Arturia Vocoder V - Synthesizer Plugin

Vocals that sound like synths, synths that sounds like vocals – Bob Moog’s original 1979 16-band voice box did everything from robot speech to rich harmonized textures. Vocoder V adds a built-in analog synth, a dedicated sampler, and cutting-edge FX.

Description

Ultimate Voice Electrifier

Vocoder V is not your standard vocoder. It’s not your standard synthesizer either. This is your new voice-transforming playground. Unlike the traditional vocoder, it combines carrier and modulator - synth and voice analyzer - into one powerful unit.

If you’d prefer not to sing, there’s even a dedicated sampler built in so you can process whatever sounds you want to. Part voice analyzer, part vintage analog synth, part cutting-edge sampler - this might just be the missing piece of your sonic puzzle.

Turn your vocal stems into analog FM basslines; Turn your drum loops into a synth chord sequences; Turn ambient samples into harmonic drones; Anything is possible.

An Essential Sound

Vocoder V takes you back to the origins of a sound that’s defined countless artists and classic albums alike, from Daft Punk’s robot vocals to the infectious ‘Mr Blue Sky

More Than Just a Voice

Go beyond robot vocals to create vowel-like synth sounds, resynthesized samples, or resonant drums from an alien world. Vocoder V exceeds every sonic expectation.

Analog Perfection

Using our exclusive TAE® technology, every component of the classic 16-channel vocoder has been re-engineered in detail to sound & behave just like the original.

Retro, Retrofitted

Vocoder V comes accompanied with a built-in synthesizer module, sample player, and creative enhancements, providing an end-to-end vocoding & resynthesis toolkit.

Make That Robot Rock

Vocoder V is out to give this classic a whole new voice.

Vocals that sound like a synth, a synth that sounds like vocals - Dr. Bob Moog’s original 1979 16-band magic voice box is responsible for some of the most far-out sounds in music history, from robotic speech to rich harmonized textures.

Built-in Synthesis

The original 16-Band Vocoder required an external synthesizer to process your vocal signal. With Vocoder V, it comes included as standard.

Its built-in dedicated synthesizer carrier section behaves like a fully-fledged synth by itself, giving you everything you need to make the fun, futuristic robot noises that you know and love. Enjoy the warm polyphonic chord sequences, wild frequency-modulated basslines, or noisy blizzard ambiences that you’d expect from a classic analog synth - but uniquely molded into the shape of your vocals or samples. This synth can talk!

Your New Voice

Vocoder V’s patchbay-centered interface will transport your voice wherever you want it to go.

The modulator section is stunning authentic reimagining of the original, letting you sculpt the response of your voice input in detail before it moves along the chain.

Processed drum loops & voices - Hear Vocoder V’s carrier controls shifting and modulating slowly in two contrasting contexts - you can process any sound!

Voice & Synth Levels

Strike your own balance between carrier and modulator volume.

Times

Adjust the attack and release time for all bands.

Frequency Levels

Individually control the level of each frequency band to adjust the finer sonic details.

Bands

Shift continuously up or down the entire range of frequencies to emphasize lower or upper frequencies. Then narrows or expands all bands frequency ranges, from narrow and precise to broad and rich.

Patch Bay

16 bands of analysis & synthesis frequencies, from 50 to 5080Hz, awaiting your patchwork magic, complete with sample & hold and patch bay bypass.

High Freq & Noise Controls

Set the behavior of the high frequency signal; off, switched (with hiss signal), or direct (always active), and balance the level of vocoded signal (buzz) and noise content (hiss).

Go Beyond
Expected

Like we do with all of our instrument emulations, we took this timeless transformer of vocals and tweaked it to meet the needs of the modern producer - open the Advanced Panel to unlock expanded sonic potential.

VOICE CONTROLS

This Panel Is the Gateway to The Inner-Workings of Vocoder V’s Voice Input Detection.

The immediate visual interface gives you real-time feedback on the detected input, with gain & threshold settings to keep everything under control.

Vocal loops with pitch tracking - An incoming vocal signal’s pitch is tracked and accurately followed with the modulator (synth) section, with no additional note input required.

SAMPLER

Not keen on using a mic? You don’t have to be a singer to enjoy a vocoder. Vocoder V comes with an integrated sampler that you can control intuitively with your keyboard or MIDI input without singing a single note.

Choose from a library of included samples, from snappy vocal stems to ambient field recordings. Of course, you can’t have a sampler without being able to load up your own samples too - edit, stretch, and process whatever noise you like with Vocoder V.

In Keyboard mode

You can trigger up to 12 different samples, seamlessly switching between them. Craft intricate glitchy vocal loops, broken beats, or fractured ambiences that ooze analog vibes.

In Cycle mode

Your samples are triggered in sequence, in an order of your choosing. Any time a note is played, a sample is played, regardless of pitch - great for creating random phrases and textures without thinking about your note choice.

GET MODULATED

You’ve got your voice. You’ve got your sampler. You’ve got your synth engine. Now it’s time to stir things up a little.

Vocoder V’s modulation features venture further into cutting-edge territory, with up to 30 possible destinations, elevating its sound far beyond vintage. Not only that, but they’re super easy to program, with envelope follower, LFO, and assignable controls that can each be tweaked or bypassed in an instant.

Envelope Follower

Modulate up to 2 destinations simultaneously with an attack/release envelope for modulation that responds to every hit, stab, or chord.

LFO

6 waveforms to choose from, with per-voice polyphony and retrig, letting you weave movement and randomization in and out as you please.

Assign

6 slots, 5 sources, 30 destinations. Turn Vocoder V into an expressive performance powerhouse that follows every aspect of your musical input.

EFFECTS

Vocoder V’s sounds are already fun, inspiring, and mix-ready from the beginning. But that doesn’t mean you can’t take it one more step further.

3 FX slots let you crush, color, or polish your sound one more time before dropping it into your arrangement. Send your metallic vocals spinning with a classic analog-style phaser, or grind your vowel pads into digital oblivion with a flexible bitcrusher. Series or parallel, you’ve got 11 FX algorithms at your disposal - add the finishing touch to your new voice.
