KASAI OG01 SALIENT – UTAU Release Date & More!

We are incredibly excited to announce that the KASAI OG01 SALIENT UTAU release will be public in early May 2021!

A unique Voicebank for the UTAU Vocal Synthesizer Engine, we hope using her will be a fun experience for all!

Voicebank Properties for KASAI OG01 SALIENT:

The UTAU release of KASAI OG01 SALIENT is an all-in-one Japanese VCV Voicebank that possesses both Multi-pitch and Multi-expression voices. This Voicebank has three timbres that are 4 pitches each (A3~C5), making SALIENT a total of 12 VCVs. The three timbres can be used all in one track by utilizing the SuffixBroker. SALIENT’s three expressions are:

“Original”: Normal voice with a cutesy, over-pronounced property.
“Tender”: Gentle whisper voice.
“Wild”: A sharp power bank.

SALIENT also has some fun add-ons, including several breaths (intake and outtake), western L notes (all timbres, all pitches), a Growl CV bank (Mono-pitch), Vocal Fry (sounds best used with Original/Tender, 4 pitch), and Glottal Stops (all timbres, all pitches).

Using SALIENT

Using SALIENT is easy, and it is similar to our other OGIENOID Multi-expression and Multi-pitch Voicebanks. No additional effort is required to use the Multi-pitch function, as it is already configured by our team for plug-and-play use. Using different expressions is the same as our previous releases; Original is the default voice, and you can use the up and down arrows (“↑” and “↓”) with UTAU’s built-in SuffixBroker to use Wild and Tender, respectively.

SALIENT’s extras, however, require a little more effort. We are including new suffixes to separate these extras, but SALIENT’s oto follows many other popular UTAU’s examples.

Tutorials

We are striving to create new video tutorials in the coming weeks on how to use the OGIENOIDs, especially their upcoming Multi-pitch, Multi-expression voices. Many people benefit from learning through visuals and audio rather than text, and we want to meet those needs!

New Outfit & Logo!

KASAI OG01’s new outfit for SALIENT brings a fresh new take on her Original design. We wanted to create a general “upgraded” feel, but still, retain the charm of her CV clothing. KASAI OG01’s new attire includes fabrics such as pleather, bridal satin, and cotton for a variety of textures in her new look. You may also notice more emphasis on her design’s secondary periwinkle hue, now incorporated throughout. We feel her new outfit allows her bright personality to shine through more effectively than before!

Thank you all so much for your patience! We look forward to bringing SALIENT to you!

HONOS OG04 UTAU – Release Day

STUDIO OGIEN’s first Tenor voice, HONOS OG04, hits the scene today in a stunning 3D PV release!

A mellow and calming androgynous voice. HONOS OG04’s song will soothe you.

HONOS OG04’s Video Release

HONOS OG04’s voicebank is a mono-pitch VCV style VB with a few different voice types. She boasts a soothing, androgynous voice in three different timbres: soft, normal, and strong.

The full version combines three voicebanks into one, allowing the user to plug in “↑” or “↓” into the UST from the SuffixBroker for appends. This makes all voices available to use in one UST, which helps to make editing, tuning, and mixing faster and easier.

The Character:

Personality: HONOS OG04 is a very strong person, physically and mentally. She has often been deemed the “rock” of the OGIENOIDs due to her calm, mellow, and level-headed nature. Though she may seem a little scary, she’s just a big, tall softy. When the situation calls for it, though, she will not hesitate to step into a fight. HONOS OG04 is rather androgynous in appearance and voice, and her interests reflect that trait. She enjoys girly things like makeup, getting her nails done, and getting her brows shaped as well as more masculine things like contact sports. While she enjoys and appreciates looking at frilly, over-the-top girly fashions, she doesn’t like the way she looks in them, personally. HONOS OG04 much prefers wearing comfortable attire that flatters her more masculine body type.

HONOS OG04 and VIRTUS OG02

Relationships: She is closest to the other two members of her triad, VIRTUS OG02, and THEIA OG03. As the three became OGIENOIDs together, they were good friends from the very beginning. HONOS OG04, however, will admit her best friend is VIRTUS OG02. The two have a very special bond and had met before they came to STUDIO OGIEN. She finds herself very protective of the yellow OGIENOID, and the two are rather inseparable. Other than her triad, HONOS OG04 finds herself helping out AXIS OG06 a lot. Since the two are kind of group moms, they find themselves getting the other girls out of trouble rather often.

