We would like to express our deepest sympathies to everyone affected by the recent earthquake that occurred mainly in the Noto Peninsula.

It's been so long since I heard about X Studio that I forgot about it as;lkfd

She sounds really beautiful here though! That's really nice

 

[Granata]

From the demo I actually prefer her tone in X Studio over her tone in Ace. Also Tianyi moving engines should be Ace's death sentence because they failed financially and now their most popular vb is moving

It seems that she isn’t moving, but expanding. Vsinger has been partnering with xstudio for a long time. + she’ll move to v6 eventually

Michelle is pretty, but quite hard to understand, Lucas just doesn't feel like a super strong singer, if that makes sense. He's not quite giving the emotional performance I'd want for a lead in this demo. It's surprising they didn't go for a deeper guy yet; I wonder if Yamaha is unhappy with V6's low range? I'm sure they could both sound great with some more ambitious tuning, but they're hard to justify when there are vocals that sound better by default.

New Synthesizer V as well, Miyamai Moca. I don't want to judge a book by its school uniform, but I can't say I'm super hyped for her either. I'm sure she'll be cute, but she feels a bit like Chifu-two. I do enjoy her bio (talks to cats and is a secret DJ on the internet).

Here's her VOICEPEAK, for an idea of her voice:



However, her voice provider has a lot more range than she lets on with Moca's voice acting - maybe AHS will branch out from their samey modes, and we'll get something like this in addition? She's genuinely an awesome singer, so it depends on how AHS interprets Moca's character.

oh man, really love the VA's actualy singing. im afraid theyll just stick to the cute school girl character regardless, unless theres a sudden reveal of them having a twist for them to sound more like that. ill cross my fingers

 

[DefiantKitsune]

For what it's worth, I think Michelle is more understandable than the demo makes her seem; the mix is overpowering her in that and making her hard to hear- she's really not that bad for understandability (disclaimer that i changed the pronunciation of "devastating" to be the right number of syllables but didn't touch the phonemes otherwise.)

Internet Co. seems to have a new character in the works, named 'Hibiki Koto' (花響 琴). She will be revealed on March 18th.

 

[Blue Of Mind]

I'm just gonna wait for people to assume this new girl has something to do with Lui Hibiki.

 

[wrong_thyme]

did anyone have "intco releases a new character before they even update una to sv (cause we all know it's gonna happen)" on their bingo cards for this year

anyway praying for a unique voice type

 

[lIlI]

A new character from Internet.co feels like old-school vocal synth excitement. Very mysterious not knowing the engine, or even whether she's a talk or song voicebank.
