I was originally wondering if the wrong song was used for their beta demos because of how strained they all sound on the high notes, but sheesh. It's definitely a... sound. Lol. It almost reminds me of a worse, pitchy version of CeVIO.
Apologies for reviving an old thread with a reply to my own post, but I've been doing some more thinking on this subject since I originally wrote it up. I wouldn't say my views have done a complete 180, but I have developed more of a nuance regarding it.
I think the biggest mistake I made...
The only thing I don't like about Tsudumi's design is her name being on the sleeves of her... jacket? Or are they detached sleeves separate from the rest of the outfit? It's a trend I've hated for ages in current fashion, so it's just a personal preference.
(New headcanon: Tsudumi is so...
I don't think "vindicated" is the right word to describe this opinion at all (since it sounds super-fangirlish on my end), but after seeing the recent technical issues with SynthV, the odd business decisions related to CeVIO and the struggles of other engines such as Piapro NT, Maghni and...
I totally agree with this section of your post - unless we start educating Japanese fans and companies as to why NFTs are a bad idea, more NFT projects will just spring up in the vocal synth fandom. The Western and Japanese fandoms have long been "walled" and kinda closed off from each other...
Controversial opinion on vocal synths and NFTs: As much as I agree with almost everyone else in the fandom that associating with NFTs is shitty, it doesn't actually put me off from listening to a VB. Am I miffed about IA and Lapis being associated with NFTs? Yes, very much so. Will I stop...
I agree with the second theory that Miku being the most popular means her fans are more likely to listen to tracks from new producers. Why take a massive risk with a more obscure VB when you could use Miku and get some attention from her fandom?
I also think part of the reason so many producers...
(Is it okay if I double post? This thread hasn't updated for a month).
I honestly don't mind having stuff like story modes and canon personalities in vocal synth games. For example, as much as I'm okay with how Project Diva presents the Cryptonloids as blank slates in terms of characterisation...
Super random, but has anyone else noticed that redesigned Tianyi's dress kinda resembles a lotus?
Other than that, I'm also a bit baffled by Yan He's redesign because it doesn't look like that much has changed between the original and new designs. Ling is an improvement, however.
I must admit, I was originally disappointed with V3 IA because she didn't sound much like Lia (who's voice I'm a big fan of), but overtime I came to appreciate how Vocaloid made IA sound distinct from Lia. CeVIO IA threw me for a loop because it's tonally close to Lia, and I've been hearing...
I don't mind the design, but I can see why other people are upset. It's the least 'Flower'-looking design we've seen so far (as in, it's very divorced from both V3 and V4 Flower's designs). For comparison, at least Miku NT's design takes cues from previous versions - Ci Flower doesn't seem to do...
There are some songs that are easy to remember in romanji (I.e. Senbonzakura, which admittedly doesn't translate too well into English), and others which are a nightmare to recall (I.e. Arifureta Sekai Seifuku, which I just refer to as Common World Domination). I do alternate between English and...
Is it okay for me to admit that I find people who insist on romanji song titles pretentious? It make it more difficult to even look up a song in the first place without an English translated title. It also doesn't help that some Project Diva games don't offer a fully translated title for some...
NFTs are trashy, but at this point so many individuals and companies are doing them that I've reached a stage where I've started turning a blind eye to such things. They're basically those multi-level marketing scams aimed at tech bros, and I'm now of the opinion that if you want to get involved...
I've recently been on a William Gibson kick - I've just finished off the Sprawl trilogy, though I do know a bit about Idoru from the Bridge trilogy and how it pretty much predicted Miku, albeit Gibson thought of AI for his virtual idols rather than a crowdsourced thing.
If anything, Miku...
Comparing the new demo and the original song side by side, Sekai seems to have the same issue as Kafu where the VB sounds cuter compared to the VP. But knowing Kafu's situation, this was probably intentional. The tuning could also be a stylistic choice for that particular demo too.
The title is a very interesting question to this Miku stan, because I thought I would be able to answer it very easily, but in truth, I'm drawing blanks. I can tell you why I was originally drawn to Miku as a character when I was around 11-years old, though - her design plays to nearly...
