Basically, if you live with guardians and don't have your own bank account, don't even consider Vocaloid. And especially if you want a hard to get in your country Vocaloid, don't force your guardians into a confusing forwarding service process or Japanese/Korean/Chinese websites if they don't know the language. At the least, save up your own money: I used birthday money to buy Lily's starter when I was 13. If you are going to use money aside from yours, I don't think you should be getting Vocaloid. Hell, when I first started music, I made all my originals in C major to keep things easy for me (but I trashed all those old songs by now) Read up a little on music theory, at least on keys and chords.

Vocaloid is a virtual instrument, meaning those of you who know nothing-this product is NOT directed at you. Do you want to make original music? Covers? Talkloids? Have a serious use in mind before blindly throwing away $100+ĭo you know key signatures? Can you read the grand staff? Do you know basic chords? If music is your goal, original or covers, you NEED music theory. I wanted to start with a starter guide series as my first series here, as there are SO MANY people that I see just lost about getting started! Vocaloid is kinda overwhelming when you start getting into the technical side, and especially so if you aren't dealing with installations on a regular basis like myself.īefore even considering getting Vocaloid, there's some thing you need to think about.ĭon't buy it because 'I want my favorite loid' or because everyone has one. Everyone wants to see some technical posts so here I am-the person too self conscious to put out art but plenty confident to talk technology.

Hey everyone! Here's a little mini series I guess.
