VOCALOID Hatsune Miku VOCALOID6
- Thread starter MagicalMiku
- Start date
Miku Vocaloid6 will be available to freely try at Crypton booth of Niconico Chokaigi 2026 (April 25-26), together with Miku NT2, limited goods and..maybe some announcements too
(the hints are a bit vague, so the announcements might be about new goods, or some new figures, but might be also new features of Miku V6, NT2, or even some other Piapro Characters. We know that now the development team can focus more on Luka, but I think some announcements for her might happen during talking session of Magical Mirai in Tokyo, but it really depends on the development schedule

I see most people on here are seemingly mostly positive for V6 Miku, so i thought I'd throw my voice into the ring for a more critical take on her vb.
I am not the biggest Miku V6 fan. She still sounds like NT, and i feel like Crypton's continuous chasing of that sound over something clearer is somewhat limiting them. I don't want another robotic Miku with clicky consonants as we already have SP and NT2. I would much rather have the AI voicebank actually sound like her most realistic option. V4X still reigns as her most used and bought VB even after NT and SP releases, and I think thats in part due to her more realistic tone, and while I know Crypton doesnt like realism, I have always believed that Miku's strength is being for everyone to use and have their own unique style with, and continuing to pursue the robotic NT sound is isolating those that would rather have a clearer, more V4X-like sound and more realistic style. While I don't exactly hate V6, I believe that the community giving too positive of a feedback to this will just continue to have Crypton remain in the NT sound and leave fans like myself, who prefer realistic vocals or hate NT, behind.

Seconded. I listened to a bit of the english demo on this thread and she still sounded a bit too robotic for a V6. Compare that to the realism of V6 Gumi.
Not to say that I like SV approach of realism (I still do not like it that much), but at least CFM should learn about the mechanism behind the SV-like vocal realism, so that it can benefit CFM to produce a more individual character-tailored realistic voicebank, instead of modular realistic AI voicebank produced by SV
