How to use Uta Utane/Defoko in UTAUWe all must agree - we've tried to use the Default Child in UTAU at least once. But she never plays for us.
Uta-chan is an UTAUloid, but, unlike most UTAUs (except for Teto, Ted, Ritsu, Tei, etc.), Defoko's Voicebank is in Hiragana.
How to convert Defoko's voicebank into Romaji so that she can read most USTs (and the ones I've included in my last post about UTAU)? I'm not a big fan of doing it, but if you have the time, by all means, go ahead. You need to use an online Hiragana to Romaji converter, taking Defoko's samples one by one and converting the names. Uta-chan has more than 130 samples, though.
For us who either don't have the time or can't be bothered, here is an already converted Uta/Defoko voicebank.
Now, just open up UTAU, and open up Defoko's voicebank just like you would with Teto, or any other UTAUloid.

~Name and Personality~
As quoted from her website;
Eleanor – “light”, “bright” with a touch of nobility.
Forte – “strength” and the musical notation for loudness.
:white_small_square: The defining elements are sealing wax and the tied ribbon around her waist, inspired by the arts of letter writing. Other elements include the sealing stamp underneath the mic stand and the boots, the bow tied on her pinky finger hinting connections shared between people, and the dip-pen-styled dress design.
:white_small_square: Despite being an epitome of the latest technology, Eleanor keeps an interest in antiques. Her personality is best described as honest, endeavoring, with an unwavering sense of morality.
~Voice~
Eleanor's tempo and range and suggested genre's have not been revealed. However, she has an excellent range and she is able to sing a wide range, though she leans towards the slower tempo range.
Her voice is slightly mature with a hint of an adult tone. She is akin to a 'normal' bank, with the ability to be more powerful and more soft. She has a notable engine noise, like with the other Synthesizer V banks.
Eleanor only has 1 voicebank.
