A couple of my friends were offered to make English Vocaloids by someone from VocaTone. Both of them were people who frequently recorded voicebanks for UTAU. And yet the VocaTone guy was fine with it? But as we know, they never finished, because we aren't hearing any announcements of new vocaloids.

Also, apparently the making of a vocaloid isn't as complicated as it had seemed from an earlier comment. They were sent a reclist of words and they just recorded at home with their own microphones. If they had finished I'll assume they would've just sent the recordings to the VocaTone guy to do the rest of it. Actually I think you're refering to a voice cast, not a Vocaloid production.

Voice casting can be common for companies, specially when they're looking for a specific voicestyle.

Vocaloid production is AS COMPLICATED or morethan we all think. And the recording of a voicebank needs more proffesional equipment than just homestudios microphones. Also, Yamaha controling the development is another factor.
