Vocoding Clarity
 

Hi everybody!

I am currently making a song using Virus' vocoder but the final signal coming out is way too blurry(i cant understand what it says when i'm done)

I've tried changing the VOC preset, i changed to a better mic, equalizing...how do i make it clear what i say and still keep the "robot" feel???

Please :oops:

You cant get any kinda of clarity with the Virus vocoder. If you want robotic 80's style vocoding you should maybe check out the Korg MS2000 (hell you get a synth bundled with it too). The Virus vocoder sucks for vocals imho.

Damn cant afford it :(

Know of any vocoding software with clarity?

Or do i need the Ms2000/MicroKorg to do it?

By the way, it is that 80's feel i need, i'm working on a real 80's song :D

NI vokator is one of the best soft vocoder. It has like 1024 bands plus granular and synth capabilities.

Thanks, i actually have that already!

I just forgot all about it :lol:

EDIT:

Okay, i dont have a clue on how to use this...what about the Reason vocoder?

Yup, I second this for sure.

The Virus vocoda was such a disapointment. :cry:

Anyone know where i can get a manual for it?

By the way, would the Korg Wavestation make the 80's sound?

It should be in the box that the software came in. :wink:

Maybe not.

Reason dosn?t support audio in so you have to record what you want to vocode first...

I have no problem with recording it first, i just need to make it really clear what i'm saying without losing the robot voice.

:lol:

Waves Morphoder is pretty fucking cool as well, but at US$1200 for the bundle it comes in Waves can stick it up their arse :)

pity access wont get rid of the vocoda on the c series to make way for the new hypersaw and wavetable oscillators, hey HC? :wink:

cheers

blay

That's for damn sure! :D

SOLVED
 

Thanks you guys for the many good tips but i have now figured how to do it right:

I made a group track in SX, combined the audio out from a softsynth with the audio of me singin(horrible :lol: ), and i put the original steinbeg vocoder insert on the track. Used a little time calibrating the frequencies and **vOiL?**
