==History==

She was first announced on May 27, 2016.

In late July, Azureflux reported they were still working on her and were expecting to release her in 2016. More information would likely come in August.<ref>[http://www.vocaloidotaku.net/index.php?/topic/66699-english-alterego-nata/page__view__findpost__p__1358289 VO] NATA development</ref>

In October 2016 some information her demo video "New EP & NATA Update" mentioned that NATA came during a year of Azureflux not doing much in the way of music. He asked that expectations not be too high and that the vocal was an extension of himself and the voice provider. Since she was releasing in 2016, there was hope that more vocals would be released the following year. The development cycle was planned to be 7 months. Nata was due for release in a month or two. In the video, Azureflux played a tone demo which was previously shared with a selective few.
On December 31, the first full demo of NATA was released. It was a cover of a song by Molly Nilsson called The Lonely. In the description of the upload on Azureflux's channel, it was mentioned that NATA would be released following week. <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=shfin0Q9Ucc YouTube]</ref>

She was released on January 11, 2017. This was reported by [https://www.kvraudio.com/news/vocallective-releases-alter-ego-nata---voice-synthesizer-36224 KVR], [http://bedroomproducersblog.com/2017/02/08/vocallective-nata-review-alterego-voice-bank/ BPB] and [http://rekkerd.org/vocallective-releases-nata-voice-bank-for-plogue-alterego/ Rekkerd].

On September 27 2017, it was reported NATA had sold more than 100 copies, which was good news for her.<ref>[http://vocafro.hatenablog.com/entry/2017/10/15/120210 VO] sale amount</ref>

On December 26 2017, it was reported she sold 150 copies.<ref>[http://www.vocaloidotaku.net/index.php?/topic/70832-new-alterego-nata-thread/page__view__findpost__p__1395540 VO] sale amount updated</ref>

On January 22 2018, DariaP in her Twitter account mentions that she was the voice provider of NATA.

===Controversy===
At some point during 2017, new customers buying NATA were told she had became unsupported by Plogue entirely and a 3rd party vocal uninvolved with them at all.  Plogue themselves noted this [https://www.plogue.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=8185 in their own forum].
