pandemia: Hii! I've been lurking on UTAU-related forums for years but haven't had the habit of registering accounts until lately. Nice to meet you!

It has been leaked via email to PowerFX that the next iteration of Yamaha's VOCALOID software is supposedly around the corner.
While this is nowhere near official word from Yamaha, I decided to go ahead and create a thread about it, since there's been lots of discussion going on over at VO and UTAForum, and I figured we aught to have a thread ourselves.
It is currently unknown when VOCALOID4 will be released, although according to PowerFX it will be released "soon".
As members of other communities have already noted, this hardly seems plausible, given that VOCALOID3 itself is only three years old. However, news will be held here.
Alright, so if any of you have seen my thread about AH renewing their line-up, I think I have come to a conclusion regarding V4-
it will not be backwards compatible.
I say this for this simple reason- AH has confirmed that they are updating their vocals. Due to the fact that they have been reluctant to do so in the past, I conclude that they are updating their line-up so they don't become obsolete.
Yuzuki Yukari and VY1 are getting updates as well. From what I understand about Yuzuki, she's getting a whisper bank and having her normal one updated. And VY1 is just... VY1 XD
But this is so exciting I can't contain my excitement asdfghjkl;
On another note, I kind of hope they stop using numbers after VOCALOID4. Most of them don't seem to roll off the tongue as easily (I mean, VOCALOID5 and VOCALOID6 just sounds weird), but that's just a personal opinion so I'll shut up now
VY1 will have new vbs as well. From the conference we can see Normal, Natural, Soft, and uhh Whisper? I don't remember. VY1v4 + V4 editor will be released this December

I hope Rion gets an update or appends so then she could get more fans. (Still hoping for an English voicebank)

Oh, I actually didn't see that she was getting new banks, too. Vocaloidism just said she was getting updated. Thanks for the correction!
