This devices needs only a microphone (or a voice track)connected to the "VOICE" input, and a connected MIDI keyboard. (no external synth or whatever) It is "automatic drive like".
Try the presets, with one mono voice, or polyphonic voices.
(some hidden parameters are in the drawer)
Please, we need your feedback.

Indeed, would be nice to see how other people use it.
Out of the 15 projects i did w voco (Pulsar, Buzz, Reaktor, Hyperprism, Orange, VC-18,...) only a couple of times i had good results, most of the time only short glimpses of the great sound were apparent.
Seems quite hard to keep a 'constant' sound, it tends to be not stable. The least tweaking on the inputs screws it up.
Any tips/projects w midi file out there for Voco Testing? I prefer VocoII for the demo project, cos we all have that one.

I got started on designing a more accurate modulator patch and also did some spectrum analysis to use for vocoderII matrix but work's become pretty busy for me...
I'll get back to it in a week or so... if it kicks ass, I'll be glad to share. Right now, I'm getting clear comprehensive vowels and syllables but it's still not a "singing" voice yet. I'm planning to do some more spectrum analyzing of my singing voice to see how the harmonic content of a voice changes from low>high>falsetto. I'm planning to make 3 modulators and 3 different matrix sets since I think it'll be impossible to combine them all. It's been a while since I've done R&D so I'm looking forward to it.
And by the way, I was pretty disappointed at how little Vocoder III builds upon Vocoder II.. they're pretty much the same thing...
Can't they give just 4 more bands??
Just a little something I found interesting while I was doing internet research on speech synthesis... The Klatt synthesizer (or more like a way of synthesis) uses anywhere from 4 to ?? bandpass filters to simulate a voice.. 4... can you imagine that?? well, it's not just the usual "pulse through formant filter" style, it uses a bunch of other parameters.. Actually, there are so many parameters, it's almost impossible to program it. And unfortunately, I haven't seen any software that converts audio to klatt format so I guess you can give up on that one. Has anyone attempted to use the klatt algorythm on Pulsar??? I don't think it's impossible..
Anyway, I'll keep everyone informed if I make any progress.
