First I'd like to express respect to the author of 'UTAU' system, Mr. 飴屋／菖蒲 (Ameya/Ayame) and many predecessors who have educated me. I'd also like to send my eulogy to developer of translation software and crew of the bulletin board “UTAU@英語部”(English club@ “UTAU Gojokai”).

You fire up UTAU to make Defoko sing 'あ' to make sure things are working. But no sound comes out. There is no 'あ'. There isn't even anything slightly resembling a hiragana 'a'.
Oops! You forgot to change locale!

Changing Locale
Click here for a handy-dandy guide to changing locale for any version of Windows!
Note: If you have Windows XP, there is a chance you may be prompted for the installation disc in order to install the East Asian Languages Pack.
Mac UTAU-Synth users, rejoice, you don't have to deal with any of this. However, download The Unarchiver for Mac and use it instead of the default unzipping utility on your computer, or else you'll get mojibake voicebanks when you unzip them.
IMPORTANT!! If you change your locale AFTER downloading/installing UTAU or voicebanks, you'll need to redownload them and reinstall! Anything downloaded without Japanese locale is likely corrupted with mojibake and will not work!

FAQs
My UTAU window is displaying gibberish! Like ƒ‘¶ªßª and stuff!

This gibberish is called 'mojibake' and it means you do not have Japanese locale set!

It is your computer trying to display Japanese characters, but since you don't have these Japanese characters, it instead displays the closest equivalents to those characters that it can find.

What is locale?

Locale is a country-specific setting in your computer that allows you to use languages and text from that country. For instance, in this case, Japanese locale will allow you to properly display and use Japanese kanji/hiragana/katakana.

Why does UTAU need Japanese locale to work?

UTAU was programmed in Visual Basic, which is a rather old language that predates the now-widespread usage of Unicode. In layman's terms, Unicode is a feature of modern computing that allows for universal display of text characters from all languages on any computer.

Because UTAU is non-Unicode, when it is used on a system not prepped with Japanese locale, any Japanese characters will turn to gibberish, breaking a LOT of stuff both internally in the coding and externally in the interface.

Will changing my locale set my computer to Japanese? I can't read Japanese!

Nope! Locale just means you'll be able to use non-Unicode characters, such as Japanese. It does NOT mean your Start menu and windows will suddenly all be in Japanese text.

Locale by itself does not translate your computer interface, but it may prompt certain software to try to install in Japanese. Typically the installers or software will allow you to change back to English.

Can I use AppLocale instead?

AppLocale will allow the UTAU program to run more smoothly without needing locale. HOWEVER. If you want to use Japanese banks, you will likely require romaji filenames. You can sometimes find romaji-encoded banks for popular UTAUs like Teto or Momo, but other banks will have to be hand-converted. You may also need to convert hiragana UST files to romaji.

But I have the English version of UTAU! Why isn't my UTAU working?

Unfortunately, UTAU 4.18e (and previously, the English patch) only translates the interface to English. Since UTAU is programmed using Japanese characters, and UST & voicebanks still use Japanese characters, they'll still glitch up and cease to work.

I'm getting errors like 'bad file name or number' and 'wav??????????????' What are these?!

These are common errors you get when your UTAU isn't running with Japanese locale. It means the software has run into an issue because it can't read the Japanese characters being used. SET YOUR LOCALE!

Hello, thank you for taking the time to check out this small project I have been working on for the past few years.

A nib file is MacOS' interface file, it contains no code, only the way the program looks (buttons, forms, etc)

Because of this, I am unable to insert any new code - as much as I want to - so the program is still riddled with the same bugs we all know and love.

Why distribute this? I hope to grab Ameya's attention with the project, and continue to work on the abandoned UTAU-Synth project.

Features / Changes

• Removes Monthly License Activation

• New interface (English only)

• Updated the Note Properties dropdown (optional)

• The (previously hidden) Channels menu will allow for muting and soloing of individual tracks, without changing their volume manually

I can only assume this feature wasn't made public due to a bug. It appeared to work fine with my normal use, but please use with caution.

• The ability to open a new UST without closing the application

• GenEdit Menu functionality: the genedit dropdown is used to cut, copy and paste plain text within the app. Including note flags, project flags or even values inside the voicebank editor. Quite literally, whatever the file menu can't copy, genedit can.

• I have made an attempt to fix any visual glitches that appear in the genedit, including repainting flickering when scrolling. Unfortunately; results may vary.

• Prefixmap GUI was updated (yeah, I see the 'surffix' typo, it was there from the beginning so I thought I would leave it for kicks ¯_(ツ)_/¯)

• Changed keystrokes can be viewed here.

Troubleshooting / Common Issues

Pressing OK on the Note Property dialogue crashes the application!

Try installing the Original Note Property version. If this does not work, please contact me on Twitter, @_Hairclips

I can only see 'designable.nib' and 'keyedobjects.nib'!

This is a known issue with applications such as iZip that allow you to browse zip files without decompressing them. The top level of the zip (MainMenu.nib) is a technically a directory, applications such as these open that directory automatically. You can solve this issue using your existing software by going 'up'. If you don't know what that entails; please just locate the downloaded zip file (such as 'P01R04-C.zip'), right click it and open with > Archive Utility. This will result in a .nib you can use.

My issue is not listed here! / I need help!

Please contact me on Twitter! @_Hairclips! My DMs are open to the public.

.NIB Installation

1. Make a backup of UTAU-Synth and or your computer. I am not responsible for any damage to your computer or files as a result of a misinstallation.

2. Download all files required from me, as well as a fresh copy of UTAU-Synth if needed. If you would like a full translation, please download Localizable.strings too.

3. Unzip the file you downloaded by right clicking > Open With > Archive Utility

4. Navigate to your UTAU-Synth installation folder (e.g: /Applications/UTAU-Synth.app)

5. Right click 'UTAU-Synth.app' and select 'Show Package Contents'

6. Navigate to ./Contents/Resources/English.lproj if your system language is English or ./Contents/Resources/Japanese.lproj if your system language is Japanese. You do not need to replace the MainMenu.nib in both, but you may if you like. If you have download Localizable.strings, you need to replace the one in this directory too.
