Hey so now that I’m home back from work I can write an in depth review/PERSONAL opinion piece on the IA NYC 2015 concert for what it’s worth (tl;dr Blah Blah). Now I already posted a few things in the topic along with shitty camera pics of the concert itself and the free booklet that was given out at the end, but I can put all my thought into one cohesive post. Also those who also went to the concert feel free to add to the post or correct me if there’s some discrepancies in my reporting, my mind’s not as sharp as it used to be.

Now I’m not an avid IA fan, pretty much P Taka’s song Dream (again this was mentioned in a previous post) made me fall in love with her voice which got me interested in searching for more of her songs. Since this concert is something that comes out once in a blue moon I wanted to make sure to experience it first hand.

First off despite misconceptions I found out that the doors OPENS at 7 and the show starts at 8, not start at 7 which is what I originally thought (I lost the link where I found out about the time of the show). So as the crowd entered the venue it’s definitely a much smaller theater compared to The Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC which was where the Miku Expo was held in last year. When the show started the projector screen rolled up and it revealed a monitor not the “hologram “screen”” that was used for the Crypton Vocaloid shows. So once IA appeared I noticed that aside from looking really beautiful that there was a different quality of her appearance compared to Miku and the rest of the Crypton gang. Her facial features were more defined I guess would be the proper terminology.

>>14214440

cont...

Now there were two things off right off the bat, one it was like watching a TV, and two there was no live band which added to the feeling of watching something on TV. So as she’s performing I noticed that she would dance to and from 3 specific locations, the middle, far left and far right hand sides, I guess to allow the audience from all angles to see her. Then there was a gimmick implemented in IA’s shows that wasn’t implemented in Crypton’s, live dancers and I think they were put there to give the illusion of “live” entertainment since IA is not “projected” like Miku and the lack of a live band. Seems kinda lame IMO, again MY OPINION ONLY.

So as the show went on in the middle they showed something KagePro related, again I’m not knowledgable regarding that as well. Eventually she performed the “last” song and ended the set the crowd of course wanted an encore, and this was an amusing situation as you may or may not have read from other Anonymous posters in this thread. So as the crowd chanted “Encore!” the projector screen came down and stayed down for quite a bit which dejected the crowd as it seemed like their cries were not being heard. Then the projector came on and the first thing shown was an iPhone screen then a clip was hurriedly played, it was that of either the Japan or LA concert of IA and One performing Into Starlight… (which can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Ems4_tMQvE ) Lame but there was a purpose to this. It gave the background dancers a chance to change and dance to the next IA song as the projector screen rose. After that bit IA played one more song then that ended the show.

So again with my VERY limited knowledge of IA and her songs these were the only ones I knew listed closely to the order I remembered them in:

- Inner Arts
- Circuit Disco
- See The Lights
- Shooting Star
- We Gotta Run

Of course there were more but I don’t know their titles.

>>14214445

cont...

Overall It was an experience for sure. Was it worth the money? Well that I can’t really answer since I enjoyed myself on some levels and yet there were a number of things that they could’ve improved on. It would’ve been nice if they played in a bigger venue but they don’t have the same amount of capital as Crypton to acquire the Hammerstein Ballroom or something just as big. Due to the cramped space in the Gramercy Theater I didn’t even bother activating my glowstick since if I waved my arm I would start slamming into people and sure enough I got whacked in the head by a girl who promptly apologized.

For those who are interested I compiled all my shitty phone camera photos of the concert, yes all including really shitty blurry ones since I couldn’t be arsed to check em along with the shitty pictures of the booklet that I already posted in this thread. You can get them here: filedropper (DOT COME BACKSLASH) ianycconcert2015

Again please share your thoughts, add or correct me if I was off.

So she wasn't actually projected past the screen?

Visibly in terms of depth I mean.

I'm not certain because I didn't turn around to see the projector but it seems like basically a 3D image on a TV screen, to me anyway. Perhaps some other chaps who went to the show can chime in on this as well.

EDIT: revision

>>14214453
It seemed like the front part of the area was packed, as the back part of the area, the ones near the stairs for the VIP chairs, had enough space to at least go a little nuts with the glowstick. Though, I guess it's understandable if people wanted to get a closer look at IA.

