No, it's not that simple. I tried doing the voice for Mendou, Megane... both sucked horribly. Eventually I tried Ten which went pretty well but I had to go through trial an error to get one good sample

And it's still not quite right. So it does take a few tries to get the sample sounding right.

And here I thought you said you just wanted something to test with.

[UruseiNeo]

Okay so I think I made a good sample for Ten but until I can get the BGM I'm not gonna release it.

It's the very first appearance of Ten from episode 2, first time you see him as he comes out of the peach. Line is "This Earth sure's a scary planet"

I looked in the music box but couldn't find the BGM so if someone could direct me to it or if someone can give me an episode which has the same BGM, even if it's longer, without any other sound interruptions?

Thank you ^_^
Posted on: March 18, 2008, 01:36:51 AMGood news, I found the feature that changes the pitch of voices so this way we can adjust a voice if it's not quite what we want. I already used it to make my Ten voice better.
Posted on: March 19, 2008, 03:32:18 AMCata, do you want to try a Benten and/or Ryuunosuke voice for us? If you can't get your voice quite how you want it I have the pitch adjuster.

That thing sure is fun to play with ^_^ I've been using it on some of my songs XD

I think I have a "dumb" voice but I can try doing some dubbing. Can you explain me how to record my voice please? Tell me what Benten and Ryuu' lines are please.

[UruseiNeo]

Well to record ur voice all u really need is a microphone that hooks up to the computer. I'm pretty sure Windows Movie Maker (which usually is installed on the computer when u get one) has a recording feature.

This is one of Benten's lines from part 2 of episode 15:

"Hey, Lum! What's new?"
(Lum speaks)
"I was bored silly, so I came to see Earth's Setsubun to kill time." (Setsubun pronounciation: Sets-oo-boon)

And here is a line by Ryuunosuke from her debuting episode 63:

"Why the hell should I be like a man?! I'm a... GIRL!"

Anyways, don't worry about ur voice. I hated my voice too especially when I tried doing a Megane and Mendou voice. Finally I tried Ten and found that using the pitch adjuster helps A LOT. With that feature, I can do a few voices now.

Thanks for explaining it to me! I'll make some samples tomorrow (if I have time to).

[UruseiNeo]

Thanks

I haven't seen Janus or Cosmic for a while and they're kinda co-organizing the dubbing with me. Cosmic apparently hasn't even signed in for a few days.

Hmmm... I think I might be able to do an Onsen-Mark voice with the pitch adjuster...
Posted on: March 20, 2008, 11:35:43 PMOkay... does anyone know what happened to Cosmic?

[cata]

I don't. I haven't got time to go to the messenger because I have "extra" homework and it's really hard and it takes a few hours everyday, I have to organise a 5 day camp, I have to create an outfit (buy the stuff and really make it) for the final night of the camp and somedays, I have to visit my family and that makes my tasks being beyond schedule. Sorry for this offtopic. Anyways I'll try to be online as much as I can.

[UruseiNeo]

that's fine. Not really a rush for you to get a sample audio done.

Although I would like SOMEONE to send me a sample to work with since nobody has yet T_T

[Cosmic King]

I am back,uruseineo,and dont worry about the voice samples as i shall submit them soon

[UruseiNeo]

alright then, hope to see them son ^_^

[Kroptik]

I'm not helping in this cos frankly my spoken english sucks. xD

Just let me ask you this: are you guys sure that what you're doing is LEGAL?
We all know we don't have any rights over the anime.

[UruseiNeo]

you do realize that people fandub animes all the time right? It's not like we are taking credit for creating the episode. And also I think I heard someone say that the rights were distributed among multiple people one of which being Stan Lee.

[sidzero]

I read the Stan Lee thing somewhere here before, but I seriously doubt it. I think it's all in the hands of Takahashi-sensei, and/or her publisher.

[UruseiNeo]

well so far no one has taken down the subbed episodes from youtube or veoh so... why would they take down fandubs?
