Okay, lets note here that originally there ere only 3 CVs in the series representing how sound travels; when it begins, when it bounces, as it travels.

CV04 was going to be a etra 4th voice to cover the lack of a male vocal in the CV serie s(Len is a female voice despite being a male Vocaloid). What has held him back is several things... First the CFM company had to deal with Miku's unexpected popularity, leading to the creation of the Appends. They then had the Kaito and Meiko updates and Luka Append on the way. They started doing all of this, then V3 came along and basically threw everything they had done out the window. CV04 was likely caught up in the V3 reset.

A similar thing happened in 2010 when the V4 engine began it production and companies either had to finish their V3 products or turn to working on V4 for when its eventual release comes along. And again... We got a reset. This is why out of the CV series only Miku had a V3, a Kagamine and Luka V3 were in production but stopped.

Another factor is that English has been introduced... Which takes a great effort to produce (and CFM is a lazy company who takes short cuts ¬_¬ ).

At this stage, if we get CV04 it will be luck. He is caught up in development hell and may even be canned or on hiatus like Project If... with Miku getting chinese, however, the circle created by the English production of their vocaloid may cause him more delays.

Basically, forget CV04 is a thing for now.
