It's easy to say we're in a second golden age of Vocaloid right now. Hundreds of songs are being made per day, small producers (including english and non-english ones) have been getting their moments of fame, old producers are returning to the scene, many beloved voicebanks are getting upgraded while 2ch VIPPERLOIDs are finally getting official voicebanks on commercial engines, if you can't afford VOCALOID there's hundred of synths available (Some are even free!). The fact that this site is so active in an era where imageboards are barely relevant anymore goes to show how many people care about Vocaloid.
But we gotta remember that just 10 years ago things seemed bleak. Producers were quitting, people were saying that Vocaloid was dying, many Vocaloid related websites were shutting down, and there was an overall feeling that Vocaloid was on its last legs.
Things don't last forever. As much as it sucks, this "2nd golden age" of Vocaloid will eventually come to an end and bring us back to where we were 10 years ago. So with that said, when we inevitably return to the "dark times", what do you think will happen and what could save the scene?.

>>24582Yeah, this is good but not really Miku-y. I recall hearing that Miku is in her falsetto range and then extrapolated. So I guess it makes sense that AI wouldn’t capture the essence as it typically might.
