In time with the release of the magazine “Gekkayo VOCALOID fan Vol. 4” (a magazine/book hybrid, i.e. “mook”, containing tutorial, interviews, sheet music and other info), a collection of “raw” VOCALOID3 audio from a plethora of sound banks have been uploaded to Nico Nico Douga as well. These are all of the same short song where the vocals were created by directly inputting the notes and syllables into the VOCALOID3 software with no tweaking or tuning involved. Outside of mixing with the backing instruments, the audio for the vocals has not been processed in any other way (e.g. via a compressor or EQ) after synthesis. The sound banks demonstrated were: IA, CUL, Mew, SeeU, VY1V3, Tone Rion, and Yuzuki Yukari. These samples accompany a section in the book that compares these seven sound banks.
