Zdravim vas...
zistil som, ze znamy vocoder, ktory v istom case zaznamenal velky booom v ramci tanecnej popularnej hudby (Cher a pododbne) sa vola ANTARES. Zistil som aj, ze sa da stiahnut, ale je kopa typov Antaresov, a chcem sa spytat ci nahodou niekto z vas nevie, aky ma presne ten dotycny Antares podtitul, resp. aka je verzia.
Dakujem!
Antares vocoder
No pokial ja viem, dany efekt sa nerobi priamo vocoderom (co je syntetizer ovladany a modulovany ludskym hlasom), ale automatickym pitch shifterom. Antares - Auto Tune. Efekt, ktory je urceny hlavne na doladenie zlej intonacie. Ak sa tam to dolaladenie nastavi prilis strmo, preladuje sa to skokom pri kazdej moznej situacii (jemne ohnutie tonu, vibrato...) a to je vlastne ten "Cher efekt"...

konkretne u cher - believe to byl nejaky obskurni kytarovy pedal/vokoder:
"Anyway, the Korg VC10 looks bizarre, but it's great to use if you want to get vocoder effects up and running straight away. You just play the keyboard to provide a vocoder carrier signal, sing into the microphone to produce the modulator signal, and off you go. The only drawback is the synth -- you can't do anything to change the sound, so the effects you can produce are rather limited.
"I played around with the vocals and realised that the vocoder effect could work, but not with the Korg -- the results just weren't clear enough. So instead, I used a Digitech Talker -- a reasonably new piece of kit that looks like an old guitar foot pedal, which I suspect is what it was originally designed for [see review in SOS April '98]. You plug your mic straight into it, and it gives you a vocoder-like effect, but with clarity; it almost sounds like you've got the original voice coming out the other end. I used a tone from the Nord Rack as a carrier signal and sequenced the notes the Nord was playing from Cubase to follow Cher's vocal melody. That gave the vocals that 'stepped' quality that you can hear prominently throughout the track -- but only when I shifted the the Nord's notes back a bit. For some reason, if you track the vocal melody exactly, with the same notes and timing, you hardly get get any audible vocoded effect. But I was messing about with the Nord melody sequence in Cubase and shifted all the notes back a fraction with respect to the vocal. Then you really started to hear it, although even then it was a bit hit-and-miss -- I had to experiment with the timing of each of the notes in the Nord melody sequence to get the best effect. You couldn't hear an effect on all the vocals by any means -- and on others it made the words completely impossible to understand!
