Bruno and Clara were finally released on 23th December 2011. However, they were only able to be bought via download and buyers had to use a non-free e-mail account to purchase them. This was to prevent credit card fraud, the problem was not Voctro Labs, but rather the retail seller Share-it's rules for sale. They come without the full editor, but could be bought together or separately. Their joint package made them the cheapest of the Vocaloid 3 voicebanks, despite the user having to purchase the full Vocaloid 3 editor separately.

 * Voice library Bruno + Clara

Marketing
Clara and Bruno are aimed at Spanish music professionals and the first Vocaloids aimed at the Spanish culture. They do not incorporate the moe-esque style of the Japanese Vocaloids and their designs are more aimed towards a retrospective European art style.

Competition
Clara and Bruno have a fanart competition right now. The contest is being done as a response to the disappointment in the artwork from anime fans. The winners were announced on the 19th of December.

Facebook
Clara and Bruno have a official Facebook page.

Clara
Clara, like her counterpart Bruno, has some Castillian accent which is noticed in the addition of the phoneme [T] and the realization of the [s] phoneme, which has certain "whistling" or SH-like quality. However this ones isn't so heavy, which allows achieve a more neutral accent in case of be required.

Popularity
Clara has had a backlash based on her illustration, mainly for lacking an anime-like design or referred to as not having the appearance of a Vocaloid, with some going so far as to label Clara and Bruno as "ugly"; however, within the Spanish fandom there have been reports of strong defense from fans of the pair and Vocaloid. The voice type itself; however, has been noted to be appealing in general despite the issues some fans have had for the boxart.

By March 2012, Bruno and Clara were amongst the least popular of the Vocaloid 3 voicebanks, though together they are more popular then Tonio, neither suprassed his popularity when weighed in seperately.
