Moog Voyager meets Electro-Harmonix Vocoder
Check out this setup. When using the Voyager’s Mixer Out/Filter In jack with a vocoder like this, the vocoder’s mic input becomes a portal for injecting rhythm into your Voyager patches. When that rhythm is MIDI Clock Synced, things get really fun, really fast.

AtomoSynth Krakken Radioactivity cover
Hello this is our version of Kraftwerk`s Radioactivity using 2 AtomoSynth krakken keyboards one of them with an Electro Harmonix vocoder, also a krakken module for the sound effects, drums and bass with Fruity loops, recorded on analog tape with a Tascam porta07
Thanks to Karin Arakaki.

Matrix – the ultimate vocoder?
Inspired by the legendary VSM 201 Vocoder from Sennheiser we´ve spent MATRIX an additional Filter module modelling the analog Sound of the VSM. But to make it even better we´ve extended the filter range by adding two additional filters for the high end and MATRIX got two Filterbanks for stereo operation. MATRIX 2 also comes with a redesigned user interface, some additional presets and we´ve spent an internal noise generator for whisper effects.
The Vocoder was invented by Homer Dudley in the mid-30’s of the last century. Dudley worked at Bell Laboratories, and this is where the first Vocoder took shape.
The basic function of a Vocoder is characterized by an analysis of the input signal, usually speech but other type of inputs can also be very interesting. In a special filter bank, a spectral analysis is performed and signals are developed which follows the amount of spectral energy in each channel. What makes MATRIX 2 different to the vocoders in the past ?
– Precise analog modelling 8-pole filters and extremely fast envelope followers for unprecedented resynthesis quality.
– New voiced/unvoiced detection and pitch extraction algorithms for high intelligibility.
– Stereophonic synthesis filter bank preserves the spatial characteristic of the replacement signal.
– Easy to use interface.
– Latency free operation.

Demo of the Roland VP-330 MKII Vocoder
Demo of working VP-330 features. No Processing FX or processing. Note that my gain staging to the video capture device was not perfect so there is some amplified whine during quiet passages. The whine originates in the video gear and is not present in the audio output of the VP-330.

…the new teaser from System’s upcoming album
System-Pitch Black by ProgressProductions
As reporeted earlier this week System are back with a new album
– It has been taken to a point where you no longer can tell if it is a human machine or a robotic human singing, System says.
Dupont and The Pain Machinery have made remixes for the limited edition of the album which also will, for the first time, feature a song with vocals – real vocals that is.
Singing like a robot
How to use a Vocoder (Robot singing)
This video explains how to create the robot voice sound using the Vocoder in Ableton Live, as well as a bit of a run down of how Vocoders work. This is part of my latest sound design series on Vocal effects. www.cosm.co.nz
The software I used is from www.photosounder.com
Vocoders are complex machines
Vocoders are complex machines but working with a simple principle. They take two inputs, put them through filterbanks and apply the envelopes of one input and applies it on the amplitude of the other. Thus the frequency spectrum of one signal is imparted on the other but only if that signal contains those frequencies. Usually vocoders sport filterbanks with at least 10 filters in each, expensive if you want to do it with a modular. This demo shows that you can make quite an efficient vocoder using just one filter each for carrier and modulator!
