Enjoy Kanon? I also worked on the translation for SNOW by the same publisher!
For a proper installation:
- Install the English patch over a fresh installation of Kanon, running the NDT patcher. Then replace the game files and folders with the contents of my Voice Patch .zip folder.
- Including files from NDT’s “All Ages” folder may break the voice patch.
- Installing this patch over an already-modified Kanon installation (e.g. 音声化完全版 Ver.1.2) may cause unfixable errors.
(Video of the installation process, including how to bypass Windows Defender.)
What Does This Patch Do?
This patch takes the original Kanon translation by NDT, the voices from the Dreamcast release of the game, the voices from the PSP release, and makes them all work together! Furthermore, it provides fixes to the translation’s script, programming, and adds/restores features that were lost during the translation process.
Every character will be fully voiced except for Yuuichi who is only voiced during important scenes, Little Busters! style. Many scenes will include higher-quality recordings.
This should also fix the common bugs and errors that come from people using outdated versions of the original voice patch (such as the infamous “Mai’s voice stopped working!” or “The Great Shiori Distaster” bugs of old) issues that spread when the final version of the original voice patch was lost to time.
After several years of support, many issues large and small—from the original code and the translation patch—have been fixed. A changelog is included below.
If you wish to report your own bug or typo discovery, please comment below with the exact line. If you have a comprehensive list, please post it in the Kanon fan Discord where I can respond to them in bulk.
Kanon is a game that originally had no voices, so having almost the entirety of the game voiced is a great enhancement to an already amazing story. However, this voice patch was made by one person with fan-developed tools, based on a troubled translation of a non-voiced script, and built atop a foreign-language game that wasn’t intended to be messed with.
There are several layers of modification built into this patch that were developed across multiple decades by many different people. It has changed hands from the developers of the PC game to the devs of the console ports, to fans who ported enhancements back to the PC version. From the multiple individuals who created the tools for modifying Kanon, to the several teams that worked on the translation over the years, to the staff who created official tools and documentation for the game’s engine.
Eventually, it came to me, to this site where the game has continued development for many years.
Today it’ll go to you. Please enjoy it.

I haven’t experimented very much with trying to port SE to ME, so I won’t say it’s impossible, but I don’t know the exact solution.
What you could do, particularly for the scaling issue, is mess with your graphics driver settings. For AMD drivers, the setting you want will be in Radeon’s Gaming tab, Display, GPU Scaling. You can enable Integer Scaling for a crisper look if you don’t mind some black borders.
I imagine Nvidia and Intel’s driver software have similar features,
If you’re using a particularly large monitor (>1080p) or have multiple monitors, you could also use ShaderGlass with an upscaling shader such as sabr or nedi. It’ll mirror the window and upscale the image with less pixelation, but it won’t be true full screen.

Clear data should transfer over (for CG gallery and route completions), but you likely wouldn’t be able to properly load any of your save files, and it’d reset any text you’ve already read to being unread. I wouldn’t recommend modding the game mid-playthrough honestly.

Okay, so I did a lot of research on the differences between Kanon’s voices in its console ports. Here’s what I found out:
Dreamcast version:
-Decent audio quality
-Fully voiced except for Yuuichi
PS2 version (initial release):
-Poor audio quality
-Same voices as the Dreamcast version
PS2 version (Best Edition):
-Even better audio quality than the Dreamcast version
-Same voices as the Dreamcast version
PSP version:
-Poor audio quality
-Only some scenes are voiced, but Yuuichi is also covered in them
-All lines were newly recorded. Shiori is recast, while all other characters are voiced by their original voice actors, but with some differences in their performances.
Switch version:
-Audio quality is almost as good as the Best Edition (although the difference is so minimal, it may be inaudible)
-Voices are taken from the PSP version wherever available. The rest are from the Best Edition, except for Shiori’s, which were newly recorded by her PSP voice actress.
In conclusion, it sounds like the Best Edition is the closest there is to a definitive console port, as far as the voices are concerned. Its only downside is the lack of voice acting for Yuuichi. The Switch version made a serious mistake with its decision to mix original voices with those recorded for the PSP version, resulting in the same actors giving inconsistent performances in different scenes.
From what I can gather, your patch currently uses PSP voices wherever available and takes the rest from the Dreamcast version. As a result, the voices are heavily compressed in all scenes that the PSP version covered, while still not sounding as good as they could in the rest. Furthermore, it suffers from even bigger inconsistencies than the Switch version, since Shiori’s voices aren’t even all from the same voice actress.
If you want to stick with your current approach of mixing old and new voices, you’d benefit from taking all of the voices from the Switch version. It would improve their quality and at least eliminate the inconsistencies with Shiori. However, I think the best solution would be to only use Yuuichi’s voice from the Switch version and take everything else from the Best Edition. That would get rid of all performance inconsistencies.
LikeLike
Oh right. Just remembered you said you took your non-PSP voices from the PS2 version. So ignore what I said about the quality of the Dreamcast voices. They’re probably worse.
This is weird though. Your voices have a slightly lower sample rate than the actual voices from the Best Edition (44100 Hz vs. 48000 Hz). They definitely sound a bit worse overall. Some of that can perhaps be blamed on the OGG compression, but why is the sample rate different?

