Update 2.0.4 just released. according to its changelog, quite a few issues got fixed
SynthV Synthesizer V Studio 2
- Thread starter lIlI
- Start date
From my tests, this seems already way more usable with faster rendering and less finnicky pitch bending
synth v no longer seems to do a direct download of an installer of a voice to the PC anymore, does it? anyone know if its hidden somewhere? while for program updates itself the installer gets downloaded to my PC's download folder, ones for voices i dont seem to find. Even ES' emails for their new voices direct you to using SV2's hub thing. i like saving every installer i ever get myself and its kinda annoying if this cant be done with voices... Dreamtonics says how theyre glad to not have SV2 running on a cloud like some software these days, but is it really any different if you need to rely on an internet connection to install voices every time, because you cant hold on to installers offline...? if anyone knows if theyre in the files somewhere i would love to know...
I thought about that, but also it doesn't feel functionally very different from having to get online at least once to activate them, so I sort of let it go. And you can use SV offline too IIRC
But yeah it would be nice. Maybe you can DL them from your products page in browser?

yeah, theres always other issues about internet connection and activation regardless, im mostly a "save everything just in case" sort of person (theres more likely to be ways to cheese activation offline than recovering a lost installer thats been removed everywhere on the internet, ya know?)
if you mean downloading them from the "my account" page on the dreamtonics store, my page says i have no downloads. if you mean downloading them from the my.dreamtonics page in browser, then it doesnt show a "download" button for any of my V2 voices (but does for V1, i assume because SV1 still works that way of needed a seperate installer). i know it did when i hadnt installed the voices yet so, i imagine if i were to click it in browser when the voice isnt installed, it would try to open the app...?
if your goal is saving the vb install, you can backup the %APPDATA%/Dreamtonics/Synthesizer V Studio 2 Pro directory. It contains the installed vbs
ill definitely do that, but having installers for actual previous versions is why i think about it being nice to have since its a bit simpler :/ i guess in any case id be backing up the appdata content before every update gets installed to try and do the same lol, which is at least an option
they seem to be there, just different format. I clicked on Wei Shu, and on the pop up in the bottom left corner, there is something to click which brings a drop down of various demos. scroll enough and theres english ones. dont know if some may be missing for other voices, though. but it seems like they all have the same large list of demo songs for all languages (or i think its just japanese, english, and chinese right now. probably more later)
in the bottom right corner, you can also pick vocal modes.

Oh thanks, I didn't know it could scroll because no scrollbar of any kind.
