    God I love vocaloid. I could talk about it for hours, I could listen to it for hours, learn about it for hours, exist within this world of possibilities and infinite opportunities and never ending potential for creation for all time.

      I share this exact sentiment! The possibilities for vocaloid are endless! Anyone can be a creator and there are no bounds to art people make with it!

    Miku is absolutely my favorite character ever and she deserve all the worldwide love she gets. My favorite thing about her is just how versatile she is-- anyone can make any song they want with her and there are hundreds of different designs of her, but you can always tell it's miku!! I was never a big vocaloid fan until the last couple years, but listening to vocaloid songs and animations was my favorite pastime when i was growing up. She can be anything you want, and that's something very unique and special to me!

    Thank you for making this video. With vocaloid and hatsune miku being as popular as they are you would think more videos explaining the history, how these virtual idols came to be and how their program and licensing works and such, would exist, but it was rather hard to find one quite honestly. So, thank you

    WORDS TRULY WON’T EVER BE ENOUGH TO DESCRIBE THE RANGE OF FEEL I HAVE FOR VOCALOID. IT’S SUCH A DEEPLY FASCINATING CONCEPT AND WORLD TO ME, AND I’M SO GLAD I’VE BEEN ABLE TO EXPERIENCE IT IN MY LIFETIME. I WELL AND TRULY DO NOT KNOW WHERE I WOULD BE WITHOUT VOCALOID, AS I CONSIDER IT PRETTY MUCH A PART OF MY IDENTITY WITH HOW MUCH IT SHAPED MY TASTES AND LIKES AND HOBBIES. I CONSIDER I OWE HATSUNE MIKU AND YAMAHA AND ALL THESE WONDERFUL ARTISTS AND CREATORS MY LIFE AND I WILL THANK THIS SOFTWARE THIS, THIS COMMUNITY FOR EXISTING TILL THE END OF MY DAYS.

      There is something special about miku I'm always thinking about her as an real human person

    Amazing video! I love how you went through Vocaloid's development history and how you explained the open character license Miku has. A minor correction/explanation for 21:14, in the Vocaloid EULA it states that you have to put the name of the voicebank being used in the work. It doesn't explicitly say the title of the work though and it by no means invalidates your point. I think it's just become common practice to put the VB name in the title specifically. Again, your point still very much stands with how the songs get attributed to the Vocaloid and not the actual artist who made the song. I also think people are more inclined to click on/listen to a song sung by their favorite Vocaloid.
    I am one of those people who was very inspired to create art thanks to Vocaloid, and it's always nice to see people talk about the human part of Vocaloid. If it weren't for Miku, I probably wouldn't have gotten into 3D modeling/animation and music production!

    Technical voice has been invented since 1963, until it gets popular in 2007 by *MIKU* and other CVs (Character Voicebank)

    This video is so well made I was honestly surprised to see how underrated it is. It's a really good introduction to vocaloid for people who don't know much about it ^^

    I think the robotic and ai sounding voice adds a lot of character and uniqueness to the songs where vocal lids are used. People often listen to vocal lid songs specifically for the robotic vocals. At least that’s why I listen to it :)

    They where marketed to wrong people because professionals have access to professional singers. amateurs do not. If not gifted singer recording your self it a pain because how much work goes into try make it fit with the music.. How ever vocaloid would not get good until v3 for English. synth vocals got even better with AI tuning with a program called synth v but it still amateurs make up majority of usa market and its still small. Hate how expensive vocaloid has become and making the hobby expensive. That what I like about synthv it is cheaper.
