Lots of things have been happening in the Vocaloid world lately, two new voicebanks have been confirmed for existing Vocaloids.
One of the Vocaloids which is going to receive a new voicebank is none other than MEIKO, the first Japanese female Vocaloid as well as Crypton’s first Vocaloid. Her voicebank isn’t just a regular one though, it has been confirmed by the official Crypton Future Media Twitter account that she will be getting one in this tweet. A translation of the Tweet provided from the Twitter is below.

“We are currently working on giving an English voicebank to Meiko too”
Another voicebank update has also been confirmed for another Vocaloid, Gackpoid (Kamui Gakupo), the first Vocaloid from Internet Co. LTD and also the Vocaloid voiced by famous singer Gackt. He has been confirmed to be getting an Extend like his fellow Internet Co. Vocaloid, GUMI (Megpoid). The first Tweet from Noboru says (translated) “Not just one voicebank :)”, referring to Gackpoid. The second tweet from Noboru states “We’ve already decided (the types of his voicebank). But it’s still secret.”, also referring to Gackpoid.
So what do you guys think of these new voicebanks, are you excited?
