Vocoding in a New Dimension
Powered by an extremely high-resolution FFT spectral engine, VOKATOR defines a new
standard for vocoding transparency, detail, and smoothness. Not just an exceptional
vocoder, VOKATOR is also a sophisticated synthesizer, a granular sampler, and a virtual
sound-fusion laboratory. Offering multiple modes of operation, VOKATOR opens vast new
worlds of sound-design possibilities.

The Vocoding Engine
 |
VOKATOR’s FFT spectral
engine is a milestone in vocoder development. Previous vocoders used eight, sixteen,
twenty, or even thirty-two frequency bands – the more frequency bands, the smoother
and creamier the effect.
|
|
Unlike its predecessors, VOKATOR’s
advanced engine uses 1024 bands. In addition to its stunningly transparent,
full-resolution operation, VOKATOR’s bands can even be grouped together for a
convincing vintage-vocoder emulation. To ensure optimal dynamic range across the frequency
spectrum, an integrated multi-band compressor balances the levels of all bands.
|
Fully Configurable Design
A pair of vocoding channels can either be spectrally combined or played independently.
Channel A can be switched between an integrated file player or external input A, while
Channel B can be set to a full-featured synthesizer, a time-stretching granular sampler,
or external input B. For a traditional vocoder effect, the frequency spectrum of the
external input would be controlled by the synthesizer, but VOKATOR’s capabilities are
much more advanced than simple vocoding.

Diverse Sound Sources
VOKATOR is both an effect plug-in and a vocoder-based synthesizer. Its synthesizer
features an advanced dual-oscillator design with dynamic preset morphing controlled by the
modulation wheel. VOKATOR’s granular sampler can independently control a
sample’s pitch and time. A full range of modulators – step sequencers, envelope
followers, LFOs, and more – can be easily routed to any of the synthesizer’s or
sampler’s parameters.
