Vocaloid 3 is a singing voice synthesizer and successor to Vocaloid 2 in the Vocaloid series. This version of the software is a much more expansive version, containing many new features, three new languages and many more vocals than past software versions combined. ==History== Vocaloid 3 launched on October 21, 2011, along with several products in Japanese product, the first of its kind. Several studios are providing updates to allow Vocaloid 2 vocal libraries to come over to Vocaloid 3. "Vocalistener" was later released for the new engine, though sold separately. This adjusts parameters iteratively from a user's singing to create natural synthesized singing.〔 〕〔 〕 It supports additional languages including Chinese, Korean, and Spanish. It is also able to use plug-ins for the software itself and switch between normal and "classic" mode for less realistic vocal results. Unlike previous versions, the vocal libraries and main editing software are sold as two separate items. The vocal libraries themselves only contain a "tiny" version of the Vocaloid 3 editing software. Yamaha will also be granting the licensing of plug-ins and use of the Vocaloid software for additional mediums such as video games.〔 〕〔 〕 Also, Vocaloid 3 has Triphone support unlike Vocaloid 2 which improves language capabilities.〔 〕 The first Spanish Vocaloids, Clara and Bruno, were released in 2011.〔 〕 New technology is also being used to bring back the voice of the singer Hitoshi Ueki who died in 2007. This is the first attempt to bring back a singer whose voice had been lost, yet it had been considered a possibility since the software was first released in 2004. However, this is only being done for private use.〔 〕 A second attempt was made with the voice of hide, a member of group X Japan, who died in 1998.〔 〕 The software was given a special version called "Vocaloid Editor for Cubase", this was a special version that would work with the Digital audio workstation. An OS X version of the software called Vocaloid Neo was announced on July 24, 2013. Several voices have since been confirmed for this version of the software.〔 〕 In 2013, the first Catalan vocal project was introduced called "ONA".〔 〕 A series of resource packs called "Vocaloid-P Data series" were also released. A total of 4 volumes were released, the series was retired with the introduction of the SE versions of several vocals.〔 〕 In addition, Vocaloid 3, Vocaloid Neo and i-Vocaloid were later given an update which allowed access to a cloud storage system called "Vocaloid Net". This allowed users to use all 3 versions of the software to access stored files made in any of the 3 software. Vocaloid 3 allowed for more variety of vocals to be produced, including some that Vocaloid 2 could not allow. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Vocaloid 3」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
