Hi All !
The Pro-one is a good controller, i own one, but i reckon it's a bit
limiting for a serious modular . Now what would be really nice, is
the guts of a Pro-2000 behind some module panel (would depend on the
size of the pcb, dunno) . (and a way for us Europeans to get sent
the guts directly, no need to go transatlantic twice :) )
Vocoder ? Hmmm... Very much "en vogue" these days, but Cher's was
done using a Digitalker pedal :) I'd vote against it, for now .
In keeping with the philosophy of MOTM, this one should offer the
lot, with every element accessible, so non vocoding applications
would be possible . Fully tunable filters, filter in outs, env
detect in outs, vca in outs, but normalised and with switchable
vocode setting and, importantly, a good voiced/unvoiced detector with
extensive substitution . Figure 12 to 16 (or more ?) bands, and that
usd500 looks optimistic . The scope (and quality) of this thing
should be big Sennheiser, EMS or Synton . There are enough lower end
vocoders on the market right now .
Take care .
Keep 'em oscillating :)
