AH-Software Announces VOCALOID4 Updates to Catalog
During Yamaha’s product announcement live stream, AH-Software announced VOCALOID4 versions of their VOCALOID2 catalog—Kaai Yuki, Kiyoteru, SFA2 Miki and Nekomura Iroha. Furthermore, a VOCALOID4 version of Yuzuki Yukari is also in progress, featuring a new whisper voice. According to the latest blog post, the VOCALOID4 version of Yuzuki Yukari will have two voice banks—the normal one and a whisper one. The normal bank will essentially be the same as the VOCALOID3 version, but with growl added. The whisper bank is named “On” (“穏”, which means calm in Japanese). A demo snippet as well as a high resolution image are included in that blog post.
The feels.
They come over me like a wave.
Won’t Yuki Kaai’s voice actor be a bit too old to voice her now? I mean, it’s only been about 5 years but I’m sure that she won’t be an elementary school child anymore unless they were incredibly young when she voiced her.
From what I’ve heard, AH Software has said that they’re finding a new voicer for Yuki.
