I belong to a very large group of people called Youtaite.
Exactly what is a Youtaite then?
A Youtaite, according to the Utaite Wiki, are Youtube Singers.

YouTube singers are people who posted cover songs using their own
voices in YouTube. Since YouTube is an English
video-sharing website, the nationality of You Tube Singers vary from around the
world. They are commonly called "Youtaite". a portmanteau of YouTube and utaite.


Songs which are covered by Youtaite vary as well. Vocaloid original
songs are one of the most famous to be covered, since most of them have their
instrumental versions freely shared by the producers for the purpose of covering
the song. The other song types are English-language hit songs and English or
other language version of Vocaloid original songs with fan lyrics.

Youtaite also posted a type of songs called "Duet Ready", which is a
specific part of a duet or group song being sung alone by the respective singer.
Usually, the singer will sing the whole part by a specific original singer of
the song, with the purpose of having the cover song available for mixing for
duet or group singing. The permission of using the "Duet Ready" songs varies
between singers.

Like Nico Nico Douga, Youtaite also organize a type of chorus commonly
known as YouTube chorus. There are many mechanisms of creating a chorus, but
overall it will involve agreement from the singers. This is different than Nico
Nico chorus, where choruses are usually made without further agreement or
knowledge from the singers, and only needs mixing skills.

So, to sum it up, I sing vocaloid/anime/japanese/korean songs and get the guts to post them on Youtube as a Youtaite....seems fantastic, because it is.

So how exactly do you become a Youtaite? Do you just start posting, or is there something else you have to do?

Yup! You start posting your covers on youtube! And make sure to not attack copyrights! Just put "cover" at the end of your video, I'm sure you'll do okay~

You can use the voice recorder/camera on your phone to record yourself singing and you can use a movie maker program (imovie, windows movie maker, etc.)
that's how I do, you could also use audacity (computer program), it's recording software.

So, what's the difference between a Fandubber & Youtaite?

One vocaloid song gets you hooked in the entire "Youtaite" Community.

I mean, that term has only been living since 2012, it isn't important to be one, just do song covers like the rest of youtube. Hell, make your own songs if you're skilled enough.
