That would be nice. I tried to apply some myself, just for my own amusement, because I would only post a slightly eq-d vocal for others to work with. Unfortunately Cubase wouldn’t let me apply the vocoder it has on board. I think it may require some outboard computing power which I don’t have.
I’ll have to take that up with my technical adviser.

Honestly this whole concept of a spoken word piece being turned into a piece of music is alien to me. I have no idea how to make a pell that is usable. I know I pitched this one pretty obviously, but if it doesn’t float your boat, leave it on the shore to bask in the sun :-).

I am not too familiar with Cubase’s Vocoder plug-in (I use Vokator myself), but if you put it on an audio track with your voice, it still needs a second signal. You could add a midi track and route its output to the Vocoder plug-in (don’t forget to set the vocoder’s mode to midi or midi+ext). This way you should be able to play your audio through the midi track. I didn’t try it myself, but that’s one way Vokator works and it should be fairly common practice for vocoder fx. I hope this helps. I didn’t want to get too technical, mostly because I don’t know the details myself. ;-) Good luck.

Makes sense to me. I had no idea how vocoders worked. I just want to turn on the effect and have it work :-). I shall consult with my Cubase mentor, but thanks for the explanation, and the rec on the track :-).

Ay up? Im sitting across from the person that taught me that phrase many years ago :-).

You’re funny. Hot bodies … you never spent a summer in Philadelphia, it’s purely a matter of air temperature, I assure you :-).

And no, I never got my club mix of this one ..but I’ve been stunned by what I did get. And yes I do write all my own material. Words are my real tool of trade.

I have posted a few remixes here too. I have high expectations for my next bit of music and nothing has reached that level yet. I am now suffering from computer problems (had to borrow a laptop to reply to you) so what else I can do in the near future is anyone’s guess. Pity too because I found a new mic yesterday and now I’m sinking money into the computer :-(.

Thanks for your comment. I appreciate it a lot.
