Hello! Notloid-P here with his NIAONiao posts, as usual. This time, I'll show you how to convert vsqx, ust, and others to .nn, the NIAONiao project format.
There are several reasons, such as that it removes the tuning from the files, and that it only accepts .VSQX files from VOCALOID3, which aren't the most common (and, like UTAU files, it removes the tuning).
For this tutorial, we'll need libreSVIP, a free program inspired by UTAU Formatix, available on the web, Mac, Linux, Windows, and Android. It has an absurd number of files to convert, so you won't have any problems.
To download it, (the link is clicking the "go to download" button) go to Releases and choose the device you have (e.g., I have a Windows computer with a 64-bit architecture, so I'll choose the "LibreSVIP-1.10.1.win-arm64.7z" file). Then, installing it is simply a matter of unzipping it and opening the "libresvip-gui.exe" file.
Then, the program is very intuitive. Just drop the UST/Other files into the program, it will detect them, and in "target format" you should enter "NIAONiao (.nn)".
And that's it! When you open NIAONiao, you'll have a tuned .nn file ready to use!
