History[]

2023[]

On December 31, 2023, the official Twitter account of the Yumenokessho project tweeted end-of-year greetings, thanking fans for their support for the project. They announced that in 2024, a new character would join the project, and further announcements would be made "around the time when the spring cold eases and the buds begin to bloom".[1] The tweet was met with widespread excitement from fans, sparking speculations about which BanG Dream! character would receive a voice database and which synthesis engine would be used.

2024[]

In an interview published by Sound & Recording magazine on January 12, 2024, when asked about future release plans, Yumenokessho project producer Tsuho Kusumi revealed, "The next two release characters have been decided. We will be able to release information around spring, so please look forward to it!".[2]

On April 25, during a live announcement called Girls Band Party! Station, the silhouettes of HALO and PASTEL were shown, before showcasting their full renders and their reference sheets, announcing both of the characters for the Synthesizer V AI engine.[3][4] However, no release date for either of them was given yet.

On February 13, 2025, new details regarding the Synthesizer V AI Yumenokessho series were revealed. The official announcement confirmed the upcoming release of Synthesizer V 2 AI HALO and PASTEL, along with Synthesizer V 2 AI upgrades for POPY and ROSE.

This feature is only available in the Synthesizer V Studio 2 Pro Editor.
