Hello,
I need to come up with a cue that has the robot type Vocorder effect on the vocal, not the over Auto-Tuned (Radio Disney) effect. Sort of like the 80's effect, even if it is corny and outdated!
What's the best way of achieving this without having to buy something I may only use once. I know I've got something in my rig that'll do it but I just don't know what.
Thanks for any help!

There was a way to do this with Virus bur I never tried it
what do you have with a side chain/key input?


please vote for an AIR Vocoder

Can I side chain into Hybrid? (...or one of the AIR VI's?)

Waves Morphoder and the Access Virus are the two that I have that will do it. There is a vocoder in Reason, if you have that.

Eiosis ELS Vocoder is great. Check it out.

orange vocoder works well and is easy to use.

Are these last two recommendations vst only?

The ELS Vocoder is available in VST, AU and RTAS plugin formats for Windows and Mac OS X.

Prosoniq’s Orange Vocoder is now only offered in AU format.

IHTH.

Waves were doing the Morphoder cheap as a single plugin, pretty impressive piece of kit.

Yes, it is!

Having gone pretty deeply into ELS and Orange, I prefer ELS. It's deeper and more flexible. Haven't used Morphoder.
