They mentioned in the hour ong presentation that in V1 there are three ways to change pitch. I believe there is one simplier but more powerful way in V2.

I’d need to watch the presentation again.

I’m wondering if it’s worth buying V1 voices from Dreamtonics now and using the ā€˜already used’ upgrade coupon to upgrade them to V2 as V1 are cheaper on AHS???

Any thoughts…

Is it March 21 yet? It’s going to be a long month.

I just tried this - originally I bought the ā€˜upgrade all’ voucher and applied it to the 5 voices I had, then I bought the missing sixth voice, but couldn’t see a way to upgrade this one. There isn’t an unused ā€˜slot’, the voucher doesn’t appear on my list of purchased products and the sixth voice wasn’t automatically updated so I’ve sent a message to support. Let’s see what comes back and how long it takes.

Eclipsedsounds voicebanks pre-orders:
Upgrade for Solaria II, SAROS II, ASTERIAN II : 20$ each
And NYL II: 5$

And bundle prices:
Upgrade 2 vocals for $35, and 3 vocals for $50 (not including NYL II)

Pricing seems reasonable.
I guess NYL is not a ery succesful VB, hence the lower price?
I think they are doing tte right thing. At 20$, I wouldnt upgrade her, at only 5$, I might, not sure.

@perrygoround

Nyl is a very NEW voice! He’s certainly of a comparative quality to the other voices offered by Eclipse Sounds.

I’m only into a few months of my Synth V journey, but I haven’t yet found a use for NYL. I bought NYL shortly after Solaria, hopefully as a huskier alternative, but found it to be really … dunno, hard to listen to.

I too wasn’t going to upgrade NYL but for $5 it would be rude not to to at least explore the new version :wink:

You have a point, it might rude to ask for money again for such a new voice. Maybe that is the reason. But I can’t help but think that NYL is the least popular of their VBs (being the newest might also be playing a role).

Who knows, but being new he hasn’t had time to establish himself yet… watch that space as they say - :grin:

Play around with the gender slider - you may prefer a different setting :wink:

Move to the right for a more masculine sound.

You can also use the tone shift slider

Move to the left for less of a nasal quality.

IE Gender right + Tone Shift left for a better male sound…

Good News!

You can now reapply your upgrade all voices voucher to new V1 ones purchased since you applied the voucher. So if you are thinking of buying more, but not just yet you won’t have to spend the full amount on upgrading the others… I think !!!

I had 5 - bought a voucher for all and upgraded these, then bought another and tried to reapply the voucher but it wouldn’t saying I’d already used it. Wrote to Dreamtonics, they haven’t replied (maybe they will tomorrow?), but trying the same again today and it worked - the new voice was offered for upgrade.

Hope that makes sense ???

@Bobox thanks for the tips on using NYL. Tried them out quickly and it does look as though I need to be more ā€˜assertive’ with the NYL settings to get the best out of him/her.

Solaria on the other hand has responded very well to the slightest of tweaks to tension and tone to improve the sound.

I was adding my products to the Dreamtonics page so I can update them, but I can’t see the way to do so with Mai. Is it possible or she can not be updated as a regular, payed for, VB?

When you purchase version 2 of SynthV, you will have the choice (March 21st):

Synthesizer V Studio 2 Pro includes a complimentary voice which can be chosen from the following options:

  • Mai 2: The upgraded version of Mai, the Japanese female voice bundled with Synthesizer V Studio Pro version 1.
  • Liam: Dreamtonics’ new male classic Pop/Rock voice native in English.
  • Mo Xu: Dreamtonics’ new female R&B voice native in Mandarin.

As mentioned there: announcing-synthesizer-v-studio-2-pro

I guess a free compatibility version 1 will also be available for Synth V2.

Yeah, I just preordered V2, but I guess we won“t be able to select the free voice until it is released.

Mai will become visible on SV1 accounts and can be upgraded along with other voices shortly before the official release on 21st March so I recall reading.

This means for me, it’s best to use my upgrade all voices on Mai and opt for Liam 2.

I’m really getting excited now !

OK, lets see. I will wait and hold on my upgrade in case she shows up. I own 5 Dreamtonics VBs apart from Mai, so I could ger her upgraded for free if I could add her to my account before upgrading, and ootimg for the 5 or more VBs pricing.
For my V2 voice, I would like rather choose Liam.