>>14214583
>>14214642
Yeah, it was basically a 3D model being projected on a screen, with enough depth to blend into the background to create a sense of a 3D model dancing along with the live dancers. Though, it didn't help that the backlights kept colliding with the screen, as well as the occasional reflection of the audience being seen on the screen.

>>14214642
Sounds similar to what they were doing with those GUMI concerts a few years back. Probably not worth going to London for. Chvrches and August Burns Red are coming up that month and will cost a fraction of the price and won't involve a 1,000 mile bus trip.

Still like hearing her sing songs that I already like but I don't disagree that she has very little original songs. Liking this Jazz version too.

>>14218344
Why is senbonzakura the best song ever?

>>14223601
It's not though. It's entry level secondary bait on the same level as kagepro.

>>14223601

Sorry. That was over the line. I had a bad day. Senbonzakura is a great song but there are many others better than it if you open up and listen to new things.

Alright anon, it's just an opinion. And I have heard a lot of so called newer songs, I just don't like them as much as senbonzakura for miku or meltdown for rin. And when I say senbonzakura, I mean arranges included not just the original miku version.

Yes, I do have some newer favorite songs such as hitorinbo envy and donut hole, but senbonzakura just consistently sticks out in my mind is all. Once again, I said that half jokingly, maybe just because I saw it in the fanart and the tune started playing in my mind. maybe you need to be Asian to fully enjoy it, which I am.

On a separate note, I don't consider either of them entry level, kagepro or not, shit isn't melt or love is war or electric angel or even last night good night tier. Just because other people like it doesn't mean it ruins a song for me. The gigap arrange of electric angel is honestly great and makes the song worth a replay for me. That said, don't act so elitist over a 4 minute fucking song m8

>>14223896
A nice Mayu anything would be good. I'd collab with a Mayu fan in a heartbeat, isn't saying much though, as I'd produce a song for any of the smaller Vocaloids in said heartbeat.

So true. It's probably my favorite Rin & Len song of them all (and I love a lot of Rin and Len songs). Nothing wrong with liking popular stuff.

Apparently vgperson's channel on YT was taken down because of a copyright strike. So many subbed videos with millions of views even just gone...

>>14228438
I never really paid much attention to Vocaloid on Youtube. Was it really that popular there?

>>14229288
Yeah, it is infested with the worst kind of people as you can well imagine.

>>14229288
Quite popular. There was a subbed video for Matryoshka that had over 10m iirc.

>>14229491
Youtube comments are always shit though.

>>14229656
Nico comments are shit too. It's just none of the actual content producers are on YouTube, or even if they are, uploading to it is an afterthought and they don't interact with their fanbase on there.

>>14229491
It's pretty annoying when people never seem to acknowledge producers and group songs solely by what Vocaloid sang them, or ask if a song is part of Kagepro, Shuuen no Shiori or some other shitty series when it's completely unrelated. But Nico and YouTube both have faggots like that and you can hide the comments in both sites anyway.

>>14229288
It's where the vast majority of non-Japanese speakers (so, the vast majority of Western Vocaloid fans) went to listen to Vocaloid given that they're people in need of subtitles.

Goddammit I think I fell in love with IA...

She's so cute like in the video for Shooting Star where she does those jazz hand-ish moves during the part of the song that goes "Oh ohhhh ohhhhhhh...". I just wish she was here for me to hug tight and rub my cheek against her cheek.

Anyone really excited about the 闇音レンリ update? I've been in love with the voicebank since I heard the cover of 影炎≒Variation. Hopefully with the exposure gained from cillia using her she'll be more popular just like what happened with メイジ.
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm27246543

>>14231719
Depends if konuko picks her up because that's what gave meiji her popularity in the first place. I honestly don't think so because her voice is not as versatile as meiji's and is niche / sounds best with r&b and the nips hate that genre.

Man, the vocafry here sounds like kim kardashian

>>14229656
They are always awful but with Vocaloid they generally piss me off more as I am a lot more emotionally invested it.

