Do you hate making usts?

I, just like you, hated making USTs at the start...The notes were alwyas off...But I kept trying and then I got just three~one notes off and finally after some time I got good at listening and figuring out the notes -w- You just need to train yourself...

If you have doubts, try using softwares like vocalistener, newtone; flstudio by itself has an option to convert scores into MIDI. It is not always 100% accurate, but it helps you a lot!

From scratch? Certainly doubt I'd finish it, especially with the lack of motivation kek.
Maybe with at least a tempo (I can't determine tempo just by hearing, excuse you), but I prefer starting off with a MIDI, just like anyone really.

I actually find making things from scratch quite fun! Since I may have a particular way of mixing or tuning in mind, I won't be obstructed by whatever someone else has done. Also, songs have repetitive parts, so I can do sections more efficiently instead of doing a single straight midi through the whole song and end up tuning the same chorus over and over.

tbh for me it's a love hate relationship bc the result is liek "ahhh finally i am proud, yes" but the tiiiiiiime for me it takes forever. I've been working on one UST for like two years almost sooo

I enjoy making UST (eventho i make a MIDI 1st before converting them to .UST) the only thing that put me to headdesk is 'harmony chorus'
It's like...."How do i know the notes they're singing? They're in chorus, and they're harmony. My ears can't understand"
I'm pretty tone deaf, but i'm sure i'll get to recognize notes better as i practice allot

There are functions in some daws (I can only speak for Mixcraft in particular, since that's my primary daw of choice) where it can determine the key of a given song - not full proof with songs that change key, but it's a start in the right direction. From there, determining pitch shouldn't be too difficult with a guide for what pitches are in that key (you'll need to know a bit of music theory, but learning the treble clef isn't hard).

Another way to make midis easier may be to utilize a voice - your own, alterego, aquestone, vocaloid, etc. Or use an instrument that's distinct (a plucked or percussion one might be best, all depends on the person).

That all said, I don't mind making midis, but my problem right now is a lack of voices for each situation - Vocaloid wise: Japanese female (soprano, alto), male (tenor/countertenor, bass), Korean male (tenor and bass), female (alto), English female (soprano, alto) male (tenor, bass - Oliver is treble). Sure, any voice can theoretically do a song meant for another part, but the point is, no one voice can do everything.

FL can convert scores to midis? WHAT? Where do I find that?
