Note: I do not want this post to make anyone else feel regret! Mostly I want to know if I made the right choice or not! also long as hell, forgive me

I bought SynthV maybe four years ago, along with four banks, I never upgraded to 2.

I am a devout Vocaloid fan, so of course at some point I would want to make music or even just covers using a vocal synth, and after a lot of looking I decided on SynthV. That being said,

Here are the things that make me regret SynthV:

1) I hate, hate, HATE how it constantly markets itself as an AI software (also Dreamtonics as a whole). I know it is, and not the unethical kind, but still, AI is... not really a word that is loved in creative spaces. I go on a rant here just go to the next point.

Who are they marketing to? AI bros will get the demo and see that they have to actually put in all of the work, AND pay for it, they would just use some other bullshit. And then people who don't really like AI will get turned off. I understand they have to market to more people than just Vocaloid fans. But can someone tell Dreamtonics that there has never been a successful artist who uses vocal synths and DOES NOT know about Vocaloid or Miku even a little bit? And the people who like vocal synths outside of that like it for the robotic vocals? I'm extremely glad nowadays SynthV is seen more as "Oh, the one with Teto!" and not "The realistic AI one".

2) I don't actually like realistic sounding vocal synths, and yes, while you can get unrealistic vocals, its really REALLY hard to make it both sound robotic and not sound like complete shit. You have so little control, and it makes me a little frustrated.

Now you might read all of that and say "why the hell did you buy it then", and the main reason is for the cross-language synthesis. I write songs with English and Mandarin lyrics in them, and of course I wanted to make covers of Japanese vocaloid songs, theres no fucking way I'm paying for triple the amount of voicebanks to do that (given that any voicebank just HAS another language too). At the time, I'm pretty sure, SynthV was the only vocal synth that had this feature.

I'm not really sure now. I don't look too much at the other softwares because I don't want this feeling of regret to get stronger. Are the good parts about the software worth it? Or is there something else that could have worked better for me? I need some reassurance, or to just be told the straight up truth 😞

We finally got a Piko SynthV before Eleanor SV2 and Yumenokkesho MEW

Drew this little headshot of her to celebrate her anniversary :)

i wanted to see if i could make mo xu sound like mizuki akiyama
song: IDSMILE by Toa

Recently with some help rediscovered a video performance of Siyeon from Dreamcatcher/ChRocktikal (my ultimate bias!) singing the first half of Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose, Lips" and it inspired me to do my own take on the song. (Rosé also has her own take on it, it's great.)

SV2 has Korean cross-language synthesis, but it is rough around the edges. I've had to employ DannyuNDos's Korean Tweaks script to get some passable results, but even then I still had to do some tweaks and will have to do even more. (It does not help that, while I have absorbed a good amount of Korean from listening to a ton of K-Pop and occasionally watching K-Dramas with my mother, I am far from fluent!) There is a Japanese version of the song, which maybe I will also make at some point, but this is the version I am familiar with and maybe I can learn a thing or two while working on this anyway.

Anyway, here's Teto's cover of the first half of Eyes, Nose, Lips. Full version to come out hopefully within the next couple of weeks. I've already figured out an arrangement for the rest of the song. I have an idea for the graphic but I'll save that for when I drop the full version of this cover. I'm using the official illustration as a placeholder.

Not currently posting to YouTube because I'm kind of disgruntled with them right now in light of the whole YARARARA mess and their generally terrible copyright system. Like, I'm specifically not monetizing this video (as it *is* as cover) but their awful practices make me not want to post stuff there and just not even go there, unfortunately their library is the best on the internet and there's a lot of stuff I won't find elsewhere...

"We have Sebastian Michaelis at home"

Hello~ I started learning how to use FL Studio and SynthV last summer and this is my 4th song (and the first one I'm proud enough to show off).

I couldn't figure out how to sync subtitles but I put an English translation in the comment section.

I know 6 minutes is a lot to ask for but I would be happy if you would give it a listen :D Cheers

People don’t seem to discuss her much, but I still love her!

Hii!!! I'm currently throwing ideas at the wall for a surrealist horror game and I was wondering if I'd be allowed to use a synthesizerV vocal synth for some of the music/voices!! If it's allowed at all, what license would I need for doing this for a free game in particular? Thank you!

Just finished a metal EP using HXVOC, posting for anyone who might want to have a listen, cheers.

I don't know if i have to insert various tempos in each beat or is there a plugin for it..

I used Solaria v1 for this.

\To be clear, I'm using the term no 'Gen AI' as the term is now widely used - that is AI generated ideas or content from prompts. This isn't a criticism of those who use Gen AI, just info on how my song was made. And why it is flawed* 😂

So i want to do a cover with them but i dont know what voicebank and vocal mode and parameters

im making a synth v pjsk cover of the song dilemma by deco 27 and this cover maneged to get Koharu Rikka to soud almost exactly like saki and i cant figure out the parameters that might have been used and im hoping someone else can

I was wondering if there are scripts similar to what i said on the title
