Okay, HARMON-E's oto is done!
Linky~

Got some notes on it, however (oh crap D:) :

'pie'/'pye' is completely empty. There's no sound, so I couldn't oto it.
Zi, tsi, tse, swe, she, se, pye, he and the breathing files are at a low enough frequency that every one of my resamples crash when I try to FRQ them (I'll never be able to make a soft append sob), so you'll need to do that yourself.
'we'/'ue' sounds like 'bu-eh'
Annnddd tsi, ti, to (desperately needs redone), te, tsa, tse, sho, u, tu, tsu, tso, wi/ui, vo, va, vi, ve, vu, wo, wa, yu, ya, yo, zu, za and zi are really, really buzzy. It sounds just like the buzz you get when someone plugs in a stereo speaker cable halfway.
Other than that, HARMON-E actually sound really pretty. I'm surprised, I usually really hate shota UTAU voices with a burning passion :o

@Heatless: Okay~! Added to the queue~

Yet another double post :U Sorry.

Matsukai~ IVY's oto is done, but I also have some notes for it too :U
I couldn't tell if I was otoing a voice or the bubbling fish tank in the background at times. Your voicer got really quiet, to the point I couldn't see some of the samples with the spectrogram turned up, and then sometimes he'd get really loud .____.
(consonate = sounds like)
Pe = Bay
Pa = Ba
Ju = Yu
Ki = Gi
Ne = Nay
Yu = Ju (the file names for yu and ju might have gotten mixed up)
Yo = Jo
Ya = Ja
Pi = Bi
Just something to keep in mind when it comes to future acts :U Though I was really surprised that the R's were proper.

K, starting on Kikomi's now.
EDIT: Done. I doubt you'll notice a difference though, a lot of the consonates were cut off during recording and finished dying during pitching. Most noticeably with the G's .____.

Double Edit: Okay, I'll get these last two done when I wake up. Nocturnal sleep schedule and all~

@Kikiomi: You're welcome~! And thank you!~<3

@Matsuki: You're welcome~ Might I suggest recording loudly under a blanket (but not loud enough to clip), and then turning the samples down in Audacity? That's what I did, and now I have little to no static and background noise.

@SnowSongstress: Okay, I'll do them~! Just post the links, I'll get to them when I've woken up and finished the other two~

thanks so much ^^ I used to think you could just cut the sound to the beginning, so they might be a little weird ^^ Plus some have slight oto on them because my friend tried doing it =w=" Thanks again, and i might have another to be OTOed later~

Because of actually being busy for once (wth that never happens) and having to do a crapton of dishes, I wasn't able to finish any otos today/tonight. I promise I'll get them done after I wake up (and after wrestling) when I wake up, though~

EDIT: Okay, bad news on Mayo.
I tried (oh god, did I try) to re-oto her (her oto is pretty bad ^^;), but her samples are horrible. They're too long, they bounce from quiet to loud, and the sound makes my ears bleed and my teeth hurt. Her 'di' is even a 'gi', I have no idea how that even happened .____. Re-record her, and I'll do the oto.
Ah yeah... I figured it was the samples. That's why I wanted a second opinion. "Di" sounding like "ji" was because the samples were based on hiragana readings rather than a reclist.

I'm planning an Act 2 based on Oremo's reclist this time...so do you have any recording tips? I had no idea my voice was ear-grating. Do you think it's background noise or something?

Other than the typical "Say your samples in under half a second", you should also:
* Enunciate your consonants, but don't be silly about it.
* Press Spacebar to preview your sample. If it doesn't sound the way it should, rerecord it. (Press R, record)
* Leave a little bit of space before you say your sample just so that it won't end up with the vowel cut off (just .1 of a second. not much.)
* Try to do it in a quiet place.
* Use your normal voice, no voice acting.
