Footnotes:
The Kempelen Speaking Machine is another voice synthesizer created by Wolfgang von Kempelen a few years after Kratzenstein, which uses similar elements but is better documented
Timbre and tone have many different definitions in music/math/psychology but we're using the purely mathematical definition according to H. Kenmochi in "VOCALOID – Commercial singing synthesizer based on sample concatenation"
The newest versions (V5) of Crypton Future Media's vocaloids such as Hatsune Miku are released on Crypton's own software, Piapro Studio
Jinriki voicebanks are Utauloids that use samples from popular media (e.g. Bernie Sanders, SpongeBob) without permission from the voice provider. These voicebanks may be used for personal covers but distribution is illegal
Other types of voicebanks for UTAU include VCCV
Voicebanks would often record the same sounds in many different pitches to prevent having to shift the pitch of a sound too much
Synthesizer V Studio or SynthV Studio is a singing synthesis software released in 2020 using a hybrid AI/sample concatenation synthesis engine that has been gaining popularity in recent years
