It was originally sold as an alternative to supplying the full VOCALOID software and was first released with [[KAITO]] and the "KAITO V3" software. The first few versions had a form of the [[w:c:VOCALOID:VOCALOID API|VOCALOID API]] at its core synthesizing process. The software was fully compatible with Studio One, a Digital Audio Workstation created by Presonus.

As it had the VOCALOID API eventually it was able to open up to allow all other VOCALOID from [[w:c:VOCALOID:VOCALOID2|VOCALOID2]], [[w:c:VOCALOID:VOCALOID3|VOCALOID3]] and from Piapro Studio2 onwards, [[w:c:VOCALOID:VOCALOID4|VOCALOID4]] vocals to be loaded. However, originally it was only made for Crypton Future Media Vocaloids.
As of August 31st, 2019, the software has departed from using VOCALOID and will become its own independent software.<ref name="Mikuisleaving1">https://blog.crypton.co.jp/l/2019/08/n1908311/</ref><ref name="Mikuisleaving2">https://twitter.com/labopton/status/1167698329389551616?s=19</ref>

===Piapro Studio===
 
[[file:Shot_ps_meikov3.png|thumb|Piapro Studio with MEIKO V3 loaded]]
 
Piapro Studio was first released with KAITO V3. It was originally supplied as an alternative to VOCALOID3 and allowed the use of KAITOs voicebanks without the need to own VOCALOID3 in addition to the release of his software.
 
 
It used the VOCALOID3 API as its means of synthesising results.
 
 
Initally it was released only for the Crypton Future Media Vocaloids, but was later updated to allow all Vocaloids to enter Piapro Studio.

===Piapro Studio 2===
 
[[file:PiaproStudioV4X.png|thumb|right|Piapro Studio 2, as seen with Megurine Luka V4x]]
 
Piapro Studio 2 was released in conjunction to the VOCALOID4 update. It was first released with Megurine Luka V4X.
 
 
It used the VOCALOID4 API as its means of synthesising results.
 
 
Piapro Studio encountered problems when VOCALOID5 was released. While this did not cause Piapro Studio to cease function, it resulted in Piapro Studio results having to be manually entered in VOCALOID5, rather then being in-putting directly and with ease with VOCALOID4.
 
 
All Japanese voicebank releases had the additional feature "[[E.V.E.C.]]" included. Hatsune Miku was released with a "Standalone" version of the software.

Piapro Studio is a software synthesizer created by Crypton Future Media, Inc.

About

Piapro Studio was created to allow the developers to expand their VOCALOID characters in new directions that VOCALOID limited within its software. It was originally sold as an alternative to supplying the full VOCALOID software and was first released with KAITO and the "KAITO V3" software. The first few versions had a form of the VOCALOID API at its core synthesizing process. The software was fully compatible with Studio One, a Digital Audio Workstation created by Presonus.

As it had the VOCALOID API eventually it was able to open up to allow all other VOCALOID from VOCALOID2, VOCALOID3 and from Piapro Studio2 onwards, VOCALOID4 vocals to be loaded. However, originally it was only made for Crypton Future Media Vocaloids.

In the second version, Piapro Studio for v4x, E.V.E.C. was introduced. This new function was exclusive to specific voicebanks for Hatsune Miku, Megurine Luka and Kagamine Rin & Len for their "V4X" releases.

As of August 31st, 2019, the software has departed from using VOCALOID and is its own independent software.[1][2]
