In this video we explore how to use Spectravox in Vocoder mode to vocode a drum machine.
By using a drum machine (in this video the Roland TR-606) in place of a microphone as the program input to a vocoder, we can map the rhythmic and tonal information of that drum machine on to Spectravox’s carrier oscillator and white noise generator. Spectravox’s Spectral Shift function allows you to move all of the filters up and down while resonance will impart more colorful and metallic tones. In this video we look further at how to use the filter bank patch bay to rearrange the envelope follower outputs and control voltage inputs of the two filter banks inside Spectravox to scramble the frequency spectrum. We also look at how all those inputs and outputs can be combined with the additional patch points on Spectravox for creative and interesting modulation.
