Joule

Joule (ジュール) is a voicebank for the UTAU software.

History

Joule's first voice bank, Joule CV, was recorded in 2017, but was only released in April, 2019.

His second voicebank, Joule CVVC, was released a little over a year later in late April, 2020.

Concept

Joule is a generally naive, reserved, and absent-minded person. He's rather emotional and impulsive, despite how shy he might come off upon first meeting him. However, he loves making new friends.

Joule is often in his own little world, usually caught either daydreaming or sleeping. Especially when he's not supposed to be. He's the type to stay up all night, typically making music and singing until morning comes. Which could explain his absent-mindedness from lack of sleep

Joule has a younger sister named Octavia

(NOTE: this is just CJ's portrayal of Joule as a character. Headcanon's are welcome!)
