Germaine -桜の森の満開の下-

March 21th, 2021 - cover Image by Zakne.

Without people, a forest of cherries in full bloom is not pretty, just something to be afraid of.

For more information about the name of the voicebank, I recommed this article. https://www.ganriki.org/article/aoi-bungaku-sakura-no-mori/

My personal choice for resamplers are world4utau, TIPS or doppeltler.

This is an  experimental monopitch CVVC based on VOCALOID Maika and Aura's Split method (uses CC+CV for CCV).

Ready for Western Catalan, Spanish, French, English and Japanese.
I did not include ø for French, many English vowels nor schwa.

Vowels	a, e, E, i, o, O, u, U, an, in, on, 3, 9
Consonants	b, k, d, ch, f, g, h, j, k, l, m, n, nn, p, r, rr, R, r', s, sh, t, w, ks, y, z, Z
Diphtongs	Only Spanish (e.g. bwa, bya)

Note that:

Spanish Ñ	[nn]	Same sound as Catalan ny,  French ng, Portuguese nh, Italian gn.
Open vowel	[E] [O] [3]	Intended for Catalan, but also added [3] as in bird for English.
Nasal vowels	[an] [in] [on]	For French,  remember not to confuse VC like [an b] with non nasal [a n].
French R, œ, u	[R] [9] [U]	Remember that [a R] would be a VC, use [a-] for ending vowel.
English R	[a r'] [ra']	CC do not have apostrophe (e.g. br, kr).
Spanish R	[r] [rr]	CC have 4 instead of r (e.g. b4, k4).
Japanese	[u ts] [tsu] [Z] [tz]	There is not n as vowel, use n- or VC. There are not any others CVVC with ts, only tsu is avaiable, but there is a CC if needed. Catalan CC tz works as Japanese CC dz.
Catalan CC digraphs	[lls] [tj] [tx] [tz]	There is not ll for singular, but I have recorded lls for plurals.
