Talk:Hatsune Miku V3 English/@comment-4670969-20141011152845/@comment-53539-20141011165704

Her vocal was based on Sweet Ann's so she was a little dated before released. Luka was much worst (on release day, Luka had only half the vocal bank in her package and they had to update her later) so Miku is an improvement over release date Luka.

Naturally, the issue is that a non-native company is making her using non-native speakers. One or the other is already a issue with making good English results, but the combination of both creates a bigger issue then the 1 problem alone. Her voice actress knew pretty much no English before they made Miku English and she has to take lessons for making the vocal. :-/

They have began production on another vocal since, they've released samples, there is much improvement already. I would look out for Luka V3 more then that though, as Luka's English is the highlight of her vocal. Though typically out of every bilingual vocaloid released so far, one of the two vocals has been significantly weaker then the other. Depends on the company making and the provider the vocal is based upon. For the Japanese Vocaloids, this is normally the Japanese that is stronger and the English weaker. For SeeU, her Korean was the forte and Japanese weaker.

Yohioloid is a little stronger in English then Japanese, but was neither a native English nor a native Japanese. He is so far the only oddity.

Eiother way, buying a Japanese Vocaloid is going to be better then SeeU or Yohioloid's Japanese, but likewise bare in Mind English Vocaloid will be naturally more adapt then the Japanese ones at English.

But using a vocal built for a different language (Japanese being used for English is the most notable classic), will produce LQ results then any vocal produced actually for the the language. So Miku English is better English then any of her Japanese vocals. Some people try and BS speak otherwise about the issue, but the wave quality is weaker at the end of the day and the results not so smooth... Plus it takes at least 8 hours typical to make a vocal built for another language speak in the intended language sometimes, where you can do the same results within a hour or two with one built for the language.

The only thing you tend to find is CFM vocaloids had a better audio quality, but at the same time, Miku and the other Character Vocals never produced realistic results. Compared to the likes of Sweet Ann or Prima for English, or even Gackpo or VY1, you shouldn't expect Miku to be the best singer off the bat. That wasn't what sold Miku originally, she was sold as a vocal that just sounded "cute".

Either way, I think CFM is on the case with this one. Enough epople buy into Miku anyway that no matter how crap her vocal was going to be it was sure to sell, which is sad to say...
