i would stay away from the electrix if possible. the micromod sounds 
good, (great machine!) but when used as a vocoder nearly all memory 
is used up, well around 50% it can be quite frustrating. its 
definately not its strong point either. what about a nice analogue 
one? MAM vf11 is a very tuf sounding vocoder only gripe is the 
internal OSC (which sounds rad) cant be controlled via cv gate. 
anyway you could use a midi synth as carrier and alter sounds that 
way. hmmm, dosent really answer your question tho, has anyone heared 
the vocoder on the mini korg (is that what its called?)
