give satisfactory result.

And also the parts "waiting for you to come back" her British accent is so strong there. >_<

Sounds good, but some of the vocal note's pitch sound a bit... Off, compared with the rest of the song.

Oh, sorry that nobody noticed your thread. Well, I wish you all the luck and I'll be watching this thread. I'm very sorry I can't listen to it because I have school in uh... around 15 minutes. When I get home I'll tell you what I think. I'll try to help if I can.

This, along with the volume flux. I can always compress her vocals for you if you need me too...

Listen to more deco/40m.

You mean compared to the "chord progression" played by the bass?

Ah, thank you.

Actually I already compress it to -5dB.
Yea, I still can hear the "ssssxxx.... ssssxxxx" on some words...
I'll try to fix it later.
Thanks for the point out.

Care to explain what is that?
A Google search returns result about diving?

[SuperTart]

Deco*27 was (is?) a Vocaloid producer who used Gumi, but now has a professional band. 40m is also another famous producer. I'm assuming they said that because they're both well known producers with nice quality work.

Yes, sorry, I'm not very good with musical terms unless it involves guitars... Anyway, might wanna fix that ^^

[Tempo-P]

Keep it up! Don't give up.

I suggest you aim a bit higher for your goals though.

[Micah]

I can't listen to it write now, because I have to get off the computer, but I wish you good luck!
Once Oliver boxed comes out, I'm going to buy him and he will be my first vocaloid too!
I'll read your thread more soon!

Good luck and work hard!!

TBH honest, I don't even know what's the "key chord" yet.
That's just something I record by ears.
Sounded like I miss 1 chord but I don't want to forget the vibe, so I record it.

It's first time for me.
I want to make the goals something that I can really achieve first.

Anyway, thanks for the wish.

This song in this thread?
http://vocaloidotaku...-know-her-more/

Have not re-write the lyric fully, only the chorus part.

Quote

Coz my love for you is true,
Never ever changing,
I will treasure you alone,
No one else inside my heart.

Even the days you're not here,
I will always waiting,
Looking at the empty street,
Till the day that we will meet again.

I change it into;

Quote

Coz my love for you is true,
I promise nothing will ever change.
I will treasure you alone,
Baby, I love you.

All the days that you are not here,
I'm waiting all alone in my room,
Waiting for you to come back.
Baby, I miss you.

But somehow I have the feeling I'm gonna re-write it again...
Well, it's hard to put myself in a girl's perspective.
