Very nice demos!!! Another one that makes addicted!

But 21 bands is a lot! The old Roland vocoder SVC350
has 10 bands. What about an intermediate solution, say
16 or 12 bands?

And how did you guys end up with 70 pots in your
design? Was that like 21 filter with freq and Q each
and VCA each? That would make 21x3=63 plus some
attenuation and summers I guess.... wild thing!

How about cutting that down? For example design it
with only variable Q (leave the band frequencies
fixed) in order to reduce parts and pots (and
price!!!)?

Best,

Dino
