" The Robot Voice Effect
With this setup, no audio source is required. A microphone connected to the mic input is
sufficient. The following settings are intended as a guide only. Adjust any of the
parameters. Be creative!
Formant Input Select: Mic
Band:
High
Gender: 0
Q: 0
Order: 24
Robot Pitch: Choose a specific pitch or sweep it while you talk
Noise Mix: To taste
Formant Freeze: Off, however turning it on at the end of a word produces
an infinite sustaining vowel.
Effect Mix: 100% wet
Source Kill: Off
" The Classic Vocoder
To achieve a classic vocoder sound, connect a microphone to the Formant input and a
keyboard into the Source input. Select a string pad patch on the keyboard and talk into
the microphone. Set the Effect Mix (wet/dry) control to 100% wet.
This effect works best with “buzzy” sounding synthesizer pads for the Source input and a
mic. Experiment with different vocal sounds such as growls or squeals, or a sustained
“ooooeeeeeeaaaaaa” for example. Single line melodies played on the synth can be “sung”
if you vocalize while playing.
