Vocal modes seem to be standard for Synthesizer V databases going forward so I highly doubt they'll be cutting anything. I'd guess the extra money was going to be for promotion/demo songs, or they found an external source of funding for her.

Within 24 hours of launch it seems she managed to hit one of those "extra goals" already - as of now she's at 13,865,020JPY (~$102k), which is less than 2 million off what Karin managed to raise in total. She's doing even better than I expected!

Chifuyu's crowdfund hit 10,000,000JPY (~$75,000 USD) a few minutes ago. This was the third and final main goal. She did it in 1 hour and 8 minutes, which easily breaks the records set before her I think. 1st Goal (6,000,000JPY (~$45,000 USD)): 4 minutes and 30 seconds (roughly) 2nd Goal...

Sato Sasara AI on VoiSona is actually something we heard years ago, as it's what they were originally showing off her voice with (CeVIO Pro). A bit poor quality, but I remember uploading it to SoundCloud at the time: Essentially it's just Sasara AI from CeVIO AI but with a better Vocoder. As...

Yeah these are uh.... quite literally the same specs as Synthesizer V AI vocals (just checked my SOLARIA box to confirm, even the processor is the same). 99% she's a Synthesizer V AI vocal and they just aren't allowed to explicitly say that yet.

Just dropping in to say that the logical conclusion is just "they jumped the gun on announcing the engine". Given what happened before, I'd say it's very likely any company doing a crowdfund would confirm with the company (and ensure both parties have that confirmation in writing) before...

Animen are a company based in Taiwan with a Japanese branch, Dreamtonics are a Japanese company. I feel like I'm saying it a lot but this box is a placeholder and will be different to what her final box looks like, it's just something to show "yes, she will have a physical version".

Glad that Eleanor is finally getting the box she deserves~ I hope everyone will take advantage of the second round pre-order too. If you already pre-ordered you'll be able to upgrade to a physical version so don't worry about that!! (Also, this design is only a placeholder, look forward to the...

ZERO has basically turned back into just being a concept I think. Since AI is now possible there's no reason to mess around with the Xingchen/ZERO thing they would have had to do with a Standard voice being compared to VOCALOID4 Xingchen. Xingchen's issue is that there are unresolved contractual...

It's not mentioned in the status section but Hiroto-P did say that if they do a commercial bank for Rev his voice provider may change. I'm not sure if that in itself has changed since the VB has been made but that's what was said before. So ROSA's goal will be 7 million... I was going to say...

They very likely recorded a much shorter list which only contains the absolute necessary transitions, whereas normally you would record to cover as much as possible. Which makes sense, because if you recorded a full pitch that's essentially a Lite Standard voice. They aren't planning to produce...

In the same general sense, yes, but saying that is the same as saying it's like configuring a DeepVocal VB, or any other synth for that matter. I wouldn't put it like that myself because it oversimplifies things and can give the wrong impression (want to avoid what happened with people's...

Standard basically needs a lot more care and attention when recording as well as a more carefully monitored recording environment, and I believe Kanru wants to monitor Eleanor's Standard recordings at Dreamtonics' office if they do happen. Eleanor's voice provider isn't in Japan and it's...

I think people mostly missed it with the announcement of the arts, but they also announced she's going to be crowdfunded. They're working with SSS (of Zunko, Kiritan and NFT fame) to crowdfund a Japanese CeVIO AI Talk bank from June 1st to June 30th. They're using Green Funding, which is the one...

She went into the recording studio but today was just a sample. Next time will be the real deal! She'll do her best to be in top vocal condition for the proper recording.

Labelling is essentially the configuration process for Synthesizer V. I can't explain it too well since I'm not a programmer but it's essentially marking what part of a sample is which sound, which then gets fed into Synthesizer V's machine learning algorithm to output a voice database. Since...

All I have to say is GOOD lord are her SynthV banks good... like far better than I expected based on the original demos. Her Japanese AI bank especially sounds amazing, I love how she sounds in inabakumori's demo. English is really cute while still being understandable, I hope we get a full...

SynthV is not anywhere near $60k, Dreamtonics aren't Yamaha. Can't really say much beyond that but that would be like... the range at which you're doing a lot more than a single AI bank. I kind hoped we'd get the goal before the crowdfunding opened but I guess we'll have to wait until the...

Probably closer to how she sounded as ENG-F1, so a bit more mature. There's a bit of a difference between the two so it's possible she was altered in that period. I hope everyone will like it though.

She hasn't been dead is the thing, people have just been expecting a Taiwanese company working in Japan to be able to get an American voice provider to Japan in the middle of a pandemic, combined with AI becoming an option and complicating their decision making. If you're still interested in her...
