/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Okay /vt/. Now that our King cover has been made, it's time crown the actual King.

Who sang King the best and why is it /vt/? Why is /vt/ King and full of soul?

Ok at the time of making this thread, Ussewa is winning in the poll, and I don't think I have enough time to work on Ahoy anyway, so I'd really rather not do that one right now.

Here's how it works:
>Record yourself singing along to either one or both of these
https://files.catbox.com/om3tcw.webm
https://youtu.be/Qp3b-RXtz4w
>Use audacity, windows recorder, your phone, etc. (most modern smartphones are pretty good)
>Upload to catbox/litterbox

>Just record your raw voice, without any effects or splicing
>You can record single full takes, or multiple takes of different sections

Here are the instrumentals that I will be using in the final version:

I'll answer any questions you have, and I'm open to any suggestions or advice.

And again, for those who wanted Ahoy, we can do that next time. I'm really swamped with work right now and I'm just doing this in my free time. I'm mostly using this to get some basic experience mixing vocals, since I usually work with instruments

Tentative deadline is the end of Sunday, May 30th, so you have about 2 weeks. I can adjust if people need more time.

Have fun

Ok here's the first rough mix, after 8 hours. The whole thing is mixed, but I'm just uploading the first verse until I polish it up more. Sounds kinda finished but needs some tweaking. I'm not sure why the original prod anon was taking so long.

>Record using this instrumental https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=abbHrsdxryE as reference for key and tempo.
>Record using Audacity, Windows Voice Recorder, or some other standalone app, export the audio file, then upload to catbox.moe or your choice of other filehost. Do not use Vocaroo, either for recording or upload, audio quality is shite.

>Recording sent for inclusion should ONLY be your raw voice audio. Please do not apply filters and reverb and compression and shit, I'll handle the mixing and mastering, and for SURE don't send it with the music in the background because I'll just toss your shit out.

>Record a single long take or submit different sections in multiple different files. Or just submit a part here, a part there. I'm not picky. Do it however works for you.
>You can do a voice or be silly with it, as is traditional for 'x sings' efforts, but if you're obnoxiously making random annoying noises/your attempts at being funny and unique are stupid and can't be mixed in cleanly, I'm tossing your submission. As always, talking shit during downtime in the song is welcome and mildly encouraged

>If you sing/intend your submission to be harmonization, please indicate as much. If you don't know what harmonization is and/or can't do it unprompted, just stick with the base key/pitch.

>Provide submissions ITT with link
>Questions, suggestions you wanna throw at me offline, or any other stuff, send an email to vtsings@protonmail.com . Put something mentioning KING in the subject line.

>If you send something via email, if it ISN'T an attached audio file, or a link to a webhosted upload of the audio file, I'll assume you're trying to infect my computer. TL;DR don't zip, rar, or otherwise compress your shit. Or I'm tossing it. Deadass.

Deadline is Sunday, Feb 28th. Release date is sometime in the future after that, depends how many entries I get which in turn dictates how long mixing will take. Probably no later than end of March.

I will be releasing two variants, SOUL and soulless. Soulless is the lame "wow it's actually on-pitch and sounds good baka" version and will require less time to make, SOUL will incorporate everyone, no matter how much it hurts.

Good luck and have fun.
