whenever im looking for USTs for song covers i wanna do quick i've come to find three types
has all the words in the right places, untuned blank slate that (imo) did all the hard stuff for you and now you get to have fun tuning it yourself
an intricately tuned file that's pretty much plug-and-play (unless i feel like modifying it to be in english)
the most inexplicable and user-unfriendly setup ever that modifying it to be singable for your voicebank and language is a challenge to do on its own
#mayor talk#idk if i am making sense but this is what ive observed#im doing a cover of propaganda! by crusher and downloaded the first ust i found#it has all the right tracks but the way the lyrics are written is so bizarre that my english banks cant sing them#[best i can explain it is that they wrote the phonemes out but without the brackets to signal it's a phonetic hint#so now the voice bank pronounces it as literally as possible if at all so it literally sounds jumbled.... grrr]#i meeean... i prefer an excuse to do extra work over a pretuned ust ngl#i have a backwards mindset where i feel like i cant claim any art ive made if i didnt suffer enough for it#i wanted to cover tengaku and downloaded the first ust i could find and it was REALLY well tuned#and i didnt wanna change it but at the same time i felt bad when i was done cuz it feels like that doesnt count#my 'aliens i love you' and 'luka luka night fever' covers were cool since those usts just had the lyrics in the right order with no bullshi#with either no or minimal tuning that left room for me to do my thing ya know#i mean i could always reset the pitchbends and expressions of a pre-tuned ust but i'd feel like im comparing myself to the original constan#ly. and i would be throwing out a bunch of work just to start from scratch
