"These are very rare to come by these days and have been a little known secret for music producers. No longer manufacturers this is your chance to get your hands on this very versatile and one of the best sounding vocoders out there. Small enough to sit neatly in your studio or even as a foot pedal in your gigs, there is a lot of tweak age available at your finger tips.

This unit is a vocoder where the user can choose 4 different types of internal synthesizers (Saw, Rectified Saw, Square, and Noise). The synthesizer is modulated by one of 5 sources (triangle, sample and hold, triggered, "uncertainty," and tracking) that can all be beat synchronized with the aid of the "Beat Tap" button. There's also a control that allows for setting the frequency of the internal synthesizer. Another great feature of Metavox is that it also allows an external synthesis source to be input and voice-modulated."
