I still think 9Z needs something like a Soft or Whisper vocal mode, because his base voice sounds like he's constantly shouting all the time. On the other hand, the loudness of his voice is a godsend for louder genres - for a long time, I think hard rock and metal producers have struggled to use...

Here's hoping for Korean and Spanish crosslingual in the future, and perhaps some new languages for V6 later on!

I must admit, Haru is fast becoming my favourite Kamitsubaki VB, mainly because she doesn't sound as pitch-shifted and "moe-fied" as the other girls. I really like her rap capabilities too, so I hope we get more demos showing that off.

Wait a min, is this about Kanru Hua?

I'm personally of the opinion that VBs should be divorced from VPs (I mean, people still like SeeU and Yohioloid despite the controversies surrounding their VPs), but I still appreciate that info coming to light. Dreamtonics is definitely one of those companies that aren't deeply into ethics...

If there's one other issue I can hear with Ninezero so far (aside from people not liking his tone), he sounds like he's constantly shouting in the demo. Of course, Dreamtonics almost always posts terrible demos that undersell their VBs, so it could be a case of poor internal usage. But he's...

The name is definitely a wildcard after all the "normal" names we've had for the letter VBs so far. It's also cool to see a VB with an English accent that isn't American or British. (The VP is Australian). I'm definitely hoping he can pull off lighter metal genres too.

I was trying to think who the voice reminded me of, and someone on Twitter said he sounded like Jack Black as a voice synth. Now I can't unhear it!

In all fairness, similar restrictions have appeared for previous vocal synths, such as the Cryptonloids. They mainly operate as a failsafe measure, just in case an extremely controversial or inappropriate song gets too viral to the point it begins to damage the image of a company. There's tons...

This was what I was trying to say in my original post. Truth be told, most if not all fandoms are experiencing the curse of parasocial relationships now - yanno, fans treating creators and companies like their best buddies, when they really don't know anything about them at all. It's really...

So this kinda relates to the recent Dreamtonics drama, buuut... Does anyone else find it weird how parasocial the relationship between the fandom and the various companies and dev teams has become? It might just be a result of the Western vocal synth fandom skewing so young and me getting too...
