History

On January 23, 2025, Dreamtonics Co., Ltd. kicked off its participation in the annual NAMM Show, held at the Anaheim Convention Center until the 25th.[1] For people who were unable to attend NAMM 2025 in person, Dreamtonics prepared an exclusive preview video where Kanru Hua showed off a preliminary build of Synthesizer V Studio 2; among the newly-updated voice databases shown as installed on his copy of SVS2, he extensively demonstrated Kevin 2 singing a song and showing several of his new features.[2]

On February 13, Dreamtonics opened pre-orders for Synthesizer V Studio 2 on its international store, as well as pre-orders for Synthesizer V 2 AI versions of all of its signature voice databases, including Kevin 2. The release date was set to March 21. Also, a limited-period campaign was launched that would allow current owners of Dreamtonics' Synthesizer V AI voice databases (like Kevin) to upgrade them to their Synthesizer V 2 AI versions at deep discounts.[3]

On February 20, Kevin 2 received his first full demonstration song featuring a cover of Stir Crazy, one of his last demonstrations used for his previous edition.

Kevin 2 was released on March 21 as expected.

Package details as noted:
This is the Synthesizer V Studio 2 version of Kevin, a masculine English voice database with an American accent. As an AI vocal, this enables him to sound realistic and human-like.

Vocal traits as noted:
  • According to Dreamtonics, Kevin 2 is noted to have a wide range, clear high tones, a powerful voice, and clear pronunciation.
  • He is suitable for powerful tunes.
  • Kevin 2 is able to sing more realistically through changes in volume and breath, further enriching singing details, making each singing unique, and providing creators with more options. Through this mode, he can use AI Retakes to create multiple "takes" of a sung section to find an ideal vocal without the need for "laborious tuning". This feature is only available in the Synthesizer V Studio 2 Pro Editor.
