Internet co ltd confirmed when re-making gumi that to make V3 vocals you do not need to re-hire the vocalist. Triphones, the new feature of V3, can be obtained from the V2 vocal samples.

V2 vocals imported into V3 will lack triphones.

The other thing about re-releasing the vocals is that the vocals will have adjustments to make them more compatible with the V3 engine.

In short, this is NOT just a direct V2 -> V3 import, the samples have triphones and the vocal bank overall has been adjusted.
