MICHELLE and LUCAS are a set of VOCALOIDs developed and distributed by Yamaha Corporation as part of the Silhouette Series. They were included in the version 6.3.1a VOCALOID6 engine update, using VOCALOID:AI technology and were released in February 2024. Both vocalists are English-capable VOCALOIDs.[3]
Their voice providers have not been revealed.
Concept[]
They are the third set of "standard" voices to be released following the second set of vocalists for VOCALOID6, SAKURA, ASAHI, SHION, & TAKU.
Etymology[]
No official information was released regarding why their names were chosen or what they may mean.
Appearance[]
Similar to past Yamaha VOCALOIDs, the two have designs that are left open for interpretation. Rather than having fully illustrated character designs, they were instead represented by black silhouettes with some detail as to how they may look like. Both vocalists have a signature color presented in the background and shadings on their silhouettes: green for MICHELLE and orange for LUCAS.
Both silhouettes depict the characters singing into wireless microphones. MICHELLE has medium-length hair extending down to her shoulders and wears a loose-fitting sweatshirt with rolled-up sleeves. LUCAS has short, slightly-curled hair with bangs pushing out from underneath a beanie hat and is wearing a hooded jacket or sweatshirt. Their facial features are more pronounced compared to previous VOCALOID6 vocal silhouettes, showing defined eyebrows, eyelids, eyelashes, lips and noses.
The silhouettes were illustrated by the Japanese manga artist Kagemaru Himeno.[2]
