Peiton (ペイトン (ぺいとん)) is a voicebank for the UTAU program.
History
2011
On September 13, 2011, Peiton's first voicebank under the alias "PEYLOID" was recorded and just barely configured. It used the CV method with only the phonemes presented on Wikipedia's Hiragana Chart. All covers using this voicebank since then have been taken down, which means that there is no online record of this voicebank's sound.
2013-2016
The first official release for PEYLOID was his ACT 3 voicebank on October 23, 2013.The creation of several English voicebank prototypes using PaintedCz's CVVC English reclist had begun as well.
In mid-2014, PEYLOID was rebranded as Peiton Emujia for his ACT 4 release. This also began the recording of several English and Japanese appended voices that never actually came to fruition. The only voicebanks released out of that mess were "Peiton Emujia English Dark" and "Peiton Emujia Falsetto." Note that both of these voicebanks have since then been discontiuned.
In 2016 on Peiton's 5th anniversary, a monopitch CVVC Japanese voicebank was released.
2017
Production began on a "VCV" styled English voicebank. It is described as CVVC with VCV strings for all the basic consonant sounds. It is very basic and primitive, but only served as a proof of concept for future voicebanks. It was released near Peiton's 7th anniversary in 2018. The idea of VCV English has since then been dropped by Peiton's developer, but this voicebank is still available on the official website.
2018
Peiton's most recent release was his new Good Vibes voicebank, which is a multipitch custom CVVC English voicebank with tons of extras.This voicebank released on December 31, 2018 and has been getting steady updates ever since.
2019
As of 2019, his official surname, "Emujia," has been dropped from all future voicebank releases and updates. His surname is still allowed usage, but it won't be a part of potential official merchandise or promotional material.
Peiton's "Good Vibes" voicebank has since then received 3 major updates as well as an appended "soft" voice. A Japanese counterpart to "Good Vibes" titled "Bubble Tea" is still in development and is intended to release on his 8th anniversary on September 13, 2019.
Production for an English voicebank on the voice synthesizer, DeepVocal, has already begun.
Concept
He is a snow white Siberian Husky.
Peiton is an adult that doesn't really feel like an adult. He has a soft side and enjoys being with friends who care about him. He has a few mental problems and likes to drown them all in false hope, but he turns to close friends when he encounters issues that he cannot ignore. A notable friend who helps him through bouts of depression is Pinku.
His top-hat is high-tech and is arguably sentient. Its name is Billy.
Likes: Anything edible, cold weather, cuddling, the internet, randomly breaking into song, body hair, men.
Dislikes: Privacy Invasion, Paranormal stuff, Waking up early, a lot of people.