>>14230283
I found the waifu fags and generally creepyness more annoying but I also found what you said rather sad. It is why I as a producer tend to avoid associating with Vocaloid despite using it heavily. I want people to notice my whole effort not just my Vocaloid work. Yeah, I just use Nico in Japanese, they can be fags all they want as I don't understand them.

>>14231475

I know it's probably a long shot but by any chance does anyone have a copy of the IA/00 album or know where to get a hold of a CD? I've been searching for it for nearly 2 years but just can't get one for myself. If anyone has one I would pay a pretty hefty premium to take it off their hands.

Some Vocaloid musicians actually have a brain.

>>14241859
Those themes being?

Either way, I stand by what I typed. There are some things inclusive to one medium you can't execute with the other, I think some Vocaloid musicians are aware of this and exclusively love to write and produce music instead of venturing into writing novels, manga adaptations, etc cetera., because they know where their strengths and faults stand.

Regarding themes, isn't that what make Vocaloid unique? This isn't commercialized pop. The musicians each create their own distinctive voice, sound, themes and all within their music. Sure, they may get influenced by other Vocaloid musicians yet it isn't "I like your style so I'll mimicry what you did onto my next album" it's more like they use their influences to motivate them.

Novel adaption.
Which isn't much to really care about in the first place, now a japanese person can pay 1,200 for a fanfic oh wow.
A lot of publishing companies are just going towards songs that stay on the Vocaranking in an attempt to get a quick yen.

>>14243990
I don't see the music as the main content of kagepro even if it came first. The music was meant to lay the groundwork for something else from the very beginning.

>>14245664
No it wasn't. Jin didn't give a shit about it and honestly never expected Kagerou Daze to blow up on nico.

Light Novel adaption from what I remember. I'm not sure of the details to be honest as I always avoid anything to do with Echo like the common cold. It never fails to shock me how bad that song is.

>>14245706
I'd say it is the most likely case, that shit was awful all round.

>>14245754
I wouldn't be so sure. I met a trap friend at a con who seemed to think that his music was worth something and Vocaloid fans hardly have patrician music tastes.

Vocaloid newbie here.
I'm this close to get the Project Diva games for the PSP, only 2nd has Popipo?

If you want vocaloid english, listen to anything by SAT.

I'm actively working with utau and very much into the entire fandom. Of course, I still like vocaloid but more for the technical aspects such as tuning. utau is pretty fun and I've been doing it for a couple of years now. A utau version of comiket was recently held in Japan and I saw it all over my twitter.

Favorite Voicebanks to work with:
Hibiki Shinji
Asane Bou
Gahata Meiji

Favorite Songs:

Pretty good selection, IMO. Looking forward to Lost One's Weeping and Brain Revolution Girl in particular.

Kinda sucks seeing all these screenshots with concert-style stages for the songs. I know it was announced far earlier, but I always preferred the story-style music videos in Project Diva.

Also, it's weird that they based Rin's Module on the PV for Abstract Nonsense. I know the PV for The Lost One's Weeping features a male character and they needed SOMETHING for her, but it's jarring considering I associate that look with an entirely different song. Am I missing something?

>>14252161
I would personally, I love the Vippaloids, I can't UTAU worth a shit but I'd be willing to produce a song for it and help in anyway I can.

>>14255611
They will most likely cram something more recent in. You have guys like Hachioji, Utata P and Neru still releasing and evolving their sound. I'm still waiting for HSP to debut as well, they have plenty of modern shit they could use.

So how big is your vocaloid collection /jp/?

Right now, I'm have 3417 PURELY vocaloid/utauloid albums, all nice, tidied up and organized with album art and by artists.

Also I recommend this album.

https://shoesonthebath.bandcamp.com/album/hakuchumu

Very interesting shoe-gaze/post-rock/electronica with interesting Hatsune Miku vocals. Probably not for fans of denpa, hardcore or pop.

>>14252161
i have already voiced an utau (so far 4 voicebank updates) and imo the most recent one is fairly decent (unlike a lot of non-japanese ones her pronunciation is passable + decent quality for home recordings)
so yes, i would be interested

How do you even have that much? The mikudb torrent from 2 years ago only had like 2000, and that was literally every album on mikudb.

