Judging by the replies I think I might've been misunderstood about "Vocaloid". Think Miku Hatsune - as I understand, it's a wavetable voice synthesizer designed for music instead of speech. (i.e., the computer "sings lyrics").
I was wondering if something like *that* would be too much for a GS (and it wouldn't surprise me if it is, but it would be interesting if it isn't).
