JP Reclists | Wasteland UTAU

All reclists are compatible with OREMO.

All base otos are compatible with setParam, and are based on recording at 120 BPM using my guideBGMs.

Using other guideBGMs or just a metronome may require changing the offset parameter; assuming each mora is held for one beat, they will be 500ms apart.
Changes in BPM will require adjustment of almost all values. At 100 BPM, mora will be 600ms apart, at 150 BPM, mora will be 400ms apart, etc.

Make sure to encode any kana files in Shift-JIS so that UTAU and OREMO can read them properly!

These are indicative of how I write reclists. If you're using a list made by someone other than me, it may be handled differently in some ways.

[_] in the middle of a string represents a single beat of silence between syllables.
[-] in the middle of a string represents no pause between syllables and is just there for readability.
['] in between vowels represents a glottal stop.
[_][___][+__][C__] etc. at the beginning of a string is just there for organizational purposes.

For non-standardized kana / romanization, I followed common conventions or else used what felt logical.

The syllabic nasal [ん] is represented with [N] in some VCV and CVVC lists (but not their aliases) to indicate its varied pronunciation.
Syllabic nasals in vowel strings are marked as [ん・ン・ン2] or [n, ng, m].
[ng] as a CV may use the <k> hiragana set with handakuten, e.g. [か゚], but this is more difficult to type so instead I use the <g> katakana set, like [ガ].
[th] as in <thing> and [dh] as in <this> use the <s> and <z> katakana sets, e.g. [サ・ザ]. [dhi] and [zhi] are differentiated as [ジ・ジィ].
Other reclists may use [rr] to represent an English <r> instead of a trilled <r>. I include both by having English <r> be written as [wr], which follows English orthography and alludes to its manner of articulation.
There is not a good way to differentiate between the four liquids [r, l, rr, wr] in kana, so I put a [2] after the less commonly used phonemes, e.g. [ら・ラ・ら2・ラ2].
[を] is treated as if it is pronounced as [うぉ] rather than [お].
