CYBER DIVA was revealed on the 22nd of January 2015 as an American accent female produced by YAMAHA. She was produced in light of research into common complaints towards past pre-V4 English VOCALOIDs. This included the frustrations that came with the mixed British and American phonetic system the VOCALOID engine used for its English VOCALOIDs. It was also discovered that English VOCALOIDs often did not produce the correct sound to match the phonetic in use and this was caused by accidental construction of the vocal either during the recording process or the vocal development process.
