#IMAGE LINE VOCODEX SOFTWARE VOCODER PLUGIN FOR LOGIC PATCH#
Overall, Vocoder V is a 16-channel vocoder with an integrated synth section (dual oscillator with FM, waveshaping, hard sync, fixed frequencies, chord and glide, ensemble), external voice input, pitch tracking, integrated sample player engine (play up to 12 samples, 700+ included, time-stretching), vocoder bands rerouting from patch bay, advanced modulation, 11 effect types, macro controls, and over 250 presets. The vocoder patch bay and modulation section come with vocal and synth level controls, times, frequency levels, bands, patch bay (16 bands of analysis and synthesis frequencies from 50 to 5080 Hz), as well as high freq and noise controls. Vocoder V’s synth controls include hold, oscillator 1 and 2 (with triangle, saw, square, and noise waveforms), envelope controls, expression controls, chord mode, and ensemble (analog-style chorus). The inclusion of the dedicated sampler means you don’t need to sing if you don’t want to – you can instead process a sound of your choosing and explore a variety of sonic possibilities without having to record anything new.įurther, Vocoder V makes it possible to transform vocal stems into analog FM basslines, drum loops into synth chord sequences, ambient samples into harmonic drones, and a great deal more. What makes it especially unique is that it combines carrier and modulator – synth and voice analyzer – into one. If you’re looking to go beyond, and find a vocoder with more modern features, though, you’ll want to check out some of the other options mentioned in this guide.Īrturia’s Vocoder V takes the classic 16-band vocoder and enhances it with an advanced synth, sampler, and modulation features. While there are other contenders for the best overall spot (we thought long and hard about this one), we simply couldn’t deny the overall classic sound characteristics and customizability of the XILS 201 Vocoder, complete with convenient built-in effects. We find this to be a great sounding vocoder with a bit of warm analog flavor. The built-in filter bank, chorus, phaser, delay, and reverbs are well suited to a variety of purposes.Īltogether, the 20-band filter XILS 201 Vocoder comes with per band bypass, addition, and bridging, one internal sound carrier based on one oscillator and noise generator, four effects with their own input routing, automatic input gain control, pitch tracker, external carrier input, MIDI controllable parameters, two filter banks, silence bridging, and more.

That ought to cut down on your vocal chain processing.Īlternatively, XILS 201 Vocoder can be used as a multi-effect on keyboards, strings, and other material. Custom effect routing and order are also possible. If that wasn’t enough, this unit comes with multiple analog modeled effects, including chorus, phaser, delay, and a classic “digital” reverb. This is great for percussive or rhythmic audio material as it will shape the signal gain based on its harmonic content.

The internal analog synthesizer can be used as the carrier, though XILS 201 Vocoder also gives you the flexibility of using any other incoming signal, such as an external synthesizer or another voice.Īlso aboard is a multiband frequency dependent Envelope Follower engine. That’s 10 more frequency bands than the Roland VP-330 had. Both filter banks can process the income signal (in addition to voice, drums, and just about any other signal).

XILS 201 Vocoder features two filter banks with 20 frequency bands. Modeled after a hard to find, and prohibitively expensive hardware vocoder, XILS 201 Vocoder brings intelligibility and sound quality back into the equation.
