This is the 2022 art used in Sanoto's CV Voicebanks. You are free to use a newer or older design to represent it, if you please.
But in my personal opinion: This is so ugly.
Voicebank Type: CV Japanese Monopitch (Romaji + Hiragana)
Voicebank Pitch: Alto
Terror Preview
Power Preview
Note: Sanoto's Terror VB was incorrectly categorized as Tenor upon release as I used to believe it was the Male equivalent of a Soprano but lower than Alto. Kind of silly, but at least the VB name kind of holds up.

Mature Pitch/Color: Baritone, Power
Day Pitch/Color: Male Falsetto, Normal
Night Pitch/Color: Baritone, Soft
This is the 2024 art used in Sanoto's CVVC Voicebank. You are free to use a newer or older design to represent it, if you please.

ENGLISH USAGE NOTE
Allistair Sanoto's English phonemes are in the same style as the Japanese ones. Meaning, they use tha/thi/thu/the/tho instead of typical English.
His extra phonemes are as follows:
th- = A soft TH sound. Usually where an "s" phoneme would go when making a Japanese vocal synth sing in English. Used more in certain accents than others.
dh- / dd- = A hard TH sound. Usually where an "z" phoneme would go when making a Japanese vocal synth sing in English. Used for words such as "There."
l- = An English L
wr- = English R's. -r2 are also English R's where as r-2, r-, and -r are Japanese.
zh- = A soft Z
vv- = A very hard "th" sound. Slight lisp.
ng- = An "ng" sound. Used in words such as "Ending"
kw- = A Kw- or Qu- sound. Used in words like "Queen"
ff- = A long and hard F sound.
gw- = A Gw- sound.
dz- = A very hard Z sound. Used more often in Japanese than English.
These all have Kana (Typically Katakana) encoding as well, but the English equivalents are the ones most up to date, whereas the Kana phonemes are the ones most up to date with phonemes NOT listed here.
