Romaji to kana plugin

[Rai]

Repost from the old forum;

This is a wonderful plugin found by tady159 that allows for romaji -> kana conversion of usts. Keeping in mind there is already a Converter for this purpose, in some cases it has failed to work and so this is another method.

Original plugin link: http://ux.getuploader.com/yuuboku/download/7/romantokana_2009092601.zip
Look below for a modified version.

Tady and I have managed to easily reverse engineer it to work for both romaji -> kana and kana -> romaji as two seperate plugins. If anyone is unable to figure out how to do so just ask and a tutorial will be put here.

Edit: I uploaded a version of it with the files edited like tady posted so that you only need to use one plugin to switch either way.

To install it, first unpack it using winRAR or some other program. Then you go to the directory where you installed UTAU and paste the folder into the 'plugins' folder. If there isn't one just make it.

After you install it, you just select the notes you want to convert, go to Tools>Plug-Ins and choose romakanaswitch. If you want to convert the entire ust, just select all the notes (ctrl-a) and run the plugin.

Any problems or questions please ask.

Actually, I figured out that you can make both work on the SAME plugin, so you don't have to copy the files and just change the template for the inverse process. I did this to mine, and works fine.

ooh that's awesome Tady! The only situation that might have trouble in is if the ust in question has a mix of kana and roma for whatever reason and you only wanted it in one of them. Rare occurrence though.

2009...? really? I only found it on twitter some weeks ago, it was still not listed on this page, but two other plugins with same function were, and both date from this year http://www20.atwiki.jp/utaou/pages/36.html

If it was that old, I supposed it would already be on that list long ago.

I have downloaded that one too a while ago, but I didn't think there was anything much special for it (mainly cause I totally redid the table for the other one from scratch lol)

That isn't a problem since the plugin looks for a character on a list, and if the character can't be found in the corresponding list, then it ignores the character and moves on. So rather than inverting the characters, you'll end up with a UST entirely in kana/roma.

How do you use it anyways?

Thanks that's just what I needed.  Some songs were in romaji can I couldn't read the symbols to find why Miss Kitty couldn't sing one of words.  So now I can use it to set the song to kana so I can find out what she missing.

Hi
A few months ago, I edited the list of characters in the list, so that when the converter was used, it could do VCV as well.I also renamed it in UTAU with an english name, "Romaji -> <- Hiragana".

Folder Link

So I'm going to put the files on here, in this post. Just click the link.
The files are put in the kanatoroma folder, now press reload when you open the plugins in UTAU.
