Speech Practice (Hatsune Miku V4X & V2 comparison)

This is a brief comparison between Hatsune Miku's original Vocaloid2 voicebank and her V4X Original voicebank. These are the only two voicebanks I can really compare right now, since I don't have her V2 Appends, nor V3 for that matter.

They definitely sound pretty close to eachother, but not exactly 100%. With the additional use of triphones and fixed vowel transitions that V4X has, you can definitely tell it's a lot smoother by comparison. And while the overall improvements are nice n' all, I will always love her V2 voicebank more.

IDK, I guess that kinda rough, slightly robotic sound of her's just stuck with me a lot throughout my time spent listening to Vocaloid.
Besides, none of these popular songs would even exist had Miku (or Rin, Len, and Luka for that matter!) never been released on V2.

Okay, I think I'm getting way to ahead of myself...I srsly need to chill out.
