Vocorder question

[gerard]

Hi all. Never used a vocorder before. I know you can run a mic thru it can you use ...say a bass, guitar or a keyboard? Also, guess you run line level signals also, right? Thinking about a Paia kit just for s 'n g's, looks pretty cool.

Thanks!

Yep, vocoders aren't just for vocals. Drumtracks work particularly well.

Electro-harmonix has a new vocoder/voice box that looks like it could be quite fun for under $200.

I use a plug in called ELS vocoder that trys to follow in the footsteps of the EMS 5000 vocoder and that gives good cylon.

That said, I think CM music has a cut down version of the flstudio vocoder plug on it's cover disk.
