Voice Training

I've been doing voice training every day for about two months now.

I got into Hitokara a few years ago, but then I got tired of it and stopped playing it.

 

To begin with, I didn't really like my own voice.

But late last year, I came across a video that shocked me.

 

 

what is this……

 

How can a human voice change so much depending on training?

Apparently, people who are male but produce a female voice (or female but male) are called ``amphophonic'' people.

 

My brain went crazy while watching it.

This is probably how people in the past felt when they learned that the world was actually a sphere, not a flat surface.

 

Of course, it's not hard to imagine that the voices they sing in this video are the ones they acquired through hard work and natural talent.

 

 

Hal, who was especially amazing, seems to have been singing as a female voice for 15 years.

This is exactly what Ichinen Rock is all about.

 

While he was composing songs for Vocaloid, CeVIO, and SynthV, somewhere in his heart he wanted to sing with them.

Maybe that dream will come true.

 

With her hopes in mind, I have been practicing for years to achieve my goal of having a beautiful voice like Hal's, and when I listen to the recordings of my own voice, which I have made through trial and error every day, I am overwhelmed by reality.

 

But the results of my practice are starting to show little by little.

If you are interested in diphonics after reading this article, I highly recommend the following books.

If you don't like your voice, try making it into a voice that you like.

Test Movie

I suddenly opened the Sound House page and before I knew it, a 500,000 yen Neumann microphone was in my basket, and my brain went crazy.

 

She is currently doing voice training every day with the aim of becoming a creative beautiful girl who can sing, and is thinking of buying a microphone for home recording someday, but it is far out of her budget to use it as a hobby.

 

It's only been about 5 days since she moved to Aozora, but she feels like she's escaping the hustle and bustle of the city and resting in nature.

There's no spam or impression zombies that pop up even if you're in X, and there are no people getting angry about something every day.

 

However, Aozora is still a developing SNS, so it may be inferior in terms of functionality compared to the long-established X.

One of them is video posting.

 

I think one of the strengths of X was that you could easily post making-of videos.

It can be done in Mastodon, and I wish it would be implemented in Aozora soon... (wish)

 

I could create a dedicated channel on Niconico, but I'm taking the opportunity to do a little test to see if I can post it here.

 

It's a cheap rental server, so if the number of views increases too much, it will be overloaded and access will be restricted, but considering the current number of accesses to the HP, it's probably not a problem lol

 

To play videos, you need a browser that supports the video tag.

Good-bye X

Recently, accounts that look like female CEOs, Rimowa girls, money givers, and other CEOs have been all the rage on the old Twitter, X.

 

Around last summer, X (as I purposely call it) introduced an advertising revenue sharing system for premium users, allowing even fairly well-known creators and distributors to earn money.

I think this system itself was good, but it also created some unexpected side effects.

 

They are so-called impression zombies.

 

These are the guys who earn impressions (= money) by pasting meaningless tweets in the reply section of viral tweets.

Well, I think she's still cute enough to earn advertising revenue by being a nuisance.

 

 

These people who were listed in my follow and like sections are criminals who lead users to malicious phishing sites, steal users' personal information, and inject viruses into their devices.

 

Well, if it's just a problem for me personally, I can just ignore it and leave it alone, but the troublesome thing about this kind of spam is that it can infect other people by following the follower section.

They're just like a virus.

 

I wanted to avoid bothering other followers or endangering them due to my negligence, so I used Spablo every time, but the past few days have been especially bad and I've been feeling like I'm going crazy.

 

So, while I was blocking it, I suddenly thought about it.

 

Why are you doing this?

Is SNS something you have to put up with and continue using? and.

 

You do it because it's fun and you want to stay there forever, not in a place covered in shit and cleaning up shit.

 

Fortunately, there is a mass migration of ethnic groups to the new SNS "Bluesky" which is currently a hot topic.

If there are people you want to connect with, why not just move together?

 

That's why I also created an account.

fujimipolis.bsky.social

 

For other SNS accounts It is listed on this page.

 

Well, recently X has only been RTing jokes and promoting his works, so I don't really have any regrets about his current account.

 

I've eliminated the viruses that have been swarming with me recently, but when I look at the follower section, I see that there are still a lot of them, and I don't have time to destroy them one by one.

 

So I will delete my entire account.

 

X Day (just for X) is at the end of this month.

I think there are some people who have had a low rise recently, so instead of turning it off all at once, I'll give it a two-week period.

Leave the key to countermeasures against spam attacks.

 

It is also my intention to protest against the management of X.

I'm not even an influencer, so it won't have any effect if even a single stain disappears, but if the migration to the blue sky accelerates, some kind of countermeasure may be taken.

 

I saw people trying to reach new heights every time a new SNS was created, and at first I didn't try it because I thought it would be a hassle, but if you create accounts in various places, you can put up with it and don't have to put yourself in a shitty environment. I don't have any, and I think it's a good way to maintain connections with people, and it can also be a hedge against risks.

 

You may think it's difficult to go back and forth between so many SNS, but there's no need to track or post on every SNS every day, and I think you should just do it loosely and use different ones depending on your mood.

 

The blue skies we have now are fun, but I don't think they will last forever.

If the influx of users continues and the scale grows, there is a possibility that public safety will worsen, or that the environment may deteriorate due to a change in management policy.

After all, personal sites are the best.

 

If you are a follower with a personal website, please let me know and I will be happy to paste the link.

I will appreciate mutual links.

 

I've been neglecting it lately, but I think I'll keep up with my original plan for in-depth stories and status updates here.

Well, it's not like I want to say goodbye for now, so please continue to support Enin.
