History
Edit
2015
Edit
On April 24, 2015, Wat tweeted about a VOCALOID4 update for Hatsune Miku and that it would have repaired phonemes to sound like her V2 voicebank and that other problems in her V3 would be fixed.[1][2]
On August 31, it was officially confirmed that Miku's V4 update would be a V4X title and a demo was released showcasing a voicebank called "Hatsune Miku Original". It was also revealed that Miku's V4X would also contain 2 E.V.E.C. vocals, Soft and Power, though more E.V.E.C. vocals may be planned.
2016
Edit
On March 2, 2016, Wat reported that news on Miku V4X would increase from this month onwards.[3]
On April 15, "Solid Power"'s existence was verified.[4] On April 17, "Solid Power" began production.[5]
Wat tweeted that "Original Power" had a different quality compared to the Kagamine Power voicebanks as it remained "cute" and did not have the same tension caused by their power. Saki Fujita's voice produced good overtones.[6] On April 23, Wat reported that final checks of the Power voice were finished.[7]
In May, the webpage for Miku V4X was changed and it was revealed that she was releasing in the summer of 2016.[8] On May 12, Wat tweeted that Miku Power was about 90% complete.[9]
On June 11, Wat tweeted that Miku Dark's tuning was finishing up.[10] On the 17th, Wat stated that they were adjusting the "WHISPER" vocal for her which would be different than the "SWEET" one.[11] Wat also tweeted that the new voicebank components became 4 varieties: ORIGINAL - POWER, SOLID - POWER, SOFT - WHISPER, and DARK - WHISPER. These voicebanks would produce new pronunciations as a result of having different phonetic data from the standard voicebank.[12] Although the Japanese voicebanks were in 5 varieties, 4 of them (ORIGINAL, SOLID, SOFT, and DARK) were combined and carried new pronunciation. Wat noted that the standard VoiceColor was also included, however, these were a different system than normal.[13]
