EHHHH
miki vb that doesn't go off-key? i would be down for that
(then part of me also wants her to have a standard vb so she still has a vb that sounds like a robot. i kinda miss synthv standard, it was so clear)

According to translations of the stream, AHS is also considering bringing Kaai Yuki to SynthV using her old recordings, but this requires liaising with Yamaha and hasn't been finalised.
I trust Kiyoteru will be a pretty straightforward upgrade, but I'm curious as to how Miki's robotic tone will be handled. Something like Teto to SynthV Teto would be a nice balance (a clear upgrade but still retaining her tone and some artificiality). I really hope she gets a new design!

Preserving miki's tone gets a little strange because miki was also intended to be a realistic capture of Miki Furukawa's voice (which it was, probably the closest V2 to their VP by a large margin), so they could go a lot of directions there.
I'm so exciteedddd omg after a few pretty quiet years, 2023 is like a vsynth renaissance
I think they'll both do great! I don't actually recall Miki having a robotic voice, at least no more so than any other Vocaloid of her era, so I think they'll both be fine :)

I WON
edit to actually have some substance to this post lmao: It's been yeeeeeeeeears since I last posted anything about a potential Synth V Kiyoteru but it all led up to this moment. truly a momentous time. now to speedrun to next year

The way my first thought upon hearing of a Kiyoteru update was to you and Taro, I'm so happy for the Kiyoteru stans everywhere
Re Miki: That's interesting that not everyone remembers her as being robotic, for me she's always been one of the quintessential crunchy synths, even more so than Miku. The weird pitch behaviours, the choppiness, the background noise were all definitely unintended results of AHS' then inexperience; but I think these quirks ultimately became part of what I think of when I think Miki. Normally I prefer realism, but Miki's jank feels iconic to me at this point. I'd love a voicebank that retained that texture whilst losing the glitches that made her hard to use.
but most importantly.
bring back her stripey socks

KIYOTERU AI??? [said with the same expression as the 'beyonce?!' meme]
and I'm curious how miki will sound on synthv, she had a v fun unique tone in her vocaloid banks

MIkI is back I am buying her day one ;-: she’s one of my top 5 vocaloids I am so excited ;-;
Miki has always been marketed as
""SF-A2 Development Code miki" is a VOCALOID created by faithfully reproducing the real voice of artist "Furukawa Miki"."
So it's likely Miki synth V is going to sound way closer to Furukawa's voice than her vocaloid. If you look at Sora she also sounds closer to her voice provider than vocaloid. I realize people might not be as familiar with Furukawa's voice so here's some songs that I think could be potentially vocal modes.
Default
Soft / mellow
Power/ vivid
Dark / adult
Cute

i love that miki is sampled from an indie/shoegaze type singer, i love that sort of music
oh my goodness i lowkey never looked into miki's VP, and WOW her voice really DOES sound so unique and close to the vocaloid! its actually quite surprising. i cannot wait for how the SV will sound
glad they finally did this, i always see ppl asking a lot about vocal modes and its not great to go into buying them without totally knowing if you like them (i have had a couple that i honestly wish i didnt buy because i dont find their vocal modes to sound different enough).
I didn't know about the demo songs update!! That's so cool. Super nice to have everything side-by-side. Anybody else notice how similar some of the Dreamtonics banks sound, lol? I thought Kevin and Hayden were the same for a second.
people have certainly brought it up before. though id never find hayden and kevin sounding that similar tbh-- but they have so many voices at this point... no surprise theyre starting to sound more similar (and they dont tend to push for wilder sounding voices. i guess trying to stay in line with what they expect the professional industry to want)
PANICKED because I didn't know whether to put this in the Saros thread or the Jun thread, so it is here instead:
I think they have an upload error, as the song cuts off suddenly.

looks like the link you shared is deleted now, so i imagine is there was an issue that was the case. heres a new link:
another collab! cool to see them doing this while also theyre both at NAMM.
