Tips from [JellyBearTV](https://www.twitch.tv/JellyBearTV) on how to use Solaria:
6+
- Using volume knobs in synthv seems to cause the audio to clip, so turning it down below 0 db seems to help.
7+
- Use light preset on verse and solid for chorus, the presets change how shouty or quiet Solaria will be.
8+
- You can use the pencil tool to edit the pitch
9+
- Use `-` to keep the tone going on another note, this lets you glide between pitches
10+
- You can use `br` at the end of notes
11+
- Recommends not connecting `br` to the first note when used at the beginning
12+
- You can get SynthV resources from here: https://resource.dreamtonics.com/download/
13+
- Get Solaria to sing one note, turn up the breathiness, and use Charsiesis to do scream vocals.
14+
- Harmonies is important with vocal synths, so layer additional vocals at different pitches like a 5th down and pan them. It adds to the humanization element; it sounds like backing vocals.
15+
- Using SynthV with vocoding can make it sound more human

Looking up what the `br`, `-`, and `+` symbols are called in Synthesizer V. I found this in the official manual:
6+
7+
> https://synthesizerv.com/manual/entering_lyrics.htm
8+
>
9+
> **Syllable Break**
10+
> Use plus sign to break down a multi-syllable word. In this example, the first note says "birth" and the following says "day".
11+
>
12+
> **Legato**
13+
> Use minus sign to mark the continuation of the last sung vowel.
14+
15+
This in an unofficial manual:
16+
17+
> https://manual.synthv.info/quickstart/entering-lyrics/#adding-breaths
18+
>
19+
> Breath notes can be added by entering `br` as the note's lyric (AI singers only).
20+
21+
I also found these symbols on Dreamtonic's website under a section titled "Synthesizer V Studio
22+
Phoneme Reference": https://dreamtonics.com/svstudio-resources/
23+
24+
Looks like people interchangeably use the terms "note" and "phoneme" for it, but I'll stick with "phoneme" since that's what the reference is called.

While looking for a list of phonemes in SynthV, I found out about glottal stops from an unofficial manual:
6+
7+
> https://manual.synthv.info/quickstart/entering-lyrics/#adding-glottal-stops
8+
>
9+
> Glottal stops can be added between notes by prefixing the following lyric with a single quote (`'`). A note containing just a single quote can be used to add a glottal stop at the end of a phrase.
10+
>
11+
> \[...\]
12+
>
13+
> While a "glottal stop" is, strictly speaking, the sudden termination of airflow (and the resulting sound), the same symbol can be used in Synthesizer V Studio to create hard onsets, by using the single quote (`'`) notation at the start of a phrase.
14+
15+
However, the [Synthesizer V Studio Phoneme Reference](https://dreamtonics.com/svstudio-resources/) lists the glottal stop as using the phoneme `cl`.
