string filter bank (was: Re: [sdiy] 40-band vocorder)

[Scott Juskiw]

I used 5 bands for each of the 3 phonemes (oh, ee, ah). Some bands  
were used by more than one phoneme. In addition  to selecting the  
correct bands, you need to set the level for each band for each  
phoneme as well (i.e. two phonemes might have both used the 221 Hz  
output but at different levels). I used the level controls on the  
filter bank to set the levels for one phoneme. I used the patch points  
to send the bands for the other two phonemes to a couple of 6 input  
mixers. I used a sequencer to morph between the 3 phonemes in four  
steps (oh, ee, ah, ee) using EGs and VCAs. I played the notes manually  
on a keyboard as the phonemes were sequenced.
