We have new merchandise available on Storenvy: 4 double-sided keychains with front-side glitter epoxy! These feature the first characters of JAE VOCAL PROJECT, each with a distinct design: Xiao Meihua (DeepVocal), Ser0 (3rd Anniversary), Canary (UTAU Japanese 1.0), and Xiao Shancha (DeepVocal). The art was illustrated by Melody (@faynatical). A few specials are offered for these keychains:
Please keep in mind that due to COVID-19, shipments may be delivered later than usual. In addition, for overseas customers, please refer to this website to see if shipping services are available from the USA to you!
Want to see these as stickers, buttons, and more on Redbubble? Well, we will be making these available later. From now on, keychain designs that are also perfectly compatible for Redbubble will be made available after about at least three months since their initial debut, but you can always purchase them as keychains after that unless it's been decided to retire them. We have many more merchandise ideas circulating, but we can't show them to you just yet. For now, we hope you like these keychains by Melody!

JAE VOCAL PROJECT has an official Redbubble shop now! There, purchased goods are produced by the vendor and directly ship to you! For now, you'll see the familiar designs by winter in addition to a few doodle samples from Migi! More designs are to come! As for our Storenvy, it was initially closed due to COVID-19. However, since Redbubble can produce buttons, we are retiring the ones that were available through Storenvy. Our Storenvy shop will only serve to offer products that cannot be produced by Redbubble (keychains, different shaped buttons, etc.). The shop will be reopened once we have new items available! To access Redbubble, hover over the "Shops" tab and it will appear in a dropdown menu!
Thank you for reading! We hope you enjoy the products available! A new LipSync model is now available! It's of Xiao Shancha and her model was created by Catlione! The model has various expressions in addition to some other items, like arctic wolf ears to represent Luna and a tiny Chinese dwarf hamster, Snowball, on her shoulder! The model is downloadable from Shancha's webpage. Please do not use the model commercially as this is a rule set from Catlione. You are free to use her in videos, but please credit Catlione for the model,
There would be more LipSync models to come, so please look forward to it!
A new update for Xiao Meihua's Chinese voicebank is in the works! Almost a year ago, we've released her CV+VV voicebank for UTAU, but with the arrival of DeepVocal, things needed to change. Her CV+VV voicebanks could not be ported to DeepVocal without facing potential issues, so it was decided that she would be using Risku's CVVChinese reclist instead!
Her first demo for this update features her Natural DeepVocal voicebank. It's a cover of "心上秋" by litterzy, with the lyrics written by 冉语优. The cover was done by Migi and the mixing was completed by Mina.Ki. The harmonies were sung by JAE VOCAL PROJECT's Canary and Xiao Shancha, in addition to affiliate Tora☆Ouji's Pinku and a guest vocal: Yi. Yi is a male Mandarin Chinese and Japanese DeepVocal from Dream Vocal Project, and was added as a needed Mandarin harmony track. The demo features the original video and the description lists the entire staff for the song, so please check it out when you can! It's available on YouTube, SoundCloud, and bilibili!
This update is expected to have four DeepVocal demos and two UTAU demos in all! We hope you are looking forward to them!
As for any other Chinese voicebanks, we hope to have Xiao Shancha and Yu Junjie use this reclist as well. Their original CV+VV voicebanks will be scrapped in the meantime. We have yet to record either vocalist. There are so many interesting projects coming up soon; many of which are JAE VOCAL PROJECT related! Please consider following the team members on their social medias and media platforms so you don't miss a thing!
One year ago, Xiao Shancha was released for UTAU as JAE-04! Can you believe it?
Like Canary before her, she received different usages throughout the year. They were even featured in a duet this past Halloween! For her anniversary, we managed to complete a full video of the "from Y to Y" DeepVocal demo! The song was written by JimmyThumb-P back in 2009. This cover and mixing was done by Yakou, the art was illustrated by Ariaera, and the video editing was handled by Cluemily! Everyone worked very hard on it and we hope that listeners were anticipating the full version. It's been almost two months since Shancha's DeepVocal released, so we are happy to have a completed song using it available for everyone to access! This song is featured on YouTube and SoundCloud. It will also be available on bilibili, but at the time of this post, it is not up yet due to technical difficulties.
We still have some things coming in the month, and hopefully, soon after that. Right now, we can't confirm what these things may be. You'll just have to wait and see!
Thank you for your support for JAE VOCAL PROJECT and for reading! JAE VOCAL PROJECT wishes everyone a happy winter season! To celebrate, JAE:01 Xiao Meihua and JAE-04: Xiao Shancha have been released for DeepVocal! Both sing in Japanese and were developed by HitCoder. For Meihua, she has two voicebanks: Natural and Sweet. They are CVVCV monopitch voicebanks. An UTAU version will be released some time in 2020. For Shancha, her voicebank was ported from UTAU and remains a CV monopitch voicebank. We are hoping to update this at some point, but because we don't know when that would be, we are releasing her like this for now. Both have more plans for DeepVocal, but we cannot give more detail at the moment. In the crossfade below, there are three songs in total. The proper credits are in the description as well as the video itself! As of this post, the website was updated with the new voicebank releases. We are still currently working on editing the wiki pages, but VocaDB is finished. Meihua and Shancha were given adorable winter outfits for DeepVocal! They were designed by Purpled and illustrated by Oweruru! Information on the designs themselves will be available on DeepVocal wiki. You can download their voicebanks through our Dropbox and Baidu Drive accounts. Please read the rules and terms of service before doing so!
Meihua and Shancha DeepVocal serve as the last voicebank releases for 2019. We still have a lot of interesting projects coming up within the next few months! We hope you like the Xiao sisters and consider using their voicebanks! As always, we are looking forward to hear what you do with them!
