Does anyone have a way to buy SynthV Pro 1? I know you can still buy it on Amazon, but is there anywhere cheaper than that?

You might find it if you look for third-party sellers on social media or Discord.
Is SynthV 2 Cross-lang different from SynthV 1 Cross-lang for synthv1 banks? And if it is, if you use cross-lang in SynthV 2, then port it to SynthV 1, would the result be in the SynthV 1 style or SynthV 2 styl?

Is your question about moving project files from SV2 to SV1?
Project files contain data that tells the engine what notes and dynamics you want it to sing. It doesn’t contain any “singing” by itself.
The actual methodology for XLS is contained in the engine software. The “style” of the singing is predicted by the “brain” of the engine. Therefore, if you take a file from SV2 to SV1, the file is now talking to SV1’s “brain”, not SV2’s. The SV1 “brain” does not know how SV2 thinks. Therefore the style will be SV1’s.

My SynthV 2 trial just ended so...
-Because I have Yamine Renri (SV1 standard voicebanks are ported as SV2 "Plus" voicebanks, and Renri is the only free full SynthV), I can still use the feature-limited version of SV2.
-I am not allowed most of the tuning and customization options (such as pitch bend and parameters; control points don't work on Renri anyway), but note-bending works...off and on (sometimes the autopitch fights it). Sadly I can't apply vibrato, except by painstakingly note-bending it into existence. If need be I suppose I can tune with Vocalshifter or something.
-Unlike SynthV Basic, cross-lingual is available, but only track-wide; note-level cross-lingual is grayed out as are most of the other note settings.
-It does not restrict you to a 40-note limit if you're not using a trial.
-You're only allowed 1 track; new tracks are automatically perma-muted.
-Voice to MIDI is unavailable.
-Phoneme editing is available within the language you're working in.
-You can technically "generate takes" but I don't think it does anything?
-Rap mode is available.
-Non-trial vocals can have their audio rendered.
-VST and ARA plugin versions are available.
TL;DR:
Unavailable: Parameters, pitch bend, note settings, note-level cross-lingual, phoneme timing, voice-to-midi, >1 track, working AI retakes
Available: Track-level cross-lingual, note splitting, phoneme editing, audio rendering (for non-trials), a "Generate take" option that doesn't really do anything, standalone and VST/ARA plugin, Sing and Rap mode

You may have heard that Cheng Xiao was used by the BBC in a Doctor Who episode! While this may seem like a deeply obscure pull, I get what the musician was cooking - Cheng Xiao's specialism in Chinese Opera gives her a singing style that sounds unusual to Western audiences, perfect for this quirkier use case.
someone i followed mentioned this but i didnt see it, nor do i know what is going on with dr who these days. cant say this cleared up anything... xD
I'm shocked that more TV projects haven't utilized how unsettling vsynths can sound to people. I've seen a lot of people online say they're unsettled by how Vocaloid sounds, so like. why not use it for a horror project, or something...
I honestly feel like there's a gap in the market for a vocal synth that's designed to sound alien - an easy-to-use vsynth that's deliberately 'off', not because of any unintended technological limitations. Producers shouldn't have to resort to Chinese opera for what is the most common creative reason an ordinary musician would reach for an AI: to get something that doesn't sound human.
i think po-uta was an attempt to appeal to that market but:
1) he's on v6
2) he doesn't actually sound that different from the regular Cute Girl vocal oops
Okay now someone who has Po-uta if you're reading this, please make him sing Magical Cure Love Shot
