Classic Vocoder Effects
While you may not need to use a vocoder every day, when you do need one, you need one that sounds awesome and gives you complete sonic control. That's why XILS-lab based the Vocoder 5000 plug-in on the EMS Flagship Vocoder, known as one of the most powerful and versatile analog vocoders ever created. At the heart of any good vocoder is a great filter bank, and XILS-lab's digital filters are among the best we've heard at Sweetwater. The XILS-lab Vocoder 5000 plug-in will deliver whatever vocoder sounds you need, whether you're looking to change the gender of a voice with subtle formant shifts or do a full-on robot voice effect.

If you're seriously into sound design and sonic sculpting, you'll dig the impressive range of controls and parameters the Vocoder 5000 plug-in offers. The powerful matrix patch area lets you connect any band of the analysis filter bank to any band of the synthesis filter bank, and the sidechain input lets you add external audio to the carrier signal. Between the powerful routing and filtering capabilities, the two powerful synth sections each provide two oscillators plus a noise oscillator, two LFOs, and one ADSR envelope. And if all that sounds like gibberish to you, but you still want great vocoding effects, don't worry - the XILS-lab Vocoder 5000 plug-in has plenty of great presets to help you achieve a wide range of effects instantly.
