EINE is an UTAU plugin that serves to allow for easy batch selecting of appends in EINE compatible voicebanks. EINE stands for EINE Is Not EVEC.

EINE can also convert lyrics to and from CV and VCV as well as to and from Hiragana and Romaji. It also allows for batch lyric definition, rest conversion and the option to edit the highlighted notes in a text editor.

With UTAU voicebanks that have appends, using them can be difficult if you want to use an append for a few specific notes as you will need to render the UST multiple times for each append you want to use or create multiple USTs. This can be quite annoying. EINE compatible voicebanks have the appends as part of the main voicebank with notation at the end of a note to identify which append to use (if any). This allows for appends to be used for specific notes much more easily, but without any sort of assistance from a plugin of some description, using appends in EINE compatible voicebanks for an entire UST or larger sections can be quite annoying.

The EINE plugin serves to solves the problem that EINE compatible voicebanks cause. Simply select the notes you want to change, run the plugin and enter the append you want to use.

A voicebank being EINE compatible simply means that it has appends and the format for said appends matches the EINE standard. No steps of making a voicebank EINE compatible involves getting in contact with Longsleve Records.

The download for the EINE plugin will also contain a copy of a plugin called "EINE Studio". EINE Studio allows you to quickly make preexisting voicebanks EINE compatible.

EINE can work with multipitch banks, but EINE studio will not support it, you will have to manually add the append yourself. Also, the append needs to be recorded in the same pitches as the core voicebank (or use the same suffixes). A guide for multipitch banks is being worked on currently.

No. EINE has multiple functions in addition to the appends and complex prefixmap functionality (which are the only parts of EINE that require an EINE compatible voicebank).

Starting from EINE 2.0 (included in package 1.7), there is functionality to allow voicebanks to growl without the use of a growl append. This is achieved through adding a vibrato with a cycle of 12. The intensity of the growl is determined by the vibrato's depth. This method, however, has a drawback: you cannot use vibrato alongside the growl as the growl is the vibrato. There are two ways to growl with vibrato however. The first one is to trace the vibrato with pitchbends and the second one is to have the growl handled by the Utaugrowl resampler. EINE has the functionality to convert between vibrato based growl and the Utaugrowl based growl on command to make this as painless as possible.
