Thanks, that's my back up plan. I am trying to compare Vocodex with Mvocoder, I downloaded both demos last week, I'm fairly happy with Vocodex, but it didn't quite hit the spot, though this could be my choice of modulator. I am hoping the 3 day thing means will yet see Melda show it again, as it's now shown 2 days in May, and I should have my opinion confirmed today on both demos. I'd prefer to buy from the manufacturer, but failing that I'll take your suggestion.

and its additive resynthesis, while not working quite like a "classic" vocoder, the additive resynthesis provides plenty more sound and performance versatility than any "classic" vocoder signal chain.
 

But can it do a classic vocoded voice. Went through the demos and found no examples. I've liked the idea of additive synthesis since reading about Kawai K5000, but its a different kettle of fish to vocoding, not a matter of better or worse.

I am now assuming Melda's

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

which has takes effect from 0:00 London time. Has gone bonkers, as since posting after 0:00 that it's not on offer but was, is now on offer, with 3 others, so now 4 effects are on offer (not 3)

The 4th is MRotary which has been on 'introductory offer' throughout. But indeed, 2 sets of 3 products appear to have alternated over the first 6 days of May. Perhaps a programming glitch(?).

This thread is cold, but I found it while searching for a vocoder the other day.  I was trying to get one for free or cheap and I wasn't having any luck with Tal or vocovee or any others for that matter.
 
THEN, someone mentioned that REAKTOR from NI has a vocoder.  I own Komplete 7 and I've used REAKTOR for "The Finger".  Well, there isn't much info available on the vocoder in Reaktor, I did find a 4 part video series on Vimeo that was great and extremely complicated.  
 
When i had a minute i opened it up and found it under "Ensemble".
At first i didn't hear anything, but faintly, YES something was happening!
 
I put reaktor as a vsti in the vocal track fx bin.  Then i inserted a midi track and routed it to Reaktor.  recorded some notes and looped the region.  After playing with the knobs in Reaktor, I got the classic vocoder sound i was looking for.
 
DAMN!!!  I've had it for YEARS and i never knew it!  I have many times used Pentagon when this would have been a better fit.   I hate and love it when I find out I had something already :s

There seems quite a lot of demos with the Vocodex, due to FL. I don't understand why more manufactures don't make more of Youtube. Was trying to find out yestrerday what was next on the horizon for AAS, if they were going to release a new string studio (which does need an overhaul) or model a new range, but they seem inept at social media, and the facebook page is hardly worth having.
 
B&H seem to have a the best price on the Vocodex

+1 for vocodex. It's a great sounding vocoder! :)
 
I used it in my interpretation of Kraftwerk's "The Robots". So here's a little demo of how it can sound:

Here I used a sawtooth with some noise as a carrier.

Wanna have fun Use Native Instruments THE MOUTH ....
 
 

wow!
saw some of you mentioned MVocoder so had to check it out.. It's amazing!! I'm purchasing right now!! :O
 
Sounds better to my ears and is more versatile than Vocodex!! And really nice price too! :) Impressive!
