Examples of work

Minimum turnaround time: 2 weeks (please note that I may be able to deliver earlier, but it may involve an extra fee).
Price and details listed here are based on an approximately 4-minute song with one primary vocal line. Adjustments will be made based on the actual scope of the project.
This is for lyric input, phoneme adjustment, and vocal tuning for VOCALOID or UTAU vocals for an original song. Please note that this is for originals only, and I will not be taking commissions for cover tuning -- the client must either be the creator of the song, or working on their behalf (please provide proof of written permission that the creator has consented to this).
I can only use vocals I have legal access to. This means a VOCALOID vocal from my current ownership list, or a freely available UTAU (or one you provide yourself).
I primarily tune for English, Japanese, or Korean lyrics. I can also do conlangs/fictional languages provided that the conlang's phonetics are reasonably producible with the vocal in question.
- In the case of English/Japanese/Korean, the vocal used needs to natively support the language requested (e.g. I can't force English out of a vocal built for Japanese), so please keep that in mind for your request.
- Non-English languages may be subject to a discount due to their lower phonetic input overhead compared to English.
If the request falls under UTAU, the UTAU library needs to fall under one of the following configurations:
- English: VCCV or CV-VC with Cz markup
- Japanese: CV, VCV, or CVVC with romaji or hiragana markup
- Korean: VCCV or CV-VC with markup at least mostly based on Revised Romanization of Korean
Delivered material will include the VOCALOID (.mid/.vsqx/.vpr) or UTAU (.ust) file used for tuning, along with any other information to make the files operational, along with rendered .wav files.
- I usually use the V5 editor for V3-5 vocals, but I also have access to V4 and Piapro Studio and can tune in either of those if a client does not have access to V5 and would like to be able to modify the file themself. I can also export a V2-3 compatible .vsq if the client needs it.
- A discount will be applied if the client has already input lyrics or phonemes in advance.

Before commissioning, please have the following ready:

I will need a MIDI file with your melody and a copy of the lyrics you want me to input.
If your song involves a conlang, I will need a phonetics guide (IPA is preferred, but not required).

Commercial use policy

By default, I will consider the deliverables to be the intellectual property of the song's original producer (regardless of whether or not the client and producer are the same entity), and they will be free to use and build upon the sound and vocal data for future project without requesting permission or paying an extra fee, provided all other policies are followed. However, I have two stipulations on such usage:

that I receive proper named attribution/credit for my work, and
that the vocal stems and vocal data file (or any modification thereof) are not publicly redistributed in any capacity, and remain for internal use only by the producer and anyone they work with.

The service provided here is generally intended for personal projects. Commercial usage (via digital sales or monetization such as Patreon) of what I deliver is approved under the condition that revenue does not exceed $500. Therefore:

If your project is entirely non-commercial, or implicitly non- or minimal-profit (for instance, collaborative charity compilation albums, limited-print doujinshi, etc.), please email your project proposal to me at lystrialle (at) gmail.com before reserving a commission slot here. Depending on my schedule, my personal level of interest, and the scope of the request, I may be able to discount or even potentially waive the commission fee.
If you expect that revenue from your song, or a project containing your song, will exceed $500, depending on the scope of the project I may ask for an increased commission fee, so please indicate in your request what your expected revenue for your project will be.
I am capable of negotiating a royalty scheme in lieu of a one-time commission fee, in which case please email your project proposal to me at lystrialle (at) gmail.com instead of reserving a commission slot here.
If you anticipate that your project will require long-term, sustained involvement for a much larger project rather than a single one-off one, please email your project proposal to me at lystrialle (at) gmail.com instead of reserving a commission slot here.

This agreement is only between the parties. Commiss.io is the provider of technology and management of the platform and is not a party to this agreement.

This agreement takes effect when both parties agree to a project, price, and license. The project refers to the specific service to which this agreement is attached. Any and all communication and materials associated with the project are part of the project.

Upon completion of the project, the artist will submit the final assets. These will be available in a preview mode until accepted by the client. The client has 30 days to accept the final assets, request changes to the final assets, or request a cancellation of the project. If the client does not take any action for 30 days, the project will be considered "accepted" by default, and closed.

3. Payment

Payment is handled as outlined in the Terms of Service. Payment information is collected upon the initial request, and the client is charged at the start of the project.

Payment is handled as outlined in the Commiss.io Terms of Service. The client will not be charged until the artist has begun work on the project. Payment is held by Commiss.io’s payment partners until they are released as outlined in those terms.

For any project assets created specifically for the purposes of this project, the artist grants the client an exclusive, worldwide, royalty free license for all commercial use of the project assets. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the artist may continue to display any project assets as example materials, in online and offline portfolios, and to prospective clients. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the artist does not retain the right to use the completed work for commercial purposes, including selling digital or physical copies of the completed project assets.

5. Cancellation and Refunds

Either party can request a cancellation prior to the successful completion of the project by using the “Contact Staff” button on the project page. It is recommended that the parties attempt to resolve any issues between themselves prior to requesting cancellation. Upon cancellation, the obligations of the artist to complete and deliver project assets are terminated. Funds will be returned to the client minus any applicable cancellation fees.

Cancellations as a result of artist action or inaction will incur no cancellation fee. Examples include, but are not limited to: an unresponsive artist and project materials outside the agreed scope.

Cancellations through no fault of the artist will incur a cancellation fee according to the cancellation policy associated with the project listing.

Cancellations and cancellation fees are subject to the Commiss.io Dispute Resolution process outlined below.

6. Dispute Resolution

Commiss.io staff provide dispute resolution, should the need arise. Disputes may be raised during or shortly after project completion. Commiss.io will make an ultimate decision regarding the project outcome intended to mutually benefit both parties.

The parties agree to participate in and be subject to the Commiss.io dispute resolution process as outlined in the Terms of Service. A dispute may be raised within 7 days of project completion by using the “Contact Staff” button on the project page.

It is greatly recommended that the parties attempt to reach an amicable solution between themselves prior to raising a dispute, though Commiss.io staff is available to provide assistance without raising a formal dispute.

As outlined in the Terms of Service. If a dispute is raised, Commiss.io will attempt to assist the parties in reaching a solution. Failing that, Commiss.io reserves the right to make an ultimate decision regarding the project outcome, relevant refunds, and any necessary transferring of intellectual property rights or project asset licenses.

7. Miscellaneous

In the case this agreement is inconsistent with the Commiss.io Terms of Service, those terms take precedence over anything within this agreement.
