"This week i am going to start an extensive series of mods on an old Korg VC 10 Vocoder. The Korg VC 10 has a reputation for being flawed in some ways but i think it has a lot of potential despite this. This is the beginning of a series of modifications to make it more useful as an instrument and sound better over all.
Part 1:
1, There’s a quirk in the way the 20 sound generators are treated. Channels 17 to 20 have their carrier input only connected to the Noise source. Performing this mod will increase the speech recognition and add the missing edge to the sound.
2, The bias signal for the sound generator does not affect channels 15 – 20. By routing the bias signal to all the channels you get a brighter and more well defined vocoder output as all the channels will behave together.
3, Replace the IEC jack of course!
To be continued!"
