ン in Delta's reclist?

[JamesOvO]

I'm making a CVVC Japanese voicebank

The reclist has a ン, I don't know how to say this

Does anyone have an idea how to say this?

Maybe its a nasal "ん" like in "sing" or "king"?

The character ン is the katakana equivalent of ん. It might be used for a variant pronunciation, but do take note that there are actually 4 variants total in Japanese. The sound of ん fully depends on whatever comes after it.

m - before b, p, and m
ŋ (the "ng" sound) - before k and g
n - before j, t, ch, ts, d, dz, n, and r
ɴ ("ng" but at the very back of your throat) - all other consonants and everywhere else (such as at the end of words)

The instructions for the Ritsu EVE reclist ( which DELTA CVVC is meant to be compatible with the system of ) describe the "ン" in that system as being "more like a vowel" compared to "ん", which I think is an apt descriptor. To my understanding, most Japanese users seem to pronounce it like "ng", but not completely closing the nasal cavity like with "ng", making it kind of like a nasal vowel. Of course, there are the other three ways it's articulated, as Kiyoteru mentions, but in my experience, that's how Japanese users tend to pronounce "ン" in most voicebanks.
