The pitch of the samples was to be altered by the synthesizer engine and constructed into a keyboard-style instrument within the Vocaloid software.Ĭrypton released Hatsune Miku on August 31, 2007. Those samples all contain a single Japanese phonic that, when strung together, creates full lyrics and phrases. She was created by taking vocal samples from voice actress Saki Fujita at a controlled pitch and tone. She was built using Yamaha's Vocaloid 2 technology, and later updated to newer engine versions. Each had a particular concept and vocal direction. Miku was intended to be the first of a series of Vocaloids called the ' Character Vocal Series' (abbreviated ' CV Series'), which included Kagamine Rin/Len and Megurine Luka. Hatsune Miku was the first Vocaloid developed by Crypton Future Media after they handled the release of the Yamaha vocal Meiko and Kaito. The number 01 can also be seen on her left shoulder in official artwork. The name of the character comes from merging the Japanese words for first ( 初, hatsu), sound ( 音, ne), and future ( ミク, miku), thus meaning 'the first sound of the future', which, along with her code name, refers to her position as the first of Crypton's 'Character Vocal Series' (abbreviated 'CV Series'), preceding Kagamine Rin/Len (code-named CV02) and Megurine Luka (code-named CV03). The voice is modeled from Japanese voice actress Saki Fujita. She was the second Vocaloid sold using the Vocaloid 2 engine and the first Japanese Vocaloid to use the Japanese version of the 2 engine. She also uses Crypton Future Media's Piapro Studio, a standalone singing synthesizer editor. Miku uses Yamaha Corporation's Vocaloid 2, Vocaloid 3, and Vocaloid 4 singing synthesizing technologies. Miku's personification has been marketed as a virtual idol, and has performed at live virtual concerts onstage as an animated projection (rear-cast projection on a specially coated glass screen). Hatsune Miku ( Japanese: 初音ミク), also called Miku Hatsune, and officially code-named CV01, is a Vocaloid software voicebank developed by Crypton Future Media and its official anthropomorphic mascot character, a 16-year-old girl with long, turquoise twintails.
