#FRUITY LOOPS 12 GATE EFFECT SERIES#

FORM - Formant slider, changes the pitch relationship between the Modulator and Vocoded bands, up/down for a more feminine/masculine sound.

Modulator sound - Using some compression on the modulator usually helps sound (and speech in particular) to vocode more clearly.

Gate opens and there is no carrier sound in that band, that part of the 'tonal' character in the vocoded sound will be lost when compared to the original.

Remember, the vocoder acts like a series of gates allowing through those frequencies it detects in the modulator. Some white noise if you need to hear speech (s & t sounds) vocoded more clearly. Pad sounds often make good carriers, you can also try mixing in Carrier sound - The most effective carriers (the sound you hear vocoded) are those covering the whole frequency range.

Single channel muting - Use the Fruity Mute 2 plugin to mute the L and R channels of a 2nd and 3rd mixer track carrying the modulator and carrier respectively then route these to the mixer track with Fruity Vocoder.Use panning - Route the carrier and source Instrument Channels to the Mixer track containing the Fruity Vocoder and pan the Channel Panning knob for the modulator source hard-left and carrier source hard-right.There are several ways to create a modulator/carrier combination in the L/R channels of a Mixer Track: The modulator/carrier channel assignment can be swapped from the MIX section. This means the vocoder can only process a mono input sound, although the output is stereo. Routing: By default, the left channel is the modulator and the right channel is the carrier.

Thus the carrier takes on the characteristics of the modulator sound. The vocoder works by detecting the levels of certain frequency bands and then filtering the carrier. A classical example is having a voice as a modulator and a synth as a carrier, to create the effect of a 'speaking synth'. The sound used for vocoding is called a modulator. The vocoded sound is referred to as a carrier. When a human voice is used to modulate a synthesized chord, for example, it can sound like the synthesizer is talking (a classic robot voice from sci-fi). The vocoder acts like a series of gates allowing through those frequencies it detects in the modulator. Vocoding is the process of using the frequency spectrum of one sound to modulate the same in another. Fruity Vocoder is an advanced real-time vocoder effect with a wide range of adjustable parameters and zero latency.
