J.U.M.S. Vocoder 5000

"In this case I always wanted an EMS Vocoder 5000 but it's too expensive so I build one myself from scratch with my own guidelines and ideas based on the little information there is on the web. I've left out the Frequency Shifter for now because my proc can't handle more. I've spent a few hundred hours just tuning the filters since Reaktor's values are _not_ the real measured values. I need to re-do the matrix in a more clever way because the number of modules is still limited in an instrument :/ and I'm as usual at the max. My 3.2Ghz proc is used 90% when running the vocoder stand-alone. Next will be the osc's because they sound/are too 'ideal' and they should have an RC like waveform." Title link takes you there. Samples on site. Via adam s in the comments of this post.

  2. Sadly, the vocoder is a system that actually benefits from this here digital revolution. I was once offered the Moog prototype vocoder, which was roughly the size of a phone booth. Fixed filters, envelope followers, VCA's... Vocoding is the ultimate more-is-more scenario. Tweaking a zillion filters, dialing in a little noise, finding the right curve...these are things you don't want to think about every time you want to hear a Cylon sing "Bicycle Built for Two."

  3. Because of the "no-sharing" policy of this loser it seems that he actually has a pirate copy of Reaktor and/or he is just lying about his skills programming.