>>14256575
Both torrents on nyaa.eu from the old database totaled around 1780~ albums.

I obviously downloaded them, scoured a lot of vocarock from said torrents then mostly downloaded non-stop from various sites such as mikudb.moe, hikarinoakariost.info, baido, various blogs, web archives and well, using vocadb to find artists and then using google to find as many of a selected artists albums as possible. Did that for two years.

Keep in mind, I have avoided downloading a LOT and I mean a LOT of vocarock albums. Had I downloaded every single vocaloid album I'd stumbled upon, I'd have upwards of 6000 albums.

>>14256118
I have only about 30 or something, I only buy music (unless it is given as a free download) and then it's only from artists I believe deserve being supported. I could never have much more than this as I'm very picky especially when it comes to Vocaloid and I like to have a decent ratio so I'm not spammed by one type of music when I shuffle.

this is a long shot for me to ask here, but why not

So for a while i've been working on an IM@S cover with Miku singing it, but I've hit a wall after getting the midi imported, corrected the timing and lengthening the notes.

WIP so far: https://soundcloud.com/bejoba/owoamiku2

as you can see in pic related, the notes are all on one key. How do I know which key the notes should be in? I found a piano sheet for it which I can't read: http://i.imgur.com/RQzWa0S.png

would being able to read the sheet help me know what keys and notes for miku to sing in?

I got other questions if it's possible:

--which parameters should I use for Miku? not the default parameter settings that you can find i.e. which numbers to use, but rather out of all of the parameters available to use, I just need to understand which parameters to mess with for best results.

---how do I adjust the pronunciations for phonemes?

any help is appreciated.

>>14257481
>as you can see in pic related, the notes are all on one key. How do I know which key the notes should be in? would being able to read the sheet help me know what keys and notes for miku to sing in?

It's in F major. Pic related is where you can find the key signature. You have to figure out which notes to have her sing in by ear since that's the piano sheet music obviously, but knowing what key signature it's in definitely help's narrow it down and knowing how to read the whole thing would make it much easier.

>which parameters should I use for Miku? not the default parameter settings that you can find i.e. which numbers to use, but rather out of all of the parameters available to use, I just need to understand which parameters to mess with for best results.
http://vocaloid.wikia.com/wiki/Using_the_Parameters#Parameters_from_VOCALOID2_and_onwards

---how do I adjust the pronunciations for phonemes?
I've never used Piapro but if it's similar to the Vocaloid Editor you just right click a note and select "Note Property"

Also I'd recommend getting the midi on the right notes before exporting next time. I know why you didn't, but it speeds up the process a bit.

Nice url.

I love personally speaking with vocaloid producers via email or twitter. They're always so cute and humble, and 90% of the time, they're more than willing to give away their music for free.

Based Japan.

>>14263297

What are you current favorite artists/producers?

Mine are Phasma, NOEL-KIT, Go-Qualia, Camellia, QUADROPHENIA (more a label than an individual producer), Nekomata 猫叉 Master, Leggysalad and Kiichi.

>>14263297
I only hope that Jharbort's channel takes a nuking. Him being the Vocaloid equivalent of CWC and watching sperging out on a regular basis is one of the few things left in Vocaloid I enjoy.

id be surprised if that happened since im pretty sure he gets permission from the producers to upload to his channel

other than those two, i'm still a fan of clean tears. he puts out consistently solid music.

>>14271271
>camellia
would i be wrong to believe he's one of the greatest producers in all of vocaloid? can anyone disagree? there isn't a single weak track in his discography and the way his style has drastically evolved in such a short period of time is sort of staggering. he's also quite young, 23 last time i checked, and even as a young person shows a great deal of talent at making music. i too wish he'd continue produce vocaloid music because i'm in love with vocaloid and that is my bias, but ultimately what he chooses to make is entirely up to him. maybe he can't help but change his style. the only thing i can say for certain is the next thing he releases may not be what you'd expect.

my personal favorite is Trippers, as it was the album that made me realize i was listening to the work of someone quite special.

