Trying Out a Cute Voice on the Social VR Platform Resonite

I have been hooked on the social VR platform Resonite, which was released in October 2023. While my appearance has become cute thanks to my avatar, my voice is still the same, so I tried using a real-time voice changer.

It turned out like this.

System Configuration

The VR device is a Meta Quest 3. The process involves taking the audio input from the HMD microphone, applying a real-time voice changer, and then routing it into OBS via a virtual audio device. Here is the software I am using:

1. Meta Quest 3 (The HMD used this time)
2. Krisp (Noise canceler)
3. VC Client (Client for various real-time voice changers)
4. VB-Cable (Virtual audio device)
5. OBS (Recording and streaming application)

Krisp in step 2 is not necessary if you just want a cute voice, but since the PC fan makes a constant "whooshing" noise, I have included noise cancellation (although it hasn't been completely canceled...).

Audio Input/Output Settings

For future reference, I will record the settings I used.

Krisp

Input: Specify the microphone input. Here, the HMD's audio input device is selected.
Output: Specify an appropriate device such as speakers (any device might work here).

VC Client

The configuration area is the "AUDIO" section at the bottom left of the screen.

Input: Specify Krisp. If you are not using Krisp, specify the microphone input here.
Output: Specify the input to the virtual audio device. Please ensure VB-Cable is installed beforehand.

For the RVC model, I am using the "RVC Female Voice Data 'Yuu'". For information regarding those settings, please refer to the VC Client documentation.

OBS

In OBS, you can input the voice processed through the voice changer by specifying the virtual audio device as the microphone input as follows:

Meta Quest 3

Furthermore, if you want to use the transformed voice within VR, specify the same virtual audio device used in OBS as the audio input device as follows:

Conclusion

So, I was able to successfully make my voice cute as well. It feels like my VR life is going to be even more enjoyable. Resonite is a lot of fun, so please come and visit, everyone~~~.
