How do you prefer UTAU appends to be organized?

[FelineWasteland]

I'm curious about other peoples thoughts on using appends. Personally, I generally prefer them all in one voicebank, given that they flow well together, because that way I can use multiple appends in the same song cover. On the downside, that leads to very large file sizes, and therefore slow downloads and sometimes slow software usage. I think a lot of people like them to be completely separate voicebanks though, so I'm just wondering what you guys think.

I prefer separate downloads for the sake of easier downloading, and the ability to choose which banks I want to use. However, once downloaded, I like for the banks to be formatted so that I can use them together as a single bank. An example of what I mean is Kasane Teto's setup.

personally, i prefer append voicebanks to be separate downloads and as separate voicebanks for the sake of organization and convenience.

I prefer them sepparate with the option of putting them together aswell. That way you can pick wichever one you want and and switch between them in the ust, so you don't have to render it several times. And you can save some space if you don't plan on using all of them.

I like voicebank appends to be together, but have the option to separately download an append. It's much more convenient that way.

I'd prefer them all in one vb.

My preference is seperate. Helps if there's a specific bank that I don't need.

Appends are ok to be together as long as appends aren't all each multipitch in that all-in-one dl file and zip file size isn't over 500 MB.

But I guess that I prefer more separate DL than all-in-one in general because then I can select those which I want to DL and don't need to DL one big file hours just for one Append.

I like if each appends has surffix like for example Kasane Teto, so I can use different Appends together in same UST/song. (To get her rikimi, use 力, for whisper 囁, for Sakebi ↑ and so on) I don't mind that are surffix in Japanese or English letters as long as them aren't hard to type from keyboard.
