Have we had demos? I wonder how she sounds, and people might want to hear her before preordering. I feel like a lot of how CeVIO KAFU sounds is, well, due to CeVIO as an engine. SV managed to capture a lot of how Teto sounded, just without the old UTAU twang -- but it's hard to judge how much of the CeVIO engine noise makes up KAFU's "charm"

It’s weird how this time we don’t have demos around the preorder times, bc before kamitsubaki would first do a couple of demos and then start the preorder
I hate to sound paranoid, but is anyone else now worrying about the quality of Kafu SynthV? I mean, many of us weren't exactly impressed with how Kafu CeVIO originally turned out (even though we slowly warmed up to her over time thanks to her quickly becoming popular among producers). SynthV also guns very much for realism, so even though Teto SynthV turned out well, I dunno how it will translate Kafu's unusual voice into a more realistic engine.

I mean if I find one thing odd it's that they delayed Haru twice, announced Kafu SV and started her preorders in the middle of Haru's promotion. Don't get me wrong Haru got rly positive feedback from what I've seen but... that's going to affect her sales so badly. If I was Kamitsubaki I wouldn't even have announced Kafu's update yet and silently work on her in the background & improve the quality

But also I don't think fans wouldn't be too mad if Kafu was lower quality in fact I see a lot of non-SV fans being tired of the hyperrealism

Tbh I’m afraid that dt may not allow kamistubaki to pitch kafu’s recordings up. It was said many times that she was pitched up to be separate from kaf and that it is a very important part of her. If miku’s samples were just unedited samples of saki fujita she would not be Miku anymore, and the same applies for Kafu.

As someone who never warmed up to CeVIO KAFU and dislikes the pitched up sound, I wouldn't personally be upset about that. But I could understand that frustrating fans of the bank, who like her for who she is on release... I'm sure if they could get good quality out of the pitched up ones, DT would allow it. The only reason I could really see them disallowing it is if the quality suffered noticeably because of it.

Tbh even if Dreamtonics might not wanna do it I doubt they can enforce that, Kamitsubaki is a much bigger and more influental company than them, I imagine they can just veto their veto and carry on. Of course that assuming dt even has the proverbial balls to refuse them in the first place. Then again who knows, I am not a Kamitsubaki expert I might overestimate their influence.

Interesting point actually, the gender slider might help tho or a vocal mode to help with that would be cool too if they went the route of not pitching her samples.
