CeVIO CeVIO Discussion Thread

[Twillby]

Now a part of me wishes she was on Voisona so she might get a free trial sdfskl Voisona has been spoiling me

It seems I've become more adjusted to high-pitched Flower than I thought because I was almost surprised at how low they had the alpha setting when i first saw it X'P (At the same time I did kind of want to scream, "LEAVE IT YOU COWARDS LET ME HEAR" when they put it on +1 and then immediately started talking over the clip before turning it back down )

Overall though, I think I really like her and I'm really tempted to preorder her. I almost wish I'd waited instead of impulse buying her Vocaloid bank last year, but then again I'm the kind of person who would love to hear a v Flower x Ci Flower duet so it works out

 

[Blue Of Mind]

Even though she's pitched up in those demos, I'm impressed Flower still mostly sounds like her Vocaloid self. A lot of producers tend to pitch up her Vocaloid anyway (to the point of sounding cursed moe), so I wasn't completely thrown off by her CeVIO voice.

 

[MillyAqualine]

Yeah, she sounds more feminine and high-pitched, but strangely it still captures well her usual vocaloid tone (like, she's reacting well to alpha and is sensitive enough, but perhaps not as overly sensitive as other banks that can sound like baritones or chipmunks when you play too much with the alpha ; she reminds me Kohaku (aka Mrs Gold from Color series) in that aspect as you can still hear a difference when you play with the alpha, but she won't suddenly get her timbre switching to a totally different character sensation like other vocals may do)

And while I was afraid of getting trouble to enjoy her Cevio version, finally I love it as much as the vocaloid, at the point I feel it's a good complementary bank with the feminine feel siding by the androgynous Vocaloid and that the lack of a huge gap between the two can also be a nice option for those who are more into one program or the other and want her

It was worth the time!

I think she sounds exactly the way I expected a CeVIO version of flower to sound, which is to say that while I don't think she will replace v4 flower for me, I think people will make really interesting and cool things with her.

In the interview, Maigo Hanyuu talked about how the CeVIO bank feels more feminine where he perceives the vocaloid version to be neither, and that mixing the CeVIO and VOCALOID versions of flower in songs will make it easier to create choruses and good mixes for flower, where he had to use other VOCALOID banks in the past and struggled to pick VBs that matched her tone. I think I can get behind everything he said.

I am glad the launch seems to be progressing peacefully, I think flower is a beloved product in this community for a reason and I think this launch is being treated with respect, which is fantastic.

I think I will buy her in the future.

why this is so funny

It’s the punctuation. The epic visuals, and then ending it all with a period… it’s the visual equivalent of a booming voice from the heavens speaking in monotone.

Seems like some sort of plug in that merges a voisona vb with a guitar

 

[Granata]

So 3 days ago the first actual Haru demo song dropped

 

[WyndReed]

ATOLS was the perfect artist to demo her rap capabilities! Edit: I listened to it when it dropped and again now, and yeah it’s actually really amazing how her vb turned out.

 

[pico]

It's so good. KAMITSUBAKI vocals have too much power!!

Everything about the demo is awesome. I can't wait to hear more.

 

[aru ii]

The isotope girls are now called V.I.P "Virtual Isotope Phenomenon"

 

[Leon]

I think that demo did a really nice job showing Haru off! And it's nice that the synth girls have a title to themselves to differentiate from the humans. the VIP girls just don't really appeal to me, but I'm glad to see them all released and doing well, and hope their fans enjoy using them

 

[aru ii]

New Cevio. Her name is ANИА (is it read as anna or ania afcacqfqfqccqca), she seems to be some sort of “digital artist”, and im not sure if she’ll be sold publicly, or be private.

 

[lIlI]

This type of promotion doesn't work for me, robot singers start being a little creepy when made and marketed like real people. As a result, it feels like they're advertising the concept of owning a person. I think the teams should check out a few dystopian sci-fi movies, as they often launch campaigns that accidentally resemble their horror elements.

I don't really think it's much different from synths that use stock photos as their boxart though tbh

 

[Tortoiseshel]

I'm normally all for these more realistic designs for synths, but I gotta agree with lIlI that the marketing for... I'll just call her "Anna", is a bit off-putting to me. Like, CeVIO's always kind of been the most "moe wife simulator" of all the synth engines (particularly with the talk banks), and putting a hyperrealistic virtual woman on top of that is kinda...

Then again, I could totally be misreading this and they're actually just going for a new level of realistic voice synthesis and that's the reason for the realistic avatar! This is such a minimalist teaser that there's really no way of knowing what's up just yet.
