Their not cheap being professional software... For a basic set of Vocaloid engine + Vocaloid Vocal library plug-in + software DAW will cost you over $300. Its almost impossible almost to get that money back from Vocaloid if your an overseas producer. Your basically committing to something that may not get you anywhere. Even if it was not the case, there are plenty of clients who won't touch your work if a vocaloid is singing, the big obstacle that holds Vocaloid back in the west. :-/

Unless you know how to produce music, in other words go to college/university, your wasting your time. While its possible to teach yourself how to do things like mixing, you lack the experience to do so.

But still if you want to go ahead, Status lists all the known demos. The Kagamines don't have a demo out but there are other Japanese vocaloid demos out and language-wise all work similarly to each other. Personally I'd start with the only known demo for English in Vocaloid3, Gumi, since a lot of people have this great myth that prevents them using English Vocaloids. Besides, the Kagamine's are due out a English version, consider it a taste of things to come.