I’m a bit confused. The file info.txt claims we should be able to choose between voice files from either the Dreamcast and PSP versions or the Switch version. Yet I can only find a download for the former. Also, what’s the difference between them?

I’ll just put this here for the sake of everyone who downloads this in the future. If, before installing this patch, your Kanon folder has a folder named “KOE” in it, you need to delete that folder first, and then you can safely drop the contents of this patch into your folder. The KOE folder is what contains all the voice files, and since the PC versions of Kanon are unvoiced by default, having a KOE folder in there from the beginning means your copy came preinstalled with an older, almost certainly broken voice patch, and those files are in a different format, namely .ogg, than this patch’s files, which are .wav, so they aren’t overwritten if you drop this in before clearing them out.
This causes the old voice files to play instead of the ultimate voice patch’s files, so, for instance, Nayuki’s voice will play when Yuuichi speaks in the prologue, instead of his own voice. If you get this error, you can still fix it by deleting the KOE folder, but you’ll need to drop the patch’s KOE folder into the Kanon folder again afterwards. I had to figure this all out by myself last year, so may this spare everyone else the hours of frustration I went through.
LikeLike

Having some similar issues as others have mentioned with voice lines playing at the wrong time. Specifically, I’d hear a voice line, then then about 10 clicks later would see the text that the voice line should have played on, at which time another voice line would play.
I did a full re-install from scratch following the instructions, and it reproduces reliably. First I installed the game from the disk image. Then copied the NDT patch in and ran reallive-patch.exe (after struggling to get Windows Defender to un-quarantine it). I did not include the All Ages files, as mentioned. Then I copied in your patch, and then the bugfix patch. I did not include the 18+ patch. At that point, after launching the game, the aforementioned issue manifests in the prologue and in the first scene after the intro.
I took full backups of the game directory after each step and can verify that the issue does not happen with just the NDT patch applied. It happens once your patch is added (with or without the bugfix patch). So unless I have not followed the install instructions correctly, I think what’s currently being hosted is maybe not quite working as intended.
You’ve obviously put a ton of effort into this patch and I would love to use it. Please let me know if you have any ideas, or if I can help troubleshoot.

I hate to say it, but I really don’t know why this happens for some people. I’ve had it reported more than once over the years, so I know it’s a replicable problem, but I can never replicate it on my end. I don’t know where and how the voice lines play for you, but if I knew exactly, I could pinpoint the problem.
It sounds like your installation process was correct, attempted multiple times even, so I hate to fall back on my usual first guess… But it sounds like something that’d be caused either by a seen file not being replaced correctly, or the voices not being replaced correctly.
In hopes that it’ll preemptively help you out and save you time that’d be lost on waiting for back-and-forth responses, I recorded my installation process.
LikeLike
I appreciate the reply and the video. Looks like pretty much functionally an identical install process. Some possible differences:
I’m mounting the disc image using the windows-native disc image mounting instead of DaemonTools.
I’m using 7-zip to extract the archives.
My Windows 10 system is in Japanese locale.
I will go ahead and try tweaking all of those variables to see if that fixes the issue.
I did also notice a similar issue in someone else’s thread about files like D:\Games\Visual Novels\KEY\KANON_SE\KOE\0000\Z000000000.ogg existing next to a Z000000000.wav file. You had indicated that was potentially problematic. After the initial install of the game, I poked around in the KOE folders and can confirm all the audio files in there are .ogg files. Looking in your patch, all the audio files are .wav. After applying everything, the KOE folders are full of both the original ogg files and the new wav files. I think this is because Windows merges folders when you copy a folder into a directory with an existing folder with that name.
Maybe my install image is busted, or the wrong one? If those .ogg files shouldn’t ever be there and they are coming from the original install then that might explain that (and probably other people’s issues too). I took an md5 checksum of the KANON_SE.ISO if that’s helpful. 63475fb3a860426492e4d36eefe1e14f
Comparing your install process with mine, after initial install I already had a KOE directory present in the game directory, and when I go look at the ISO it’s there on the disc image as well. So that seems like potentially a smoking gun? If indeed I am installing from a different disc image than you, that would probably explain everything (and probably a lot of the other people’s issues as well).
I will do some more testing. If this does turn out to be the issue, it might be nice to include a checksum of the right disk image in your post’s instructions.
LikeLike
Yep, I was using a different install image, and people with similar issues almost certainly were too.
I acquired a different image and it seems to work properly now. The correct disc image has an md5 checksum of 2c126c2ee21689bd07cc62d4fa91050d and a size on disk as reported by Windows of 716 MB (750,784,512 bytes).
Thanks so much for helping troubleshoot, and thanks for the patch, looking forward to enjoying Kanon for the first time!

