Let’s Have a Blast with Hatsune Miku! [1/2]: Initial Install

Hatsune Miku, the catalyst of the Vocaloid boom, has spread across the globe, achieving an unshakable position and amassing worldwide popularity. In a sense, she is in a league of her own. However, there are still many people who mistake her for an anime character. For this reason, we thought we would go back to the beginning and examine the Vocaloid software “Hatsune Miku”. First, we will explain the software followed by how to install it.

Hatsune Miku is a voice synthesis desktop music (DTM) software that was released in 2007. The name of the character is the same as that of the software. Hatsune Miku is one of the DTM software released in the Vocaloid series. Using the software, fans can create their own songs or use Miku’s voice in existing songs. Hatsune Miku is the second software in the Vocaloid series and the first in the Character Vocal series.

Before you can play with the software, you must first install it. However, it’s worth noting that the disc is not a DVD or Blu-ray, but rather a CD-ROM. Once the CD is read, an instruction screen will appear. From here, all you have to do is follow the instructions on screen to install the software.

Once you finish installing the software, the next step is activating the license. The procedure to do this is a bit different depending on whether you are connected to the internet or not. However, even if you don’t have an internet connection this step can still be done, so don’t worry. All you have to do is input the serial number when the program prompts you. Take note though, the serial number doesn’t correspond to the number on the license registration card, but rather the number on the back of the software package. Once you finish inputting the serial number, you can finally startup the software.

Next time, we will explain how to make Miku sing!
