Funny song I agree on all fronts. Any news of Lite versions for any of these new VBs?

Hm… Sounds as if I still have to wait for that gravelly country & roots voice…

Have you tried Solaria set all the way to male with effects added?

Interesting idea! I'll try it.

Now I need to figure out why I need this when I already have Vocaloid.

For me, besides ease of use and good sound quality, I like Dreamtonics/SVS because they are doing a lot of things "right" compared to Yamaha's glacial output and treatment of non-Japanese markets as an afterthought.

• Rapid, ambitious development
• Non-expiring freeware version and voices
• First-party emphasis on realistic voices rather than voice-acted ones
• VST/AU support (VOCALOID's VST was restricted to Cubase for the longest time)
• Multilingual singing, with public statement from developer that they hope to expand the number of languages

In completely unrelated news: In late January 2022--almost four years after release--Yamaha has put out a free 31-day trial of VOCALOID5! For Japanese users, or at least ppl who can read enough Japanese to create an account!

This isn't bad at all.

Will Muxin be available for SV Pro?

Qing Su & Saki sound both great in English
Stardust Infinity coming soon from Quadimension sounds impressive as well

Anybody knows the licence EUA from Quadimension ?
Is it fully royalty free like Solaria & Dreamsonics voicebanks ?

Ridiculously good sounding demo of Kevin by the same person who did the silly one posted earlier:

I did some DeepL translations of all the breaking announcements on Dreamtonics' BiliBili page, checked their Twitter...afaict nope. Sorry, @ZincT.

There's still hope! Quadimension mmmmmight be in the process of making a male voice ("Quaid") that is described as a "villain". Those types are often rough and deep sounding, right?

Will Muxin be available for SV Pro?

Yes, but the real question is whether Quadimension will sell outside China. The official Synthesizer V forum has some helpful posts on using proxy buyers to get Chinese digital goods, so there's always that avenue.

Yeah, that's the stuff!

Some examples of Ryo's Cross-Lingual English. He seems to have more of an accent than other voices, pronunciation sounds a little mushy


This tweet with video says that Ryo's English Cross-Lang is "noisy" and for the example given, I agree. But the overall tone is appealing, I will definitely be buying.

Having heard that other demo posted by @Greenstorm33 and the more "accented" performances from Ryo I'm now leaning more towards Kevin.

Argggh, now I have heard your other posts for Ryo and think I prefer his tone! Never mind, I'll probably end up with both anyway

Thank you for the heads up! It so happens that I'm married to a 'proxy' with Taobao and Wechat accounts…

I'm trying to place an order on the Dreamtonics webiste but I keep getting a Captcha error so it won't complete the order.

I have solved the Captcha and tried different browsers but still no joy. I cannot see any contact details on the website either

Has anyone ordered successfully and if so what did you do?

Thanks

I bought SV Studio Pro and Eleanor at Anicute: www.anicute.com/

I think it's based in Taiwan. Worked just fine!
