Looking for lightweight synth for vocoder

[sexhorse]

I'm looking for a synth that can produce bass tones that are sufficiently deep, rich, and textured so as to be useful for driving a vocoder to produce convincing robotic voices.. but which is easy on the DSP.

I've been using Micromoog, but it is somewhat of a DSP hog (I'm typically using 3 voices), and in general I'm not too amazed with the results anyway..

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!

Can you build a suitable one oscillator one in Modular ?

sexhorse,

Maybe the uknow007 will work for you? Use the saw wave and the sub oscillator for some harmonic-rich low tones.

Which vocoder are you using? The vocodizer has a built-in synth.
