Synthesizer V Production Release Available Now!

Back in August, we reported on the Technical Preview for Synthesizer V, and now, Synthesizer V’s Production Release is available for download!

For those of you who do not know, Synthesizer V is a new voice synthesizer software developed by Kanru Hua.

The Production Release is free to download and is currently only available for Windows, with a Linux and MacOS version in the future, but a license must be purchased for commercial use. The price of the commercial license is $79 and is permanent, so commercial users only have to purchase it once.

UPDATE: Linux version is now available!

Read on to find out more about the new features and voices which have been added to Synthesizer V since our last article.

New Features

Since the Technical Preview, new features have been added to Synthesizer V such as:

  • Multi-track and VSTi Support
  • Drawing pitch curves on the piano roll
  • Growl and other custom vocal effects
  • New voicebanks, including a remaster of Eleanor Forte

New Voices

The Technical Preview introduced Eleanor Forte as the first English voice for Synthesizer V. There are now three new voices available: Aiko, Genbu and Yamine Renri.

You can find out more about each of them below.

Aiko

Aiko is the first Chinese female voice for Synthesizer V.

Her character is described as ‘enthusiastic about everything’. Although she can be careless, she won’t feel down in times of trouble and is happy to make a little progress every day.

Her bio also says that magical power resides in her dip pen styled headpiece and the large bow she wears in her hair, colour.(#FDD000). It has been said that the magic earphones can hear all forms of sound in this world.

Aiko was illustrated by KAWORU and LAM.

Genbu

Genbu is the first Japanese male voice for Synthesizer V. His profile says that he may appear a bit unpolished on the outside, often being seen as rude and impudent, but he actually cares deeply about those surrounding him. He has a somewhat weak personality, resembling his calm and soothing voice.

Genbu was illustrated by onidaruman.
