Gackpoid

GACKPOID, a new systhesized voice engine developed by Yamaha, now you synthesize the voice of Gackt into any and all media, changing the voice from masculine, to feminine, and even a 16 person choir. Check site for details.

Doesn't the mascot look prettah? The illustration (so that people do not think the voice is merely a recording of Gackt) is by mangaka Kentarou Miura famous for his BERSERK manga series. The illustrator offered the artwork for free!

I have to say I wasn't real impressed with the demo songs, though I definitely hear the Gacktiness. Maybe they should have selected a demo with more baritone or bass.
And, I'm not clear on how this gadget works. Can you make "Gackt" "sing" a track that's on your computer? Can you save the results? If I could hear even robo-Gackt wrap his golden tonsils around some Lully or "O Fortuna, crescat luna" it might be worth the price.
