Which platform are you most active when showcasing your utau/or using utau related things in general, and why?

Mostly SoundCloud.

On YouTube you either get dumb and rude comments or no attention whatsoever. Most comments be like "You should tune more like...".

NND is a japanese site, and well, most of them don't like western users, plus I think the western utau fandom has a bad reputation in japan.

Soundcloud.

I used to use YouTube for everything but I took everything down when I went on an UTAU break and when I came back I already used Soundcloud a lot to listen to music so I thought that I would upload there. Plus, I got sick of having to explain that -ERROR was originally sung by Lily(I used to put in my description something like Original:niki(sang by Lily)) and not Ritsu because quite a few people kept commenting that...

I plan to use YouTube again soon but i'm waiting till I finish my new VBs so I can upload some original demo songs for them.

I might use NND sometime in the future but i'm waiting until my Japanese is better so for now Soundcloud is where I upload most stuff.

Since I care more for video edition, YouTube. It's hard to get attention but I don't really care for it so I'm ok with that.

Soundcloud is ok but I like my covers to have a pretty video... So yeah. I use it for WIPs and covers that I know will have to wait until I can make a video for them. Also for UTAU's demos.

Used NND twice and didn't have a bad response from people there, but I found uploading tedious and I got bored eventually :orly: I think it got better through the years tho

I haven't really done a lot of UTAU stuff in a while, wow... I guess I'll talk about the main websites I use for vocalsynth audio things in general.

Clypit - Uploading wips of all kinds, to share with people. I deliberately keep this as a dumping ground, and I'm actually kind of disappointed that it's starting to become a little more social. I've started adding to every upload description "I don't accept clyp followers" and yet people keep trying to follow me... I do hope this website stays creator oriented, though.

Soundcloud - Easiest place to upload things without having to put a lot of effort into the visual. I don't care for the community, and I was actually prepared if soundcloud died (had my files backed up and everything). Occasionally I might search for new music here, but mainly I do that on...

YouTube - I spend so much time here. Lately, I really love being able to find new producers and leave positive comments on their work. I think the advantage of being in a niche like vocalsynth is that individual comments have more impact. I've also got Youtube connected to Twitter so it's easy to share things.

DynamiVox is working on a vocalsynth-specific platform, though!

When I'm actually making content, I usually use SoundCloud. YouTube is nice, but I just can't be bothered to make videos anymore. It's so much easier to just upload the song itself and call it a day.

Bilibili and Youtube

Bilibili is just like niconico, but I have a lot of good friends on Bilibili that using UTAU. And comparing with niconico, Bilibili have less limits on video size or quantities, so I can upload all of my videos and they're gonna be HD
I've also met many friends on Youtube, Youtube is friendly to uploaders (Except Content ID) and has a lot of useful features.
So I mainly upload my video on Bilibili and Youtube.

Sometimes I upload some videos on niconico, but it seems like few people are interested in them.
Maybe I'll try Soundcloud in the future

I don't use UTAU, but am an utaite. I use mostly smule as it's not only Japan-related, so I can do what I want

I only use SoundCloud, Weebly, and the UTAU Wiki 2.0. I have no other accounts anywhere else. I'd like to try YouTube and/or Clyp, but that's about it. As for why, it's because I need permission to create accounts and I'm usually not allowed to.
For the future, I thought about trying to replicate a Tumblr ask blog using another site. It would be nice for my UTAU to have one, and I'd probably be more active there than on SC.

Thread starter
Youtube: I started here and I'm still reluctant to completely stop posting videos. I always like some form of visual to go with my videos. If not for the constant "your video is blocked in certain countries" or "this video contains copyrighted material", I would still fully enjoy posting on youtube. Plus I'm kinda sensitive so seeing dislikes anoys me (well, dislikes annoy me in general because if I don't like something, then I ignore it and move on :/)

Soundcloud: I use soundcloud for WIP and to repost from others. I don't really care for soundcloud when uploading because the bots and the limit of time you for uploads. I don't really receive any response on their, so its pretty redundant for me to post WIP without any beneficial feedbacks. The tagging system sucks in my opinion. And the bots. I can't stand the bots.

NND: I'm surprisingly doing well on NND than I am on YT and SC. My uploads have been ending up in UTAU/VOCALOID rankings, recieving ads, and comments. I'm more active on it than I have been in the past, and I'm finally understanding the tagging system.


So in summury I choose NND over Youtube and Youtube over Soundcloud

I usually use Soundcloud in most of my covers since I find more users there (even though there's in YT too) I rarely use Youtube to upload stuff on though because, I'm just lazy in making a video which appeals people. Last time I posted a video, It got a dislike right away and there were only 2 likes so yeah. I usually upload my WIPs or Audio Mix Tests in Clyp since I dont have much followers lmao xD As for NND, I haven't tried it though. And I probably wont cause I'd have to translate them into japanese...
