Currently Sandboxing: Another Song Guide (Ported ver.)

In [[Hatsune Miku: Project DIVA Mega Mix+|Project Diva Mega Mix+]], '''''Change Vocals''''' (ボーカルチェンジ, lit. ''bokaru chenji'') is a system that allows players to select different vocalists for a song that supports the feature. This changes the in-game vocal track to an alternate version, allowing for players to fully immerse themselves for more than just the original vocalist. Informally, this feature is often referred to by players as '''Cover Songs''' or '''Alternative Vocals''', the latter being the official term used by SEGA for Project Sekai.

When a Change Vocal is selected, the game also automatically updates the performing character model on-screen to match the new vocalist. This includes changes to the character's presence in the PV (pre-rendered or scripted real-time performance), as well as their default module (costume), unless manually overridden by the player. Some songs even feature subtle animation or camera differences depending on the vocalist, such as the bulletin board at the end of ''Piano x Forte x Scandal''.

For this guide, we'll be going through the process of adding a new audio track (henceforth referred to as the ''cover audio'') to the Change Vocals system, using a ''pre-mixed'' version of a song (i.e. an album release). While those who wish to only change the vocal track itself are able to follow along, do understand that there will be some pointers in this guide where it will '''not''' work for your use case.

== Requirements ==
=== Programs ===
* '''Audacity'''
** This guide uses '''Audacity 3.2.5''' (2023) for all screenshots
** An equivalent or better audio editor (i.e. '''FL Studio''') is also permissible. Please modify the steps to fit your editor.
* '''Notepad++'''
** Any text editor can be used, however do understand that there will be some steps where manual intervention may instead be required.

=== Files ===
You should be starting with the following files:
* Your '''cover audio'''
* The '''original audio'''*
* The correct '''pv_db'''* file
** Base Game: '''pv_db'''
** Extra Songs DLC: '''mdata_pv_db'''
** Modded Songs: '''mod_pv_db'''

If you don't know where to locate files with '''*''' next to them, please check [[Locating Files]] to find the appropriate file.

For this tutorial, I'll be using the Miku version of '''Kokoro''' from the album '''[[https://vocadb.net/Al/1048 Vocalo Tears]]]'''