>>14269963
We don't know yet anon. Some people theorized that the blocks are just shows of good faith for the content producers like Warner music japan official. Maybe once they sign onto youtube red and does the shitty deal with Google, everything will be okay again. Things seem the case at least with anime songs being copyrighted in the past.

I might be a bit late to the party on this, but I just got my copy of Project Mirai DX last week and holy shit the game is great. I'm already friends with Len, Rin and Miku and have a perfect on most songs on easy mode, trying to go for normal mode next.

I love how you can switch the vocals on most of the tracks, a lot of the alternate voices have become my default ones for the songs (Len on Snowman, Rin on Animal Fortune-telling, Luka on Romeo and Cinderella...)

What did you think of the game, for those of you who got it? Do you use button mode or tap mode? What are your favorite songs in the game?

Just found out that my favourite ゆかり tuner uploaded a new EGOIST cover.

IDK, these copyright issues or whatever they are seem to be happening more frequently nowadays. I think it would be better for the people who used youtube for this to find a definitive alternative instead of waiting around for a solution which probably will not come. Google doesn't care and I doubt the content producers all the way over in Japan care either.

Does anyone know if Asami Shimoda is fluent in English? Luka's VA speaks it pretty well iirc, and Luka's English has always been miles ahead of Miku's, so maybe that could be an indicator.

>>14297747
DESU I'm not getting my hopes up either, they've got their hands full since Rin and Len are two complete voice banks with three appends each already, plus they're also working on Miku at the same time. I'd be surprised if their English is anything more than acceptable at best.

>>14303655
Sometimes there's a tag in the title with feat鏡音リン/whoever it is but not always.
You can try looking up the albums/songs on databases.

>>14303655
If you're listening on NND or Youtube, there's usually a Kagamine Rin tag or an equivalent. If you're downloading music, you pretty much have to know the song itself or the vocaloids that the song/album's producers usually use if you want to know.

This album is seriously so good.

There should only be albums of this type on the essential list. High quality, cohesive and flowing with talent.

Stuff like Dual Sight and Mekaku City Records don't belong there imo. They just can't compare in quality. There isn't a single stand out song on either album, whereas every track on pic related is top quality.

>>14307527
that's the problem when making essiential lists for things that are subjective. Example: I feel the same way about the album homeland as you do about 39+1, I can listen to homeland start to finish over and over whereas i only like 3 songs on the 40mp album.

I don't agree with every choice in there either. It's even missing a few big producers with 1M+ views songs like Otetsu, Nem and Hitoshizuku-P. There are producers which appear more than once. Last Note has a strictly better album than First Trip out, and I disagree with the choices for Pinocchio-P, Wonderful Opportunity and Clean Tears.

Anyway, the list can't be perfect, but I don't think it's that bad either. It could use some work, but updating it is a pain since you just won't be able to settle on a few albums that everyone agrees should be there.

Oh, and takamatt as well. Miracle Child is nice but East End Pandemonium is just so much better.

Susceptibility[edit]

Japanese tourists in Paris.
Japanese visitors are observed to be especially susceptible.[2][3] It was first noted in Nervure, the French journal of psychiatry in 2004.[4] From the estimated six million yearly visitors, the number of reported cases is not significant: according to an administrator at the Japanese embassy in France, around twenty Japanese tourists a year are affected by the syndrome.[5] The susceptibility of Japanese people may be linked to the popularity of Paris in Japanese culture, notably the idealized image of Paris prevalent in Japanese advertising.
Mario Renoux, the president of the Franco-Japanese Medical Association, states in Libération': "Des Japonais entre mal du pays et mal de Paris" ("The Japanese are caught between homesickness and Paris sickness", December 13, 2004) that [Japanese] magazines are primarily responsible for creating this syndrome. Renoux indicates that Japanese media, magazines in particular, often depict Paris as a place where most people on the street look like stick-thin models and most women dress in high fashion brands such as Louis Vuitton,[6] while in reality French high-fashion brands are mainly for foreign consumers, and the French population are far more overweight than the Japanese population.
There is a 24-hour help line run by the Japanese embassy to help Japanese tourists suffering from this condition. The embassy reports that on average twelve people suffer from this disorder annually.[7]

I'd back these changes. I don't even like hard rock, but where is the otetsu album? Also should put in man_boo's hoshi no daichi imo. There's a lack of voca jazz in general on that list for something that is supposed to be comprehensive.

