Overview
Prima is a virtual female vocalist modelled on the voice of a professional soprano singer. Once Prima is installed into your PC, she will allow you to create synthesized singing with unprecedented quality and remarkable realism. Whether it's soaring leads, harmonies or backing vocals, your virtual singer can aritculate any word from the English language (and other languages too with a little work) and hit any note with perfect accuracy. Since the woman's voice can easily be modified or shaped in many ways, you can be as adventurous and experimental as you want with her. The Prima vocalist will give you high-quality performance every time.

In addition to singing any words or combination of syllables or phonemes you can imagine, Prima will spread any sustained vowel (or voiced consonant) across as many notes as you like, with perfect legato. You can select from several different natural vibrato types and drag and drop your chosen type to any note or notes, controlling the time-position and amount of the vibrato.

This version of Vocaloid includes major improvements in usability and synthesis quality, including a new GUI. The current Vocaloid Editor (score editing tool) has a cool new look with improved user functionality making it easier to use and helps reduce your workload.
Cool features include Note Auditioning - if you press a note, singing with lyrics and pitch will be assigned to the note. It also instantly checks lyrics and notes for you. The control track for controlling timbre is transparent, so you can check two parameters at once. Now you can toggle between Playback and Rendering for each track. By rendering the finished track, you can reduce CPU load in playback (Maximum number of tracks is 16). The intuitive interface also lets you easily specify musical expression (attack and vibrato) with the Expression control feature. Prima's voice is even more realistic and natural sounding than before. The synthesis engine of Vocaloid 2 uses a different signal processing technique from Version 1, creating a clearer and more natural vocal.
Last, but certainly not least, you get realtime keyboard performance (VST Instrument) - written lyrics can be assigned a note by touch of a keyboard, letting you "sing" using a keyboard.
