"The Mouth" is great.


Yes, I have this......it's very versatile and lots of FUN. Just wanted to see how green the grass is with the MVocoder.....you know...GAS.

Try the demo. It is on sale for a few more hours. Sale ends at at 0:00 London time. It won't go on sale again for at least another day or two. :)
 
At least that is how it has been for the last week. MeldaProduct has a different promotion every month.

What are your impressions on actual useage?



It's a bit early to make any fair assessment other than to say ... a few hours in and ...
 
- I've got it working :)
- There is a learning curve and I still don't fully understand the science behind it.
- For me, yet, it's a bit 'pick a carrier signal then toggle through a bunch of presets until I find a suitable basis for tweaking some knobs'.
- There's a lot more to the product and tools to assist finding those combinations. Gotta work out how to make the most of them.
- Next I'll look into the effects like Whitening and Formant Shift to 'clean up' speech clarity.
- There is also technique to master - timing key strokes to syllables etc.
 
I just had another quick play and had fairly good success on a number of different carrier voices from Rapture (with simply Whitening and Formant Shift tweaks). More to learn though.

You can also use the Pentagon synth:

Best part is that it's included in SONAR.



Oh, sure.  Actually, Craig did a tutorial on using Pentagon I as a vocoder in SOS back in 2010 (where did the time go?).  Here's a link to the article which includes other tips and tricks with vocals: http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/sep10/articles/sonar-notes-0910.htm  (the Pentagon I vocoder is at the end.)
 
Kind regards,

I'm confused by MVELDAs current offer

"May madness triple-discount in progress!
50% off different 3 plugins every 3 days!"

 
I assumed this would mean, when it's picked to be on offer, the offer would stand for 3 days, but the MVocoder was only on offer for one day, yesterday.

I assumed the same. Perhaps I only caught the last day(?). I had been keeping an eye out over the last few weeks and hadn't seen MVocoder on sale.
 
Although it was at JRRshop for $39 - went away for the Melda sale ... but now is back!

I've been watching daily, it was there for just one day. Being that it's a May 3 day special, and it's the third of May, It should still be there, if it had been added at the 1st, but it was added yesterday.

Damn, I'm not getting my head around this 3 day offer thing. MVocoder was listed yesterday, but I was too busy, now it's gone. Looks like its 3 random effects everyday, than every three days.
