What makes a voicebank classic?

For me, anything released from 2008-2013 makes it a classic voicebank. Basically anything from the time utau was still actively worked on. What about you?

More-or-less the same criteria, though more like 2008-2011 by my own subjective standards; I was already active (well, lurking while working on my own UTAU projects) in the community by 2012 so that era felt "new" to me at the time. Also it's hard to think of my own VBs are being "classic".

To me it also has the implication of being at least somewhat well-known for it's era. I wouldn't really call obscure voicebanks that never really gained traction classics, though ones that don't seem to get talked about as much these days might still count if they were at the time.

2008-2009 voicebanks (not characters). Essentially any voicebank that hasn't gotten an update since that time is pretty much a classic. I think (by the standards of how long I've been into UTAU) 2010-2020 voicebanks can be officially considered 'old' if they're still being maintained.
