Oh yeah, I forgot about The World is Mine. Which reminds me, Project Diva 2nd! ;)

You are right, the composer provides both melody and lyrics. It's basically like a music-mixing program in a way. You spell out the lyrics at different pitches.

Here's a screenshot of how it works (this is the Vocaloid 1 program by the way):

Wow! That definitely looks complicated! I would be completely lost trying to get everything to come out sounding just right...etc. I must say though, I'm watching the 'Live Concert' video and I'm quite impressed. I'm liking what I'm hearing. Is there an album out?

There's no album for the concert as far as I know, but there is a "Vote for the next Blu-Ray Release" promotion going on at the moment and the Miku's Thank You concert is winning by a landslide.

You could still get most of the songs from various places, like here for example.

[Aside] Amazing, my brother has 700+ Vocaloid songs...

It's kinda funny how it got started. Black Rock Shooter had nothing to do with Vocaloids at first. It was all mere coincidence that the two were brought together. <img src="http://www.macrossworld.com/mwf/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" />

[edit] Or... at least I think it was a coincidence.

[edit]Looking up TV Tropes, looks like Kokoro is getting a musical while Daughter of Evil is getting a theater-play.

Maybe I'll link some good Vocaloid music at some point but this, this, you must read this:

Chibi Miku-san (Danbooru link, so nsfw)

It's an extremely adorable 4-panel comic revolving around the life of chibi Miku. I linked the Danbooru site since it's much easier to go through and there are translation notes on a couple of strips that do have dialogue.

If you don't want to go through Danbooru, the artist does have strips 1 to 430 on his website:

BTW, this guy tried to duplicate the concert in his own home:

Homemade hologram ftw! :ph34r:

OMG, the Sheryl Nome & Sharon Apple applications are mind boggling!

People already commented on that during the Miku Fest concert. Scary innit? And Macross had been accurate with their visions on the future of music. Like Lynn Minmay and the whole idol phenomena for example.

Then now, virtual idols.

It is pretty scary that we pretty much have a real-life EVE! God, I live Megazone 23!

Wow... it actually took you two years to reply to that post. :ph34r:

There are multiple gravity wells spread across the Southern US causing unusual time dilations for people living in affected areas... for his perspective, only 2 minutes have passed.

You forgot to mention that it also seems to have a foot fetish, as it likes to talk about stuffing shoes in its mouth every time it makes a post here.

Just saw the HD video of the interview about the concert....

OMFG!!

Macross Plus was way ahead of its time (as most Macross). It was awkward to see a concert of a...a... a.... VIRTUAL IDOL!!! OMFG!!

Shaaaaaroooooon!!!!

Since the site was overhauled, whenever I hit the see the new post button for a thread I've never been to before, it takes me to the first page, and sad to say, I hardly notice the dates of the posts that strikes my fancy when I leave a snarky response for them.

Handy rule of thumb: Just because something pops into your head doesn't mean it's worth posting.

Remember that, and most of your "problems" will be solved. :)
