Hatsune Miku Sings When You Hum and Type

posted on by Bamboo Dong
MIKUTYPE makes creating Vocaloid music even easier!

Generating music with the Hatsune Miku vocaloid software comes with a bit of a steep learning curve, but now with MIKUTYPE, all you need is a keyboard and the ability to hum!

Inspired by the real-time "VOCALOID Keyboard" developed by Yamaha, MIKUTYPE picks up the user's humming from a microphone plugged into the computer, then sings the words typed with the keyboard. The program analyzes the sound picked up through the mic and reflects the inputted notes, allowing glissandos and bends, as well as vibrato.

The program isn't quite completed yet, but the hope is that eventually, the user can input the lyrics ahead of time, and have Miku sing them with the press of a key.

Check out this video here for an example of how it works:
