I think Beethoven, as well as Bach and Mozart, would have loved to have Vocaloid2 to play on next to their piano. Wink

If these songs were released but nobody knew they were Vocaloids, I wonder how well the sales would be? Confused
(You know what, they should do just that - as a social experiment. A new song by an unbeknownst singer, you can do it Japan! Laughing )

And why stop at singing? A decade from now, all the seiyuu will be Vocaloids. Oh the sub and dub wars that would be! Laughing

I'm sorry, but do you know ANYTHING about vocaloids?

You DO realize that these aren't just robots that sing by themselves lulz but INSTRUMENTS used by ACTUAL MUSICIANS?? There is a musician behind EVERY vocaloid piece.

And I wonder if you know anything about music either, about a certain composer who wrote a piece that was nothing but silence. That was considered music too.

Yeah, it's installed on my friend's computer. We just made a 10 second piece. I guess we could consider ourselves musicians. Very Happy

Do you have Vocaloid or Pocaloid?

The one thing I hate about exit tunes is that it focuses on mostly the popular Vocaloids, theres what 24 of them now?

Bingo! Like any musical instrument, the sound quality totally depends on the skill of the player. Wink