Taking a small break from the excitement surrounding JD's upcoming release, a new video has surfaced!
NebulousViper covered "π" by Janus, and featured the vocals of Xiao Shancha, Canary, Seishi Starchaser, and Xiao Meihua! This cover uses their DeepVocal voicebanks, so this is considered an unofficial demo for Meihua and Shancha. The mixing was done by karasuhana, the art was done by Devsies, and the video editing was done by DIVINITY! The VSQx was supplied by Janus.
Shancha's DeepVocal voicebanks is a direct port of her UTAU voicebank. This means that it is CV Japanese. We are aware that there is risk by doing this, since DeepVocal does not tend to favor CV. The reason why we are releasing this voicebank is because we do not know when we would be working on Shancha again. We would rather release something for her now than wait a long time for something later.
This cover uses Meihua's Sweet voicebank. For DeepVocal and for her next update for her Japanese UTAU voicebank, she would be receiving two voicebanks: Natural and Sweet; just like her Mandarin and English packages. The voicebanks are CVVCV like Canary's. The DeepVocal version would be releasing first. The sisters are expected to release together, but we are unsure if they would be available in late 2019 or some time in early 2020. Please keep in mind that the designs in the "Pi" video are not meant to represent their final DeepVocal outfits. Those would be revealed upon release. The next time we'll see you all is on December 6 for JD's UTAU release! For now, we hope you enjoy this cover! See you on Friday! Within the last couple of months, we released three new videos featuring full length songs! Two of the songs are PV versions of demo songs and one of them is a new cover! The first video is for "MATRYOSHKA" by Hachi. This was a demo for Xiao Shancha's Japanese voicebank and also features Xiao Meihua. The cover and mixing was done by SlightlyShredded, the art was drawn by MochaBunnii, and the video was completed by Cluemily. This video was uploaded to YouTube in September, and is also available on bilibili and Niconico. It is not available on SoundCloud due to copyright issues. Later, a PV version of "Ame o Tsureyuku" featuring kEna was uploaded. Cluemily worked on the video for this as well, while the rest of the components were fulfilled by Preuss. The song was written by Hadano-P and the lyrics were written by 裏花火. The song originally featured VOCALOID Kagamine Len. The PV is available on YouTube, bilibili, and Niconico. Last but not least, we put together a project for Halloween! For months, the JAE VOCAL PROJECT members were working on a cover of "Furaan Furaan ~Zonbii~" featuring Canary and Shancha. Originally written by Nem for VOCALOIDs GUMI and CUL, the cover was handled by Lanttu and the mixing was done by SlightlyShredded. The artwork was illustrated by partialkakera and the video was finished by Purpled. The video features Yu Junjie as a cameo! With "Furaan Furaan ~Zonbii~" completed, we can now return our focuses to developing more voicebanks. We are still expecting to release Meihua English, Meihua DeepVocal, and Shancha DeepVocal in 2019. JD, Ser0 DeepVocal, Yu Junjie, and kEna are still expected to be released at some point, and it is possible that most of them may release in 2020.
We hope you are looking forward to our next projects and endeavors! Have a wonderful holiday season in advance!
During the week, we have revealed two new demos featuring the DeepVocal voicebanks of the Xiao sisters!
On Sunday, October 20, NebulousViper (more commonly known as Migi) worked on and uploaded a short cover of "Flower Colored☆Shy Girl", which was written by kinoshita. The song was mixed by SlightlyShredded and the MIDI was done by Marukun. The placeholder image was drawn by Crusher and the song features Meihua.
On October 25, we uploaded a short cover of "from Y to Y", written by JimmyThumb-P, on SoundCloud. It features Shancha's vocals, and was covered and mixed by yakou. The placeholder image was illustrated by RaccoonButler. This used IrisFlower's UST.
Both songs will be receiving full length videos. We are still getting the materials together! We currently have no set release date for these voicebanks, but we are hoping for the last quarter of 2019 or early 2020.
We hope that you are looking forward to these releases! At the time of this post, please expect the following (in no particular order):
The time has come to reveal the final design for Xiao Meihua English!
But first things first, JAE VOCAL PROJECT showed the third demo for her vocals. It's a cover of "Copycat" by CircusP and features her Natural voicebank. The cover and mixing was done by SlightlyShredded. The artwork was handled by Crispy6usiness and the video was done by DIVINITY. Special thanks were given to Pandora, who assisted with the video a little!
If you've seen the video, you may recognize or wonder about the ladies shown in the reflections of the mirror. Two of them are from the JAE VOCAL PROJECT cast: Ser0 and Xiao Shancha! The other two are affiliates: Nazo Eima from Rvelvoid in purple and Nintone Reicheru by StarGamer01 in yellow! If you are interested in these characters, please see Ser0 and Shancha's webpages as well as the "Affiliates" dropdown menu for Eima and Reicheru!
As you can see, the video acts as a design reveal for this voicebank! Meihua's English design draws inspiration from dawn and sunset for the color palette. It is a fancier style compared to her default Chinese design! The final illustration was done by Riisago! The concept was done by Purpled!
Meihua English still has one song left as a demo, but we'll be doing things a little differently this time. Rather than release the full song, we are planning to incorporate it into the crossfade video first as a preview! After that, we will release the full PV!
Right now, we don't really have a solid release date at the moment, but we are still hoping for Autumn 2019! Depending on the workload, we might be able to release her in late September! We encourage you to follow our twitter (@JaeVocalProject) so you don't miss out! We have so many projects to show you all and we're hoping to reveal them within this year! |
