Partially due to lack of internationalization, and partially due to bad design choices. Unfortunately, Crypton Future Media’s website is a bit difficult to navigate. This example card shows one of two sides– the product keys are on the reverse.

Your license keys are found on a yellow-orange card in your software bundle box. Here is the link to English registration.

There is Japanese registration which requires a Japanese mailing address, and there is English registration which is more flexible. I’m also sharing my thoughts because there are a lot of things I think CFM could do better. Here are the steps, and the order in which I think they should be executed. No such standalone exists for English or Japanese versions, but it does for Chinese! This was frustrating at first, but I learned that Piapro Studio is accessible as an audio plugin (VST) in just about any mainstream Digital Audio Workstation (DAW). I was shocked to learn that I couldn’t just run Piapro Studio as a standalone program. To use said soundbanks, I could either use VOCALOID software from Yamaha, or Piapro Studio from Crypton Future Media. Hatsune Miku V4X is just a collection of soundbanks for VOCALOID 4, not a standalone program. These are the things I wish I knew from the beginning, things that I think should have been documented in English and included with the box. I’ve learned quite a bit from the process, so I’m writing down my notes. Once on my old laptop, and once on my new laptop. I’ve since installed the software a few times. I found the installation process to be very frustrating due to the Digital Rights Management (DRM), registration process, and lack of English documentation.

I recently purchased Hatsune Miku V4X from Amazon.
