Tempest is a discontinued UTAU developed and voiced by HitCoder
==History==
=== 2016 ===
HitCoder initially started testing voice samples in UTAU ultimately resulting in a lack of success.
===2017===
In early 2017 HitCoder released Tempest Ōkaminoto under the name Tempest Montrakami, which is now a dead name. Older voicebanks may potentially be shipped with this name, but usage of it on published works is not desired.
The voicebanks released included a CV Japanese voicebank, and an English voicebank using the CVVC method known as ARPASING.
Later in 2017 HitCoder developed several more ARPASING-based voicebanks using custom reclists, which were not publicly distributed until 2019.
===2018===
In 2018 HitCoder unveiled a CVVC Japanese voicebank, though the voicebank was already dated and had been recorded on an old microphone. The quality was lacking and the voicebank was ultimately not released, though some samples of the voicebank were released on SoundCloud and what was at the time vocalsynth.audio.
By June of 2018, HitCoder released a cover of Baloney Speaker using a newer Arpasing voicebank, though the voicebank was also not released until 2019.
===2019===
In 2019, HitCoder announced a new English reclist known as "Unising". The method was supposed to build upon current developments of UTAU English, though ultimately was further behind than initially thought. After some tests were released on SoundCloud, HitCoder made an ultimate decision to scrap what Unising once was, as it was an underdeveloped and overcomplicated CVVC format.
In May of 2019, HitCoder recorded a VCV Japanese voicebank for Tempest. The voicebank was monopitch and was ultimately better quality than any of Tempest's previous voicebanks. This voicebank also caused Tempest to grow in popularity, causing him to be used in 4 medleys, and causing a cover of the song "Grey One" to gain 5 comments, and 342 plays as of writing.
During July of 2019, HitCoder released a demo DeepVocal voicebank of Tempest, and a user known as Partialkakera posted 2 covers using his DeepVocal voicebank.
===2020===
During 2020, HitCoder has recorded a new multi-pitch CVVC Japanese voicebank for Tempest. The voicebank has been discontinued, however, and is only being distributed privately.
HitCoder also created a new ARPASING CVVC voicebank which consists of 3 pitches. This voicebank is also discontinued, and will only be distributed privately.
As of writing, HitCoder is currently developing an 8-pitch VCV Japanese voicebank for Tempest, and a 5-pitch CVVC English voicebank for Tempest. The English voicebank will consist of 8 sustain pitches. Both of these voicebanks are planned to recieve appends.
At the end of 2020 HitCoder decided to discontinue Tempest. All official links have been deleted.
==Concept==
Tempest Ōkaminoto didn't really have a concept, and characterization was formed through "casual jokes" between HitCoder and his friends.
