Hatsune Miku: The VOCALOID Pioneer!

What is Hatsune Miku?

Hatsune Miku is both a desktop music (DTM) program, which utilizes speech synthesis for vocal tracks, and a character developed by Crypton Future Media. ... The vocal source that was introduced to the market for the first time on August 31, 2007, is the first software designed for the Japanese language using the "VOCALOID 2" engine. which allows for the synthesis of more natural vocal tracks compared to the previous VOCALOID lineups.

The program and the character are separate objects, so in this case "both" better reflects "および" in the source text. Further, "which allows to" is grammatically incorrect and should be modified as above; other forms are also usable.
