Hatsune Miku (Japanese: 初音ミク), sometimes referred to as Miku Hatsune, or Miku for short, is a humanoid persona voiced by a singing synthesizer application developed by Crypton Future Media.

Name

The name of the character comes from merging the Japanese words for first (初 hatsu), sound (音 ne) and future (ミク miku), thus meaning "the first sound from the future", referring to her position as the first of Crypton's "Character Vocal Series."
Her name in Chinese is "初音未来（chū yīn wèi lái）" .
Her codename of "CV01" means "Character Voice 01".

Vocal

Miku's vocal sample is provided by Fujita Saki after considering about nearly 500 vocal samples, because Fujita's voice is "clear and cute"（分かりやすくかわいらしかった）[2]. When recording, Saki speaks at a "cute idol voice". The process took 2 days and 3 hours per day, and the recording context is meaningless combinations of romaji[3]. The demo song produced with the vocal surprised Fujita Saki, and she thought it was "very cute"[3]. In fact, the voice produced with the vocal is not at all similar to Fujita Saki's own voice, though she could imitate it anyway[4].

Versons & Settings

Note: Only official settings are listed here. According to the open attitude of Vocaloid community, Hatsune Miku may have a variety of secondary settings.

V2

Hatsune Miku Append illustrated by Masaki Asai

The official figure of Hatsune Miku(V2) is drawn by KEI. The reason that KEI was chosen is because CRYPTON thinks his drawings "transparent"[2]. She has Aquamarine twintails, and the clothing and the machinery are based on the DX7 synthesizer released in 1983 by YAMAHA[2]. The red characters "01" on her left arm is set to be a QR code(Along with the supplement of her clothes by DIVA serie, the Logo of "01" would also be moved to proper positions or cancelled according to the features of the clothes), while the original setting of her suit is sailor suit but changed to the present design because CRYPTON was not satisfied with that[2].

the library of Hatsune Miku V2 was released on Aug. 31st 2007, and the prize was 15,750 yen, thus the day was defined as Miku's birthday[5]。

Miku's voicebank at the begining suits idol pop and dance music the most, and has a optimum tempo of 70~150 bpm, a range of expertize of A3~E5[6]。

There are at total 3 demo songs: ballade, かくれんぼ and pops. None of the three songs is full verson.

The hair became greener comparing to the V2 version and the sleeves became tighter. The "01" LOGO on her left arm was retained, and the tie became imbedded in the doublet (which in the DIVA version is ON the doublet); the skirt was changed from the short pleated skirt of V2 to one consisting of the extention of the bodice and some fictional ornaments and widgtes attached to it, on the widget at the back of her waist, there is a black wire extending in the shape of tail(which was ignored by some versions of models). She doesn't wear shoes, and has a white foot ring with a "Crypton" logo on her left ankle.
