Does anybody have the problem that NYL sounds a bit ‘electric’?
The same problem applies to GALENAIA (a little) but she’s way better.

NYL I and NYL II are both huge disappointments for me - I haven’t been able to get a useful track out of either of those voices 
Actually NYL’s a good voicebank, but it was not until recently that I noticed this, and I immediately e-mailed ES, waiting for their reply. I don’t want to be mad at those AIs. I just want to get this over with.
Probably me just not finding the right environment for NYL. Hope you get a response.
Could you clarify what “electric” means?
My initial thought is that the vocal might be turned up to high, so it’s getting clipped. This can happen in SynthV without warning.

My apologies for not clarifying my problem better! It sounds not like a clip thing.I tried reducing loudness and vocal modes and a lot of parameters and sometime even reset the whole NYL settings, but it was still no use. I dunno how to send an audio here, and I don’t know how to describe it well. It was like being auto-tuned (and the retune speed was very fast).
Hi, this sounds a bit like my problems with NYL II. Try this; the words that sound faulty, reduce the vibrato so that it "“floats” on the semitone the note is on. This helped in my case. Eclipsed Sounds is aware of the problems so there should be an update coming.

Thank you for your kind advice 
Yeah, It’s EXACTLY NYL 2. It’s just I cannot reduce vibrato due to the cover I’m making. Pity! And also, I think this is a problem that must be solved. I emailed team ES, too. But they went for a vacation so I did not get any reply. It is such a relief to know they are already aware of this. I’ll wait patiently. Thank you anyway! 
I just started my 7-day trial for NYL II today.
Same here. I can fully confirm that NYL II seems to have a general problem. The voice doesn’t even sound “funny” anymore to me, it appears to be “faulty” all the way. Even when using its voice defaults, it’s already sounding more than strange to me, and it also doesn’t get any better when you start tweaking the voice parameters, trying to improve the audible results.
In total I’m owning 11 Dreamtonics generation II voices and one from Eclipsed Sounds. I like all of them so far. I’ve also tried dozens of additional voices in the meantime, but NYL II from Eclipsed Sounds seems to be the only 2.00 voice which really seems to have an issue. It’s good to hear that Exlipsed Sounds is aware of that issue and they admitted that the current behavior cannot be “by design”.
Some of you have already described what they hear. For me it feels like listening to a defective, classic cassette player where the capstan is already wobbling badly, and there are constantly unexpected glitches, clips, pitch and vibrato jumps just in the middle of each individual note/tone. It simply doesn’t feel “right” or “natural” in any way. It’s like someone would have invented a bad synthetic emulation of a voice generator mimicking a very annoying human voice. Very weird and not usable at all for me.
It’s very commendable that Eclipsed Sounds is at least aware of that problem already. The only kicker with such a situation is that the current “trial” policy is not very user-friendly. After all, a trial can last up to 7 days only, and the product problem surely won’t be fixed within that short time. The consequence is: If there should really be an “update” available someday where that problem is finally fixed - let’s say in version “2.01” - an interested SV 2 user won’t ever get the chance anymore to re-test the “working” product. If this policy won’t change, I guess I will not going to purchase NYL II at all, not even in the future.
Every voice in Version 2 is inferior to version 1. I don’t know what happened, but every single English voice has issues. That’s why I am not upgrading. Hopefully they’ll fix it, but in the meantime, stay with v1 if you can.
@FaveDave I agree, but luckily V1 voices work fine in V2 and sound great …

That’s good news, but unfortunately THEY DO NOT SELL V1 VOICES ANYMORE! It is impossible to get them.
This is very disappointing.