Head on over to her brand new page by clicking here! HONOS OG04 has many fun assets, including a 3D MMD compatible model and a 2D LipSync model.

THEIA OG03 – Release Day!

THEIA OG03 officially joins our OGIENOID lineup!

A vivid, lively vocal that inspires excitement in her listeners!

THEIA OG03 makes her official debut today!

THEIA OG03’s voicebank is a mono-pitch VCV style VB with a few different voice types. She boasts a lively, feminine contralto voice in three different timbres: soft, normal, and strong.

The full version combines three voicebanks into one, allowing the user to plug in “↑” or “↓” into the UST from the SuffixBroker for appends. This makes all voices available to use in one UST, which helps to make editing, tuning, and mixing faster and easier.

Personality: The original leader of the OGIENOIDs, she finds joy in helping others succeed. Though a little bit bossy, THEIA OG03’s optimistic nature is infectious! Theia is perhaps the most energetic, optimistic individual you may ever meet! Constantly looking on the bright side, it’s hard to get her down. She’s a little bit of a flirt, but she just can’t help herself around cute girls! When it comes time to get to work, however, she is extremely professional and puts her feelings aside.

Relationships: Of all the OGIENOIDs, THEIA OG03 is closest to HONOS OG04 and VIRTUS OG02, the other two members of her triad. Since her development began, the three were always together, so they are very comfortable in each other’s presence. Still, THEIA OG03 would call herself a friend of every OGIENOID. Being their original leader, she developed many mentor-student relationships throughout her career.

THEIA OG03 UTAU – Release Announcement

Announcing THEIA OG03!

The lilac OGIENOID, THEIA OG03, releases on September 15th, 2018. We are so very excited to introduce her to you all and officially add her to our OGIENOID lineup! With a bright, solid voice, THEIA will be the first OGIENOID introduced with a different voice provider than KASAI, AXIS, ATLAS, or APOLLO. We are pretty stoked to add this additional diversity to our project.

Some fun facts about her:

  • For her color scheme, her primary color is purple, and her secondary color is gold.
  • In story, she was the first performing OGIENOID, and would become the instructor and inspiration for many future OGIENOIDs.
  • THEIA is Native American.
  • Her favorite animal is the butterfly, specifically the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, more informally known as the Tiger butterfly.
  • She also identifies as lesbian.

THEIA OG03’s Japanese VCV voicebank release features September, 15th on our YouTube channel. We are preparing for the big day by creating a special release video featuring her MMD model. In the meantime, make sure to subscribe to our channel so that you can be notified immediately when the video posts!

Can’t wait to find out about her? Take a sneak peek at her brand new page!

The YA-Series – Released Today!

The YA-Series makes its debut! A trio of children, this lively bunch is ready to take the stage.

Voice Release PV

We’re so excited to release the YA-Series today! A long-planned addition to our lineup, these derivative characters are the children of AXIS OG06 and YARON. They were conceptualized years ago, back when STUDIO OGIEN was nothing serious.

How did these children come to be? AXIS OG06, a biodroid, can synthesize “life” using her pre-existing code and databases to program a new personality later transferred to a new, permanent body. Their physical features and characteristics are generated at random using data from both their parents.

Her children started as parts formed within her as infants, and they were later upgraded to a toddler form that would grow over time. Eventually, they, like their parents, will reach a predetermined physical adult form and cease aging. Thus, their current “ages” estimate their physical build with human growth.

Like the OGIENOIDs, these children feel emotion, pain, etc. Thank you so much to the members of the STUDIO OGIEN team for all the help!

As always, the cover was mixed by AstralLace. The storyboard and Dango art were sketched by TheMellwis, lined by PRISMKidd, and colored by Ceren (who also did the last image of the parents). Finally, this adorable PV was put together by Owlnerd, who hit it out of the park! Thank you all for your help!

The YA-Series is a joint property between STUDIO OGIEN and The Mell Labs (LadyOgien and TheMellwis).

ATLAS OG07 CELESTIAL – Release Day

The circle is complete…

ATLAS CELESTIAL Release Video

CELESTIAL is the third and final release in the GODDESS series. The GODDESS series is inspired by fictional lore from STUDIO OGIEN original stories. ATLAS OG07’s Goddess alter-ego/other self is called by the name “Attison.” Attison was the second of two sisters born to the Goddess Kassandra. Above all, she is known to assist her blind mother in ruling “Heaven” (the realm above the skies) and assisting the dead in moving on to their next life. When her sister, Axelia, descended from the heavens to be with a mortal man, it was Attison who guarded her divinity and watched over her. When it was time for Axelia to return and accept her punishment, Attison protected her from a harsh fate by removing control of the skies from her elder sister. Attison would later bestow the skies to her daughter, Apoline.

