And there is no way in hell I'm spending $200 on a voice synthesizer.
Scratch that. $79

What is this thing? I installed it and its kind of mind blowing... I don't like the idea of cloud dependency so the price would have to reflect that. $200 would be way too much. I'd prefer to pay-for-use. Much like other cloud based digital products where there is a free version and a few different paid tiers. It seems weird to go cloud based but sell it as stand-alone.
I have no idea how to use it. I clicked around in the grid and I really liked what I heard! I'd definitely use this. I am going to have to read through the thread because I am confused as to the development of this tool.

Re: the figure of $200 that keeps gettng cited as the cost of Emvoice One...
it seems to be based on this post from the developer:
By comparison,
if somebody totally new to Vocaloid wants to buy into the lowest tier of the latest version (V5), itd cost ~$225. Theyd get 4 bundled voices, 2 of which they might not even use bc of the language.
Synthesizer V, another Vocaloid competitor, is $80 for the editor (win/mac/linux, standalone+vst). There's 1 english voice, free for noncommercial projects. Free demo too.
V5 has been out for 9 MONTHS now with no new english voices, so i am REALLY looking forward to trying out Emvoice this weekend

afaik there's been no mention of real prices yet?rodyy wrote: ↑Sun Aug 19, 2018 5:47 pm As for pricing, we understand that lots of users are reluctant to pay $200 upfront for a cloud-based instrument, especially from a new company. So we'll offer our voices either in a pure subscription model (monthly fee), or a rent-to-own model, I'm not sure yet.

We chose this cloud-based solution because we want to give our users instant access to dozens of voices, each of which weighs many, many Gb. Create a song, then try it with 10 different voices. Or switch to a big, custom vocal ensemble to see how it sounds.
On our side, it prevents piracy which will help us offer our tech at a reasonable cost. There are many years of research and development going in there.
If you have issues, you can check the help menu > about, or send us an email (support) with your OS and DAW version number. You need 10.12 at least. Hope this helps.
Also we're not sure about pricing yet, stay tuned!

The plugin is so small that it will take you less than a minute to download AND install. There's no harm in trying
