I’m still learning how to use Synthesizer V Studio Pro. But I would definitely like to have Tagalog voice banks! Filipinos love to sing and there are many who have great voices alright. But it would just be a different experience working with Synth voices. Furthermore, many Filipinos are quite creative and would probably do many great stuff with this software.
I really hope abs cbn (star music) will partnership with dreamtonics for which Filipino singers, famous opm singers, and other filipino vocal synth communities to have a voices databases made in Synthesizer V, that will be possible.
I actually prefer to have a voice database of an unknown singer or someone that is less popular. Maybe Dreamtronics can invite a singer from one of the many Indie local bands/artists in the Philippines… or like you said, maybe had become a winner of a local singing contest of some sort. But the singer has to have a distinct voice when compared to existing Synthesizer V voice banks and should be able to cover both Tagalog & English languages well as a primary requirement. Good thing a lot of Filipinos are quite fluent in English and many do not even have a noticeable local accent.
I’m sure there are many talented Fililpino artists. But really, if getting already popular local singers, my wish would be Armi Millare and/or Rico Blanco. But that’s just my current preference and can definitely change depending on my mood.
