Tech Spotlight
Vocoder - Vocal Resynthesizer
From Softube.com: A fun-to-use MIDI-controlled effect with an inspiring workflow and Softube-quality sound. Featuring a six-voice polyphonic carrier synth with four selectable waveforms. Great for vintage vocoder sounds as well as creative experimentation . Developed by Bell Labs and used by the military to obscure voiced messages during World War II, the vocoder has had a clandestine foothold in music culture since the 1970s. With subtlety, or not, the vocoder appears on a parade of favorites from Electric Light Orchestra, Imogen Heap, Daft Punk, Herbie Hancock, Kraftwerk, Beastie Boys, Laurie Anderson, Kanye West, Mogwai, and more. Softube Vocoder delivers the sensations of vintage machines with Softube sound quality and workflow. A built-in six-voice carrier synth with MIDI capability and an easy-to-use Attack Hold Decay Envelope, plus a visionary Freeze section, mean that you’re in for an array of sonic spectacle and revelry.