About the CELESTIAL Voicebank:

Multipitch JP VCV bank. Gentle female voice.

Pitches Included in the voicebank: G3, A3, B3, C4, D#4, F#4, G4​

The multiple pitches require no additional effort to use. For greater clarity, please use a high Y and c flag. For a sharper voice, experiment with EQ levels when mixing.

KASAI OG01 AMORE – Release Day

She’s here!

AMORE is the second release in the GODDESS series. The GODDESS series takes place in fictional lore from STUDIO OGIEN original stories. KASAI OG01’s Goddess alter-ego/other self is named “Kassandra.”

Kassandra became the first mortal soul to achieve clairvoyance and ascend to a higher plane. For thousands of years, she watched over human souls and guided them to other souls they were meant to meet. Additionally, her guidance was heavily placed upon children and showing them to their proper mothers to be born, making her known as the Goddess of Unconditional Love. Eventually, Kassandra became incredibly lonely, wishing for children of her own. To fulfill this wish, she gave her left eye for her first daughter, Axelia, and her right eye for her second, Attison. Though she was now blind and could not see her daughters’ faces, she was never lonely.

About the AMORE Voicebank:

APOLLO OG0X OGIENOID – Release day!

APOLLO OG0X has been a work in progress for a few months now, but she’s finally finished. We’ve worked hard, and we hope you enjoy her!

About APOLLO OG0X:

Personality: Moody, solitary. Easily described as a “brat.” APOLLO OG0X prefers not to be bothered, going so far as to shut herself in her room every day unless dragged out. Moody and often irritable, she’s quick to snap back and start an argument. But, though she tries hard to hide it, she has a soft side; she prefers not to show it, just like any other teenager. Talk about growing pains! Her fellow OGIENOIDs are concerned she is addicted to video games.

Relationships: APOLLO OG0X tends to keep to herself, but of all the OGIENOIDs, she is closest to ATLAS OG07 because she “totally just won’t leave me alone!”. APOLLO OG0X looks up to HONOS OG04 due to her relaxed, calm attitude.

About the Voice:

APOLLO OG0X boasts a robust, tomboyish voice fit for many different genres of music. Like all OGIENOID standard releases, she possesses three Japanese VCV voice libraries, one soft, one standard, and one power.


Her full version combines the three voicebanks into one, allowing the user to plug in “↑” or “↓” into the UST from the SuffixBroker for appends. This makes all voices available to use in one UST, which helps to make editing, tuning, and mixing faster and easier.

AXIS OG06 TELLURIC – Append Release Day

Today, we are excited to release AXIS TELLURIC, a 7-pitch Japanese VCV bank for the UTAU software! TELLURIC represents AXIS OG06‘s alter-ego/other self from the fictional world of her creator. In this world, she is known as The Goddess Axelia.

TELLURIC

[te-loo r-ik] 
adjective

1. of or relating to the earth; terrestrial.
2. of or proceeding from the earth or soil.

Information and Lore

Axelia was the first sister created by The Goddess Kassandra. As a result of being the first born, she was given dominion over things that created life in order to regulate the health of the planet and its people. Above all, she is known as the Goddess of harvest and fauna.


Later, when she fell in love with a mortal, she lost dominion over the skies and became the Goddess of Fauna and Fated Love. She met her mortal love in a place called the Eternal Garden, a marvelous garden that never wilted, populated with purple flowers.

Her followers believe it lives because she resides there still to this day, waiting for her lover to be reborn and find her once again.

The TELLURIC Voice:

Multipitch VCV bank with a solid female voice.

Pitches Included: G3, A3, B3, C4, D#4, F#4, G4, C#5​

We have included the Prefixmap, so using the voicebank requires no extra effort! Therefore, no additional thought is needed to use the multiple pitches. In short, they are already configured for the user.

However, in order to use TELLURIC’s Falsetto bank, one must add “F” in the SuffixBroker. In order to achieve greater clarity, please use high Y and c flags. For a sharper voice, experiment with EQ levels when mixing.

Lastly, you can catch the official release video here!
