[TsukiyomiUtauHoshina]

Wow, your really good with a computer. I'd love to hear you with an actual voice system that doesn't freak out when you get loud like computers do.

I'd bet you sound really good. Keep it up.

[NaminesNobody]

O.O Oh, my, God, you are amazing! I've heard people sing this song 20 different ways, but they are all "Mayotter dake ja garakuta ni naru" (in short, a form of trash) compared to you!

SUGOI!!!!!

[InoStarr]

...hmm, well, obviously, you rendered your voice, but personally, it sounds similiar, but only slightly, but try it without rendering it? will it sound better? i wanna know! :D wait...you rendered it, righht?!

[r3animat3dbeat]

i added harmonizing vocals, obviously.. & i mustve done some overdubbing as well coz during that time i was curious to find out how itd sound like on headphones =p by the time i was gonna remove the overdubs(bout 2 xtra tracks) i felt exhausted from experimenting & just exported from audacity

[gerfu7]

[TsukiShia]

I love this song. I think it sounds better than the original cuz it never gets annoying.

[randomimbecile]

I like it, not quite the powerful voice that Nana has (can you believe such a petite person can be so powerful in her voice) but your version is nice. ^^

[Nekochan56]

O_O

~points to the song title of this video~

erm....it's...something...with black...and diamond...xD

in the song title...ehem...

~puts neon signs by the title saying "THIS SONG!!!!"~

[r3animat3dbeat]

ah damn i was so off XD O.o can't wait! it'll sound beautiful with your vibratos ~r u goin for the Major or Indies version?

[Nekochan56]

xD I asked me friend...he told me not to put AS MANY vibratos..but not too little either @_@

oi...Major i guess xD I dunno. Found the karaoke of this one first!

[r3animat3dbeat]

that's also smth u hav to judge for yourself, the vibratos...sometimes less is more XD

(i know u wouldn't, but just don't do them with every single syllable~i think..that's what ur friend meant lol) well either version sounds great~ Major sounds more mysterious

[Nekochan56]

so true @_@ I hate how this is sounding......

I can't....record right...uwaaah...

i like major more xD

Indies...ehhh ehh... @_@

[r3animat3dbeat]

haha this blackdiamond page has become a chat forum..ganbatte!close ur eyes..feel the rhythm~ of the music!

Indies hurts my ears at certain points ~since I like to hav it rather loud when I'm recording

[TsukiShia]

What audio program do you use to edit and record your songs?

[r3animat3dbeat]

♥ Audacity 1.3 (Beta)

[TsukiShia]

Oki, thanks!

[r3animat3dbeat]

np!~

[TsukiShia]

Sounds so good! Thnx, u made my day. :3

[r3animat3dbeat]

and you made my day too ~ ^o^♫

[deniciawong]

omg. you are good (:

[drenkeeg]

what episode is 1:31 ?

[r3animat3dbeat]

ep 18^^

[blackdiamond559]

just a question, why did you call it blakdiamond?

[r3animat3dbeat]

i don't know, that's what the producers,lyricist or smth the original artist came up with @.@

BLACK DIAMOND, in capital letters XD

[pokegirl21]

i think the song is called black diamond because when die had an X on her, the diamond that was on her hair turned black

[r3animat3dbeat]

Dia's so cute lol,, but i think the song might be to portray Utau's (ex-)dark side instead, or you could be right, the tainted personality of an X-character

[starlenia]

beautiful! the whole video is great! try using a karaoke version! you have an amazing voice! its amazing!!!!!!!^.^

[r3animat3dbeat]

glad u appreciate it!it did take me a while doing the 'lip-syncing' stuff afterall~thank you!!

btw i did use a karaoke version(320kbps), which becomes 128kbps after exported using Audacity, & further downgraded by YouTube XD so i recommend the link i posted

[starlenia]

seriously?! you didnt use karaoke! wow! then your amazing! suce great harmony with only yourself!!!

[r3animat3dbeat]

i used the instrumental track and then added some of my own background vocals

[HayoChan]

Which program do you use??

[r3animat3dbeat]

Audacity, officially my FAV software =)

I suggest you should use the stable version instead of the Beta ver. 'coz parts of the audio goes missing sometimes

[Nekochan56]

hmm...what IS the stable version? xD I must intervene and ask..

[r3animat3dbeat]

lol, np ..i believe the stable version(1.2.6?) has been fully documented so that it contains less bugs which messes up the recordings..but there's also the latest Beta Version which comes with more features for trackediting^^...for me, it crashes pretty often!

[Nekochan56]

AHHHHH !!! YAY YAY YAY!!!!! OMG o.o..

your voice sounds soooo good with this!

(not that it doesn't with other songs)

OMg....I think...

>.>

this calls for a fav...

[r3animat3dbeat]

ya~ta! arigatou-ne? ^^that means so much...

i enjoyed singing this song!& the violin sounds great. How do I put it..it's like trying out a different style...and i'm relieved to hav finished making this vid~ at long last....

[Nekochan56]

ahhh yeah i was so shocked to hear this kind of song! then i heard your voice with it and I'm like "IT WORKS!"

omg...amazing!

[HayoChan]

REALLY GOOD!

[1800webkinz]

Wait, who is singing this...? (not Utau but the other person)

[r3animat3dbeat]

=p it's me singing this. But Utau's seiyuu(voice actress: Nana Mizuki) DID sing the original version of the song (and there are TWO versions of Black Diamond, the Major, and the Indies Ver.)

did that..uh..clear things up?

[1800webkinz]

Oh, okay. Thnx. Well, I'm favoriting this!! Awesome job!!! ^_^

[r3animat3dbeat]

im happy to hear that you like it ^o^ domo arigatou!
