Sarah will be renamed "Sarah (ALT)" for the reason stated above. 
They will have a few changes, but will still sound no different and be as adorably robotic as ever.
The singing instruments and 7 original human-like voices will still be present. The pencil tool will automatically snap to a visible grid. Also the "undo" function will no longer be broken and the piano roll will have the ability to scale in the time dimension. VocalWriter 3.0 will feature an interface exactly like that of its previous incarnations, but with a more modern feel and look. (It could be touted in Japan as "the true voice of Alt".) Therefore, a new version of VocalWriter released worldwide for both Windows and Mac OS could help raise public awareness of it. However, nobody knows about VocalWriter itself, but rather the Sarah voice, as Seiya Murai's songs featuring VocalWriter are credited to "seiya-murai feat.ALT" after Alt, a character from Pop'n Music whose singing (and speaking!) voice was provided by Sarah. VocalWriter is mildly popular in Japan though, as composer for BEMANI arcade games (like Dance Dance Revolution, Pop'n Music, Beatmania IIDX, etc.) Seiya Murai utilizes VocalWriter's "Sarah" voice in several of his songs. Unfortunately, due to being a program only compatible with old Apple computers and due to its existence being overshadowed by popular Japanese singing synthesizers like VOCALOID, UTAU and AquesTone, VocalWriter is extremely obscure and is not very popular. You can also use pitch bends and portamento effects to make the VocalWriter voices speak. 
You input notes to a song, assign lyrics to the notes, and the voices sing. The voices range from human-like robot voices to "singing instruments" (such as a singing piano, singing trumpet, singing guitar, etc.).
Unlike the original Mac OS Classic (VocalWriter 1.0) and Mac OS X (VocalWriter 2.0) versions of VocalWriter, this new version is fully compatible with versions of Mac OS X later than Snow Leopard (10.6) and with Windows XP, 7, 8, 8.1, and 10.įor those of you who don't know how VocalWriter works, the program allows you to create MIDI songs featuring instruments, drums, and most importantly, robotic voices that sing lyrics. VocalWriter 3.0 is a new version of KAE Labs' VocalWriter singing music synthesizer, which holds the distinction of being the first synth of its kind.
