Need some help with Rikka's press release

SarielV · 2021 年 2 月 11 日午後 4:41

Is there an english version of this anywhere? I’m trying to figure out why there’s a difference in pricing.

Koharu Rikka (小春六花) is a Japanese voicebank, there is no English version. This year there will be another Tsurumaki Maki (弦巻マキ), which will have an English voicebank, please pay attention.

I might want Rikka, even though she’s Japanese…

I think you misunderstood me. I know Rikka is a Japanese voicebank. I’m looking for the information in the press release in english. I’ve got no problem with using foreign voice banks and bending them to my use ;D

oof, we really need to pay separately for Rikka and Rikka AI?

LinR_PN · 2021 年 2 月 13 日午前 3:31

Understood.

Koharu Rikka is divided into a download version and a boxed version. The download version sells the Standard voicebank and the AI voicebank separately, each at 8,800JPY + tax; the boxed version integrates the two voicebanks (Standard+AI sound library) , But may only be mailed to Japan, the price is 16,800JPY + tax.

There is also a boxed set at the bottom, which contains Synthesizer V Studio Pro and a voicebank redemption code, which can be redeemed for a download version of AHS SynthV voicebank. The price is 18,000JPY + tax. It may also be mailed only to Japan.

Thank you for the info!

I’ll probably just buy AI.

Rikka AI was demoed this morning. AHSoft is holding a promotion where you can potentially win the software for free

If I understood correctly, that contest can only ship to winners in Japan.

The winners have been announced… I wasn’t one XD

Interestingly enough, apparently one of those selected had pirated the program, so he was disqualified.
