Vocaloid 1 voices LEON, LOLA & MIRIAM now available by DOWNLOAD, with PRICES REDUCED to only $79.99 each (previously $199.95 each):
VOCALOID LEON

VOCALOID LOLA

VOCALOID MIRIAM

Special download price: only

$79.99 each


(previously only available on CD-ROM at $199.95 each)
LEON, LOLA and MIRIAM are VIRTUAL VOCALISTS for PC (Windows), powered by Yamaha's VOCALOID 1 Singing Synthesis Technology. VOCALOID is a unique kind of instrument that uses the natural tone and articulation of a real human voice as its source, allowing the user to synthesize incredible vocals.

Leon, Lola and Miriam are now available by download for the first time.


Creating your own backing vocals is a realistic proposition - even for complex harmonies and arrangements, and Vocaloid's range of expression tools allow editing and manipulation of the finest nuances. With skill and application you can create unprecedented vocal realism. Or... you can live in the exciting world between human and machine, where Vocaloid can even provide vocals that sound like they were performed by a superhuman virtuoso. Using Vocaloid in this way, as a true hybrid of human voice and synthesizer, the potential for innovation is limited only by your own imagination. Do you simply want Vocaloid to perform your lyrical ideas in a rough form as an aid to your songwriting process? Or will you use its freedom from human limitations to create stunningly innovative and experimental vocal effects?

"Vocaloid is clearly going to be big in the music business. The start of something huge in modern music. Fascinating software which delivers everything it promises!" (MUSIC TECH Magazine, UK, rated 9/10 and MUSIC TECH RECOMMENDED Award).

"Vocaloid would certainly be useful, particularly for backing vocals" (SOUND ON SOUND, UK).

Click HERE for much more detail on these 3 titles, or to purchase them through our Download Shop.

NOTE: Vocaloid is for PC Windows (not Apple Mac compatible). LEON, LOLA and MIRIAM use the earlier Vocaloid 1 engine. Since its first release, the VOCALOID 1 (Version 1) software has been greatly improved: Yamaha provided many enhanced features and improvements in a software update (Version 1.1.2) which is INCLUDED with these downloads.

Recommended System: Windows XP, Pentium 4, 1.7 GHz or faster, 1 GB of RAM or more.
