Generally, background noise isn't uncommon and has impacted a lot of Vocaloids over time, but I've heard this a lot about the 4. I mean, bare in mind the original Megpoid vocal had a lot.

One theory that I've come up with is their like the Zero-G vocaloids. Z-G don't like to alter the samples beyond pitch correction and a few bits, so they commonly can have issues. Its the most *natural* way of producing vocals as its as raw sounding as you get, but you have to clean them up. Compared to some of the very cleaned up vocals that have turned up over their versions, you can get issues with loss of aspects of the vocal. Fixes to samples sometimes remove a little too much if you don't know what your doing, producing a result thats "too clean" for want of a better word.

On the one hand, the static could be they were made in a hurry or that they *have* been cleaned up. If they are filtered anyway, they may have other issues coming out from having nothing to hide their slight flaws in their results which also can happen.

Without knowing exactly wants going on its hard. Not much has been said about them. It feels like we're back to the days of V1 where nothing was being talked about.
