Kaito (software)
Kaito (Japanese: カイト) (officially stylized as KAITO) is a Voice Synth developed by Yamaha Corporation for the Vocaloid engine, and distributed by Crypton Future Media. He has performed at live concerts onstage as an animated projection along with Crypton's other Voice Synth characters. His original codename was "TARO" back during "Project Daisy", the predecessor of Vocaloid, and was one of the original four known vocals for the project. His voice provider is Japanese singer Naoto Fūga. He was the fifth and final vocal released for the original Vocaloid software, and the second vocal released in Japanese.
The product's name was invited to be chosen by the public, and "Kaito" was selected from among the applicants, which was Vocaloid producer Shu-tP's offered idea. One of the reasons why his name "Kaito" was selected was because it would be easy for non-Japanese speakers to pronounce, and it looked fitting with the name Meiko when they were put next to one another.
In all releases, Kaito is marketed as the counterpart of Meiko.
Kaito was developed by Yamaha, and distributed by Crypton Future Media. His voice was created by taking vocal samples from his voice provider at a controlled pitch and tone.
A Vocaloid 2 update for Kaito was in development, but was scrapped after it failed to meet the deadline for Vocaloid 2's retirement. A beta version of the vocals was used in Hatsune Miku and Future Stars: Project Mirai. An example of usage of Kaito's unreleased Vocaloid 2 Append vocal is featured in the song "On the Rocks", Composed by veteran Vocaloid music producer OSTER Project. The song also utilizes the unreleased Meiko Append vocal as well. The results are noticeably smoother and more natural sounding compared to the original Kaito vocal. OSTER Project was one of a select few producers who were given access to these vocals.[citation needed]
On February 15, 2013, a new version of Kaito, called Kaito V3, was released for Vocaloid 3 containing four different vocals for Kaito:
A fifth vocal, "Light", was mentioned by Crypton employee and lead developer Wataru Sasaki (responsible for the creation of the Hatsune Miku software) as one of three experimental vocals whose wavelengths he was playing around with at the time, and had expressed desire to release it at some point in the future. However, as of 2023, the vocal remains unreleased and little is known about it.
Once imported into the engine, the 3 Japanese vocals can access the Vocaloid 4 function Cross-Synthesis (XSY).
