FBVC

FBVC models a vintage vocoder approach for imposing one signal’s spectral movement on another. It is useful for robot-like vocals, articulated synthesizer parts and experimental speech processing. A vocoder needs appropriate carrier and modulator routing, so consult the manual before assuming it behaves like an ordinary insert effect. Clear source articulation can make the processed result easier to understand.

For a reusable production setup, save the patch with the session and note any external content it depends on. This makes it easier to reopen the arrangement on another machine.
