In music, it is a technique that is often used to create robot style voices. Originally, this technique was used to encode voice for transmissions (vocoder comes from voice encoder). If this modulating signal does not contain frequencies in a specific range, then these frequencies in the carrier are not being let through – hence the output signal will not contain these frequencies. In a vocoder the series of bandpass filters are controlled by the modulating signal. Frequencies outside this range are blocked. See also below for a simple illustration of how a bandpass filter operates:Ī bandpass filter will only let through frequencies between a lower threshold (f1) and a higher threshold (f2). In essence, this is done via a series of bandpass filters - letting through the carrier frequencies that are detected in the modulator and rejecting those that aren’t. Vocoding is the process is letting the frequency spectrum of one sound (the modulator) modulate the frequency spectrum of another sound (the carrier). Fully functional Mvocoder can be trailed for 30 days.FL Studio 9 tutorial explaining the Vocodex plugin Note: this tutorial does not use Sonar, so it would not show you where to set up the side chaining.
Meldaproduction do have an excellent tutorial on how to use Mvocoder. Now I do not have TAL vocoder, but I use Meldaproduction Mvocoder but the principle should be the same. Another way is to add a send from that audio track to the side chain input of the vocoder. Then you create another audio track and then send the output of that track to the side chain input of the vocoder. At this stage, playing the keyboard, you won't hear anything as there is no modulator yet.
Once that's confirmed, activate the vocoder. Before you move the the sent step, bypass the vocoder and then make sure you can hear instrument as you play your keyboard. This can (and probably should) be a simple as a basic sawtooth synth.
What you want to do is place a VST vocoder effect in the effect bin of the track you wish to use as the carrier (This track could also be a simple instrument track). There are many vocoders available, but the common way they work is that you have a carrier and a modulator.
