Yamaha Posts New Project Demo on galaco Anniversary
Today happens to be the first anniversary of galaco’s release (as well as Shibasaki Ko’s birthday), and Yamaha has posted a video featuring a beta VOCALOID3 sound bank. This sound bank is a collaboration between Yamaha and Stardust Promotion, the talent management firm to which Shibasaki Ko belongs. The video description states that the sound bank is approximately 60% complete. In a related tweet, Yamaha has also stated that although the current serial codes for galaco are set to expire at the end of October, users should keep those serial codes in a safe place and not lose them.
I was never a fan of the Galaco model. However, this demo sounds markedly better than what I have heard before.