>>14308913
And toa's album, I know hasn't been out that long, but I think it's better than quite a few of the albums on that list as well as being very agreeable to people of various genre preferances.

>>14307527

Let me know how you felt about it. I'm working my way down the essential list.

2/22 so far have been perfect, that and pic related. I've listened and re-listened to some very good albums, but on these two I feel every song is worthy of being a single.

Feels nice since before this my only perfect albums were from Rin and none of them are on the list.

>>14311553
The original is long gone.

>>14312068
Finished it. Not sure about technical terms, but the voice tuning was amazing, on par with mitchie M.
As for the actual music, it's not my thing, prefer more fast-paced tracks. I can see why you like it though. Scrap and build was the best track tee bee haych.

I think of an example of a not-so-well tuned album that was good because of the music would be wowaka's unhappy refrain, but you've probably heard that already.

>>14312660
>not-so-well tuned album that was good because of the music
Neru's Sekai Seifuku as well. Overall it wasn't that bad, although a few songs were worse (Re-education for example), but the music is just amazing. His tuning did improve a lot though and I actually like it on his newest stuff.

Gumi V4 demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mj_HqOogsSY

Sounds great. I'm almost as hyped for Gumi V4 as I am about Rin and Len V4. Release date when?

Has anyone heard the song "Goodbye"? It's in English, which makes it a great introduction to Miku for the uninitiated.

Also, has anyone ever heard of like a fusion of EDM with Miku? Seems like they would work really well together.

>>14314619
If you put a bit effort you can get some decent sounding shit out of Miku English. The only reason people think she is awful is because talentless hacks like to use it as a crutch when they inevitably realize they suck and need an excuse.

>>14314434
Camellia, Soh Yoshioka are probably the most re-known Electro House/Wubwub Producers in Vocaloid. You also have a load of Trance and Prog. House Producers like HSP, Clean Tears, Bernis and Aerial Flow if that is also your scene.

>>14315481
I'm pretty sure the demos aren't really tuned. Gumi can sound quite powerful in the right hands and I don't think the V4 will change that:

asami shimoda can't english but it's still better than miku's english. There's something about saki fujita that is incompatible with english. I would predict it to be worse than luka but better than miku.

Also rin len v4 demo was released a few days ago but I didn't get the chance to post. Did we discuss it here? If not, can we.

Are there any import services that would go to vomas for a reasonable price? Nekobolo is making a new album for the next vomas. But I guess he's always put his albums up on Toranoana anyway.

>>14264051
I love whoo's music a bunch. It'd be amazing if he made another new album sometime. Pretty much everyone who is in that s10rw circle makes the sorta music I love though.

Working my way through the essential list and the Unhappy Refrain album is my favourite so far.
That is all.

Well, since it's a single cd, preferably not over $50. I know that there are services that go to events for you if you pay for their accommodation and travel expenses etc which is why I was wondering if there are any like Doujincore who are already planning on going to the event.

I'm guessing it'll just be cheaper waiting for him to put it on Toranoana though, right? Unless I'm looking in the wrong places I'm not seeing any Vocaloid-version Doujincore.

Now that Taggleburr doesn't go to vomas anymore, how do you cool dudes get your vomas uploads?

>>14323257
>Shiina Mota

I didn't know he released another album besides Ikiru this year. I'll give it a listen.

>>14323840
most places want 200$ to just step foot at your event not counting your purchase cost and mail expenses.

>I'm guessing it'll just be cheaper waiting for him to put it on Toranoana though, right?

Nekobolo stuff isnt that hard to find after events so maybe hope he puts it onto an online shop or check rakuten/suruga-ya /auctions and see if it pops up

I thought the demo was great. A definite improvement over the appends, at least. Rin sounds much more fluid and less squeaky, and although there wasn't that much Len in the demo I thought he also sounded much nicer.

Most of my vocaloid collection is from kz.

