So guys, while going on my SC stream, I suddenly saw a clip that was randomly floating on it*..

With the latest hoaxes all around, I kinda had troubles to trust this sample but apparently, it seems this vocaloid sample isn't a hoax....

https://twitter.com/noboru1963/status/651420271786741760

This is how Gumi V4 would likely sound... Your thoughts, your opinions as usual~

(In case this was a really well-made hoax, then that someone lock this thread. But honestly, seems legit to me because i've done searches and seems it's the actual Noburo Murakami who posted both the SC and the tweeti)

I kinda hope if it is real and she has multiple extends that they don't charge too much this time around haha, I like the Internet Co. Vocaloids more than the Crypton ones but when you only have to pay one regular price for many voicebanks and Piapro studio for a Crypton but need to pay like a full price for each and don't get a supplement for Internet Co's then it makes it kinda silly.

(i just want gakupo and gumi to be reasonably priced, cries)

Her product page is up!! She's been slightly re-designed and has a few new extend variations (I'm too excited to sit down and try to read all the Japanese to figure out how they work/were made but there's NativeFat, MellowAdult, PowerFat, NaturalSweet, SoftWhisper).

I don't wanna be mean but....her face always seems so off to me in like...all of her official art....

But other than that I like her new design~ I prefer the ones with the black tights though over the orange and rainbow-y ones. They just seem to balance the design out better to me color-wise.

I'm going to agree with you on that. I think it's just the style, but I'm not to fond of the style myself. It looks like an 80s shoujo style drawing

Wow, she has more extends than V2 miku had appends! I'd like to take a moment and describe how each of them sound to me.

Native+NativeFat are both just the regular Gumi voice, but I think the Fat version has differently pronounced vowels that make it sound "thicker"?

MellowAdult is a deeper voice that is, yes, mellow and soft. Adult has a more neutral level of strength.

Power+PowerFat are like what I said about Native and NativeFat, just with a more powerful tone of course.

NaturalSweet and Sweet actually sound more like... anime voice archetypes? Sweet is a very kawaii high voice while NaturalSweet is just a bit more nasal and clear than Native. They're actually really distinct! They could possibly be an entirely different vocaloids (considering how similar lots of female japanese Vocaloids sound anyway).

Then SoftWhisper and Whisper are the soft ones of the set with SoftWhisper being the softer one. I think it should have been named WhisperSoft and Soft, to be honest.

This is amazingly diverse and I'm so happy to hear all these different extends! Crypton has been a massive disappointment with their decision to get rid of Miku's appends entirely for a very minimal 2-expression EVEC system. Megpoid has really GROWN and there's just SO MUCH potential for lots and lots of expression. It's really beautiful.

10 Voicebanks ?! WHAT ?! The "fat" append is like... Ugly for me, i think i listen a Fat GUMI Singing and with growl, i think she's gonna puke. >.< It's not verry a good idea for me and if it's for beat Luka and others on EVEC... It's stupid.

Woaow, I love it ! Also, is it watercolouuuur or watercolour-inspired ? ♥ (and lol IKr with the face though i think it's the artystyle µ= strangely I like it because that makes Gumi stands out even much more and translates her cheerfulvoice)

NativeFat is interesting, MellowAdult is cool, PowerFat is epic, NaturalSweet sounds really lovely, SoftWhisper is so cute and childish, perfect for soft romantic songs or even ballads (i'd really love to hear Gumi!SoftWhisper cover with galaco now) and then, all other appends still sound as great as in V3 state

Moreover, that makes then Gumi being the vocaloid with the most of banks, original V2 state + appends + English/anylanguage (without counting V3/V4 Native) ? Because yeah, as Adlez said, she has now more appends than Miku had and Miku V2 + appends + English = 9 (not counting V3 appends and V3/V4 core)... Moreover, confirms what I thought at first listening, I hope to hear more of the Fat voicebanks on soul, jazz and pop-rock because it's totally epic ! I love the ton,e and it shares something reminescent of LOLA's voice.. Seriously, Gumi, with all of these banks, will surely be even much more versatile that she used to be, even when she was having only her tiny V2 core

Also, inb4 Gumi x FL-chan pairing makes a come back after having been forgotten

The release date is November 5, and someone on VO asked Noboru on Twitter and he said that her English bank is getting an update "the next time," whenever that is.
