According to a Q&A with producer Masaya Matsuura included in the game's European press kit, Vibri's voice was generated with a Speech Synthesizer developed by NTT Communications, and was used because it was capable of not only vocalizing speech, but also singing. He went on to explain the process:
"When a person speaks, the sound waves are transformed continuously. With NTT's system, each sound is picked up from the Database of tiny waves which [are] connected in order to vocalize. Therefore, the part that analyzes a sentence and puts the sounds together and the Database itself are all very complicated in structure. This system is a standard format in terms of sound synthesizing technology, but Vib-Ribbon successfully integrated this system into the game."
