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 phonetics in use.

This was caused by accidents in the construction of the VOCALOID either during the recording process or the VOCALOID development process.Several candidates were tested as possible vocals for the new library. During this process, it was noted that there were many missing sounds or unusual sounds that were not expected to be present.

In the constructed libraries, there were very clear and expressive sounds. The 'Aspiration Problem' that had plagued past English VOCALOIDs was addressed and fixed, which also resolved the complications of sounds not matching the input symbols. They did not address the issue of expressive tones until they recorded the correct sounds for the corresponding phonetic symbol.2013In February, the recording script was rewritten. The aspiration problem was fixed in the new script and the sounds were compacted for easier control over the phonetic data.In March, two more singers were recorded using the new script. The new script was shorter than the previous one and was more difficult for any singer to produce. However, the script's new results sacrificed expression for clarity and mislabeling was gone.

Further tweaks to the scripts were done as recordings went ahead.Once the voicebanks were brought to a reasonable quality, the team working on CYBER DIVA was given the choice between continuing with the current singers or finding a new one. CYBER DIVA was recorded in 6 pitch layers. She has 3 main pitches with an additional 3 sets of vowel pitches or stationaries. They added 231 different triphones per pitch; more than any other English library released before.The vocal was tested by two hired English teachers.

They were hired since over half the team were Japanese. Incorrect sounds that the Japanese members did not detect would be confirmed by the non-Japanese members instead.

Due to the mix of British and American sounds, CYBER DIVA did not always sound good when the dialects were mixed. She included the schwa sound which is not included in all English vocals despite the fact that the phonetic was still used by the voice.
