According to Crypton, because professional singers refused to provide singing data, in fear that the software might create their singing voice's clones, Crypton changed their focus from imitating certain singers to creating characteristic vocals. The programmed vocals are designed to sound like an idol singer from the future. The series is intended for professional musicians as well as light computer music users. The software can change the stress of the pronunciations, add effects such as vibrato, or change the dynamics and tone of the voice. A piano roll type interface is used to input the melody and the lyrics can be entered on each note. To create a song, the user must input the melody and lyrics. Developed by Crypton Future Media, it utilizes Yamaha's Vocaloid2 technology with specially recorded vocals of voice actors. The Character Vocal Series is a computer music program that synthesizes singing in Japanese. Vocaloid is a singing synthesizer application software developed by the Yamaha Corporation that enables users to synthesize singing by typing in lyrics and melody.
