Also, it's not necessary, but it's highly recommended you at least have some knowledge of Japanese if you do plan on getting a Japanese Vocaloid eventually. (At the very least, knowledge of the phonetic system.) The bright side of it is you can use romaji in place of kana for inserting lyrics if that isn't your strong point. On the other hand, not knowing enough will limit you when it comes to using them outside of cover songs... unless you just plan on using them to "ooh" or "ahh" somewhere in the music.

BTW, DAW = Digital Audio Workstation. Also, you can find info about FL Studio here. You also might want to check around and look at other DAW software titles to see which one suits both your price range and the features you'd want to have. It's something you might want to consider investing in as well if you're planning on doing your own music.

(And to be honest, I still haven't purchased this or any other one yet, since I only put aside enough to get YOHIOloid. That, and I kinda have some things I need to save up for outside of my hobbies. :-P I've been winging things with Audacity when it comes to audio editing, and a combination of Anvil Studio and SynthFont for MIDI composition. Although they're all free and do the job I need for now, they're very limited compared to FL Studio and other professional software titles.) I see, thank you ^^

Oh... So i can still make songs with out being fluent? That'll work, i'm working on learning Japanese anyways ^^

Wow... There's a lot more to making Vocaloid songs than i thought... Could i use those programs instead? Because i don't think i need professional grade equitment...

Also, and this will sounds stupid, is there a way to learn how to use Vocaloids? I really have no clue how...
