Dr. Presson demonstrates this futuristic device from the '70s.

EDIT: a lot of people have written in asking what exactly my vocoder setup is. Well that's your classic Roland SVC-350, and I'm using a Kurzweil K2600 with the basic jar-of-wasps analog brass sound as the driver. The vocal mic has no pre-processing whatsoever, I just plugged it directly into the vocoder.

  • @sportssox10 Like shooting water in a barrel!

  • @MithranArkanere Actually a COMPUTER synthesizes speech, and I know this is a vocoder because it says ROLAND SVC-350 VOCODER right on it.

  • @NucleonTrance Are you calling me a homosexual or a loaf of bread? Get your parent's permission next time before using the computer, Junior!

  • A ring-modulator is what the Daleks use, and sounds the least harmonic.

    A talk-box has a "twangy" sound to it.

    Auto-Tune sounds like you're underwater (it makes a "bubbly" sound).

    A vocoder is the one that sounds most like a speaking or singing robot or computer. It is the COOLEST of the voice-modifiers!!! That's how you can tell the difference among them.

  • what a boss!

  • whats the name of the music in the background? :) its awsome

  • I though he said Ho Coder! lol!

  • So cool.. thanks for sharing.

  • Apart from Kenny Everett's demos on his Capital Radio show in the seventies, Dr Presson's demo is the most effective I've ever seen! Well done Doc.

  • @douro20 The EMS V1000 V2000 and V3000 have ranged at that price yes,,, When I say "EMS Vocoder" Im talking about EMS Vocoder 5000 aka EMS "The BIG one"
