[UTAU cover] Hikari yo - Stella V1.5 (+VB update):

Happy Halloween everyone!! 🎃✨
Fun Fact: This cover is dedicated to Zimtroeschen, aka Zim-P, who was the first person (other than me lol) to use Stella! They sent me a sample test of her singing the first verse of Hikari yo, along with some advice, and it still makes me happy thinking about it. 💛
I just hope Stella sounds a bit better / has been improved since then, haha
Sorry if it seems a little rushed, I wanted to post this in time for halloween. ^^;
I’ll do it more justice whenever I decide to re-cover it with her future vcv bank. ^^
Speaking of voicebank stuff, I tweaked her oto (again) and even added some blending vowels, like Defoko has, to help with notebending and smoothing out vowel transitions. I made good use of them in this cover. ^-^
You can download the updated bank here!: drive.google.c...
(Also, I don’t know why but she keeps dropping her “S”’s when combined with the music. I don’t know if they’re just not rendering properly when exported, or maybe the background miku vocals are drowning them out, but yeah, a lil annoying when I was trying to mix. I strengthened them the best I can but DaVinci still doesn’t like them so whatever ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