I see, that makes a lot of sense. Thanks for figuring this out!
Kanon Standard Edition is completely voiceless, so in an unmodified uninstallation, the KOE folder wouldn’t exist until a voice patch is applied.
After a brief check online, it seems the most distributed version of the game nowadays is Kanon ～Standard Edition～音声化完全版 Ver.1.2, which is an unofficial pre-patched version that adds voices to the game.
At the time of making this patch, 全版1.2 was infamously hard to find. I’ve even mentioned it in an earlier comment on this page. I never expected to see it becoming the default option for people, but that’ll definitely cause issues.

I had the same issue. I believe I have corrected it by simply deleting the existing KOE folder and copying from the patch instead. I won’t know for certain until I play further, but Yuichi’s voiced lines appear in the prologue in time with his text and Nayuki’s lines are properly timed as well.

Couple of issues,
Before applying the ultimate voice patch you have the option to change name on the main menu but after applying it the option is no longer present. The old NDT patch has a note in it’s readme saying “Reminder: Be sure to set the players’ name in Kanon.” So idk what’s going on with this.
The other thing is that same NDT readme suggests using the DejaVuSansMono font for optimal reading experience which the game allows you to select before applying the ultimate voice patch.. but afterwards that font doesn’t appear in the list of options anymore. Super weird.
LikeLike
The protagonist’s name cannot be changed in the PSP version of the game, so that limitation is reflected in this patch.
Restoring the feature would require listening through every voice line for a mention of the protagonist’s name, cutting it out of the recording, saving it as an alternative file to the original, and then implementing a check before each line to see if the protagonist’s name is set to Yuuichi or not. I instead decided to leave it out.
DejaVuSansMono is an English font. Unfortunately, the backend code that allows Kanon to accept English fonts also breaks the “return to previous choice” feature, which allows you to quickly return to the last choice you made. That feature has been restored in this patch, so DejaVuSansMono is incompatible as a result.
I recommend Segoe UI with “Thick (for thin fonts)”. It’s a default Windows font, so most readers should have access to it, and it’s the font used in testing.

If the bug continues through the 30th, it’ll be a problem with the file SEEN0423. If you have a file named as such in your Kanon directory, deleting it should fix the bug. If you installed the 18+ patch, that may be the culprit.

Hi!
I’m currently using NDT’s translation of Kanon (Standard Edition with H scenes) with either the NQ/HQ PS2 Voice Patch and I’m having some troubles as well with Shiori’s route from the 28th with Voice files suddenly not working.
I’d mostly like to use the PS2/DC voice files as I’ve already played through Nayuki’s route and I find them more endearing than the PSP voices, and not having Yuiichi’s lines (by default with NDT’s patch) not present also makes the experience more immersive.
I was wondering what approach I should take if I wanted to get Shiori’s PS2 voice restored to that patch, as I have seen playthroughs of Shiori’s Route (part 69 on a playthrough if you’re interested) working as intended and I’ve basically exhausted all my option’s at this point other than to have no voices, or to use the PSP lines (Yuiichi and all) which would be a real shame at this point in ny playthrough ;u;)

Can you please explain how exactly I’m supposed to use this patch?
It says in your post that it combines both translation and voices, but the Ultimate Voice Patch doesn’t translate the game for me. I’ve tried both patching with a reallive patch as well as simply dropping the Ultimate Voice Patch files in the game directory, but I end up with the game in japanese in both cases.
I can get the game in English by downloading the English patch separately from elsewhere and then putting your Ultimate Voice Pack on top of that installation, but that disables h scenes (and possibly more) for some reason and leaves me with missing CG’s in the gallery.
I’ve spent at least 5 hours now trying to get your voice patch to work without scenes being cut from the game, but I can’t find a solution to the problem.

It is installed over the NDT translation like you would the other voice patch: use the English patch and then drag n drop the files from the voice patch into the Kanon folder.
The patch will disable H scenes by default, and I’ve yet to create a patch to add them into the game because they’re not really worth the time it’d take to program in. The missing CGs in the gallery are the H-scene CGs.

It uses the replacement voice actor where available and otherwise uses her original voice actor.
