Be aware in addition to checking your end, you have to given leyway for the engine limits itself. This is because in both cases, the engine will be having to fill stuff in and make things work, so you have to be aware of this too. UTAUs quality compared to Vocaloid is notable worst, this isn't what "sells" the attraction to it though.

Go look at KAITO (VOCALOID1). The vocal has a lot of engine noise but was still popular and often this lead to usage and popularity being on par with Vocaloid2 vocals for several reasons. The engine was worst but the vocal was more compatible with it. And Meiko Power was a vocal that was not possible in V2 but was in V3. So be aware another limit is your own vocal.

Its software afterall.
