FelineWasteland submitted a new resource:

How to Create Base OTOs (Part 1) - Comprehensive guide on creating base otos. This section covers creating them from scratch.

A comprehensive guide on writing base configuration files (otos) for Classic UTAU and OpenUTAU. Also applicable to DIY synths that use the same configuration parameters. This resource assumes at least a basic knowledge of UTAU.

This tutorial is crossposted from my website. Part 2 covers making bases from finished voicebanks and Part 3 covers making bases using regular expressions.

FYI another way you can create stringed base otos is by duplicating the oto as many times as you need and then opening it in UTAU, which reorganizes the oto.

I'm not sure what you mean by that. As in, I'm not sure how that's different than what's described here beyond the step of having UTAU organize the strings alphabetically.

If you mean creating different aliases and entering their base parameters inside of UTAU's native oto editor, and then duplicating those in a text editor, then yes that's also possible, though more tedious than just doing the whole thing in the text editor, and requires there to be at least one .wav file of a voicebank already in existence to work off of.