Do I have shit / pleb taste? Be honest?

>>14335855
Whats this year's like? Compared to previous years?

>>14335992
absolutely based taste desu senpai, kz makes some great energetic music

>>14335992
He's one of the most popular producers but I still like his stuff. Mostly his old stuff though. I'm a huge fan of Packaged and Last Night Good Night.

>>14335998
Don't they just repeat the same songs every year except maybe add 2-3 new ones?

>>14335998
The screenshot describes most of it. Official outfit, dark background. The camera work left a lot to be desired. There was a ton of lighting action off to the sides that was rarely captured.

>>14335992
His stuff is good, but thats most of your library, you are missing out on a lot.

>>14335992
good starting point but if you haven't bothered to explore past kz then yes, you're a pleb

>>14336008
There were more than 3 new ones this time. The 3 Rin and Len songs were new (and great songs, considering how lackluster the ones from previous years were, sans Tokyo Teddy Bear), there were some new Miku ones that were very good as well. Plus AiDee.

>>14341706
I live in Missouri and am debating on either roadtripping the Dallas one (since I have family there I wouldn't have to worry about a hotel) or waiting on the off chance that the last city they unveil will be KC, STL, or at the very least Chicago. At the same time I don't want tickets for the Dallas showing to sell out before they reveal the last city. Also ACEN is happening a week after the Dallas concert.

How do I import csv information from VocaDB into EAC? Trying to burn some of my vocaloid cds and I'm getting stuck. Do I have to manually edit the title of every track?

Never been to a Miku concert before, how much are tickets usually? Thinking about attending the New York one if it isn't too bad.

>>14345612
if you specifically want vocadb info on your tracks then you're probably gonna have to do it manually. If the cd you want has info in gracenote you can pull that info to EAC by doing the following steps:

download : http://www.vuplayer.com/player.php

1) start program
2) insert cd into pc
3) click file > gracenote > retrieve disc info
4) click file > export info > cdplayer.ini
5) start EAC

EAC should now have your tracks populated with gracenote info

>>14345612
Kind of silly, but you could download the lowest quality version available online and copy the tags over.

>>14346047
There are several reasons why Europe keeps getting ignored. First let's look at the past, from what I understand, the opera THE END didn't do so well in Europe, iirc most of the people who showed up were people who flew from Japan and not native european fans. On the other hand when CFM held a concert screening in LA in 2011, the movie theater was sold out, and many native fans showed up. Thus, it was shown that there was big interest for Miku to go to LA (and eventually the rest of the US)

Second, I've never really seen Europe actually buy Miku merch (or rather a large amount of it). I'm sure CFM is choosing concert locations based on Mikubook statistics and sales from Good Smile Company. Why tour in an area where people don't have a Miku money pit? It's common business sense. Other than France being interested in Japanese culture (and even then look at ALYS the wannabe vocaloid failure), is there a concentrated section of Europe where there are Asian districts/japan towns? No, not at all. So now we're on to strike 2.

And finally, there's no notable producers in Europe. In the US we have Utata in LA and arguably Circus, whether you like him or not, the fandom knows about him along with Crusher and a few others . Along with Porter Robinson, there is arguable a (very) small vocaloid scene in the US. Europe? Name a notable producer who's made original songs (aka not cover artists like Laura). Final nail in the coffin for Europe.

tl;dr There's no active Vocaloid scene in Europe, hence no concerts. It's just not worth sinking money into touring.

>>14346676
Isn't Cillia and Orangestar from the US?

>>14346862
Yes, they are from the U.S. as well. (I can't believe I forgot to put them first oh well)
This further adds to my point that Europe has nobody.

>>14345612
I use MP3Tag after EAC. Download the .csv from VocaDB, select all tracks on MP3Tag, choose Convert -> Text File to tag

format string: %title%;%dummy%;%artist%;%album%;%discnumber%;%track% for example.

%dummy%;%title%;%artist%;%album%;%discnumber%;%track% alternative.

>>14346676
Oh well. Guess I might as well just kill myself then.

>>14347474
Save up, take a friend or two and travel. You can go to the concert and do some sightseeing as well.
