Vocoder
The Vocoder can apply sound/voice characteristics taken from one
signal source, called the “modulator” and apply this to another source,
called the “carrier”. A typical application of a vocoder is to use a voice
as a modulator and an instrument as a carrier, making the instrument
“talk”. A vocoder works by dividing the source signal (modulator) into
a number of frequency bands. The audio attributes of these frequency
bands can then be used to modulate the carrier.
The Vocoder has a built-in carrier (basically a simple polyphonic syn-
thesizer) but you can also use an external carrier, see page 38.
