VOCALOID (Japanese: ボーカロイド) is a singing voice synthesizer developed by Yamaha.
Introduction
It uses synthesizing technology with specially recorded vocals from voice actors or singers. To create a song, the user must input the melody and lyrics.
Name
VOCALOID was created under the name "Daisy", in reference to the song "Daisy Bell", but for copyright reasons, this name was dropped in favor of "Vocaloid".The source of the word "VOCALOID" has 2 kinds of claims:
