In August 2014, a service called VOCALOID NET was released. This included a fullscreen view of the editor and a full showcase of the available banks at the time with information such as demos using NetVOCALOID (unreleased at the time) and vocal ranges/recommended tempo and official links to purchase the banks. In the case of 'NEO' and 'SE', some of the previously released VOCALOID3 vocals were re-released with new versions of the 'VOCALOID3 Lite version to match the engine updates.Īround April 2012, YAMAHA showcased a 'Metro'-based user interface for VOCALOID3 in a Windows Developer Days keynote. The Cubase version used any available vocal for the current VOCALOID2 and VOCALOID3 compatible versions.

Likewise, users who owned the Cubase version of the software did not need to buy the regular version of VOCALOID3 or the SE version. Users who owned the original editor did not have to buy the SE edition, as all new content was supplied free of charge from YAMAHA in the VOCALOID STORE. The SE version includes a larger number of Job Plug-ins than the original, all of which were previously downloadable from the YAMAHA website for free. Īdditional versions of the software were also released, including VOCALOID Editor for Cubase (including a 'NEO' version), an updated 'SE' (second edition) version and VOCALOID NEO. Due to its complexity they confirmed that it will be a while before the same can be attempted with an English speaking voice.

YAMAHA's first attempt to revive the voice of a dead singer was realised with Ueki-loid. New languages were prepared in Spanish, Korean, and Chinese along with the Japanese and English VOCALOID line up. YAMAHA also showed great interest in promoting its well established Japanese VOCALOID producer fanbase while expanding the usage of VOCALOID itself. This particular version had a large amount of early promotion, and there was almost as many new voicebanks revealed as there were in the entire VOCALOID2 range. The release date was set for September 2011, however it was held back on several occasions until it was eventually released on October 21, 2011. VOCALOID3 was formally announced mid-2011 at a special invitation only event. In December 2010, the new engine's existence was brought up again by Wat, who questioned if Hatsune Miku's English voicebank would be V2 or V3. during a screening of Miku no Hi Kanshasai 39's Giving Day. VOCALOID3 was first mentioned in September 2010 by Crypton Future Media, Inc.
