UTAU OTO TUTORIAL(text version only)

originally posted on tumbler but here for you da peoples:

THIS IS AN OTO TUTORIAL BECAUSE I'M TIRED OF RE-OTOING EVERYONES UTAU.

I am going to actually explain what causes the oto to do what. but even if you don't understand, do it anyway as its fairly simple.

the blue parts obviously cut the sounds completely form being used, cut of blank space and a bit of the end of the note with this. sometimes its okay to cut of the beggining of ch, s, sh, m, n, f, h, g, j, l, r, v,  and z sounds, only if they are drug out. be careful with the sh though or it will sound like ch.

the pink part is what is drug out. make sure this goes a bit into the vowel or the constanant will get drug out and you'll get something like shhhhhh instead of shiiiiii.

The green line is where the overlap begins, always goes behind or at the red line.

the red line is where it starts on time with the note in utau.

everything between green and red is pushed into the previous note, put the constanant in between them for clear constanants that arent laggy. the same rules for the cut offs for the listed notes about apply to this so you don't have to put the entire "s" in between just a bit.

Thats pretty much all there is to it?


so to sum it up. blue cuts of blank space and end, constanant goes between green and red (in that order, never red and green) and pink should go over the beggining of the vowel
