With the VOCALOID3 engine coming up, the many companies who are currently releasing voicebanks have begun making plans on how to use the new engine.

Effects: any effect available through the VTS Host/Reverb.

Here are the differences between the different Editors (VOCALOID3/Tiny VOCALOID3): A trial version of the Editor with limited features, called the “Tiny VOCALOID3 Editor”, will instead be shipped with the different voicebanks. It will be sold on VOCALOID STORE, and the price hasn’t been announced yet. However, this awesome new VOCALOID3 Editor will actually be sold separately from the voicebanks, contrary to the previous versions. YAMAHA will also start granting licences for the synthesis engine itself so that it can be used in thing such as PC games for instance. The API of VOCALOID3 will be made public to licensed companies, whilst the technical details about the VOCALOID Job Plugin feature will be made public so that users can develop their own plugins compatible with VOCALOID3 and sell them on the VOCALOID STORE. The price for Vocalistener hasn’t been announced yet. At the moment YAMAHA is developing a VOCALOID Job Plugin version of Vocalistener, and will sell it separately.

This is a function that will allow exterior plugins to control the Editor’s parameters and notes. VOCALOID 3 also features the VOCALOID Job Plugin. He also said that they could confirm it would work well, since they have already developed VocaloWitter (previously iVOCALOID-VY1t), which runs on the iPad and iPhone’s iOS (which is derived from Mac OS X). There is currently no price for the VOCALOID3 editor yet, but they think it will be around 10,000 yen (125 USD).Īlthough VOCALOID3 only works on Windows, Kenmochi said they want to release a Mac version “as soon as possible” because it’s “very important to “. It will support these new languages: Korean, Chinese and Spanish (pinyin input for Chinese and hangul input for Korean possible).However, it won’t be compatible with every one of them, and there may be a price to import some of them.

It will be compatible with VOCALOID2 voicebanks.It will be possible to undo or redo any previous action in the Editor.It will be easier to use: there is an improved interface, with a new display of the different tracks similar to what can be seen on DAW‘s, audio files (for off-vocal tracks for instance) can now be imported, and it will now work as a VST host (it will be possible to add reverb and other effects).The transition between different voice registers (low/high) will be smoother.

It will have better quality audio: longer samples will be used (probably similar to UTAU VCV voicebanks), sibilants such as /s/ will be less “metallic-sounding”, better /w/ sounds, smoother pronunciation including for fast-talking.Here is a list of the features of VOCALOID3:
