Carrier input
Here you have to select the desired carrier sample. Some special carrier
samples that have been loaded automatically from the "Vocoder" directory are
listed.
Use the "Carrier sample" check box to load any number of samples of the
current project or predefined carrier sample.
Here you can play the carrier on its own for test purposes.
Noise: This controller lets you add noise to the carrier sample. This makes
sense if the carrier material can not be modulated sufficiently or is irregular. It's
good for "filling" drum loops which have too many pauses between the beats.
Material containing all frequencies in equal amounts are particularly suitable,
such as strings, orchestra chords, broad synthesizer pads, hissing, or wind
noise.

Dynam: Influences the dynamics of the modulator signal to reduce the
modulation depth of the vocoder.
This prevents two often undesired side effects of modulation. On the one hand,
the volume change of the modulator signal is added to the output signal in a
slightly more moderate form which may improve the power of the vocoder
voice. On the other, the low-level share of the modulator signal is ignored in
order to prevent modulation of the carrier by breathing or noise.
Smooth: Affects the speed at which the vocoder adjusts to the modulator
spectrum. The greater the value, the "lazier" the vocoder follows the modulator
and the "smoother" the sound changes in the carrier sound.

Any frequency characteristic can be drawn in to optimize the results of the
vocoder. For example, simple disturbing bass frequencies can be eliminated as
