A talk box in your DAW, without a tube
Vocodine is a hybrid vocoder bridging classic character with modern processing.
It needs a human (you)
Carefully crafted to get as close as possible to the sound of the physical talk box we all love. It's got the synth, it's got the finesses, everything is tuned up for you. All it needs is your voice and vibe.
The obsessive goal with this plugin was simple, getting there was hard.
We wanted to emulate the sound of a talk box in real time, including the physical attributes of a synth injected into your throat through a tube, shaped by your mouth and recorded back into a microphone, consonants intact, as detailed as possible.
Unrivaled sound.
Let it speak for itself. Only reverb added.

Built-in synth engine
The built-in synth is perfectly tuned for talk box action, no need for 3 channels of plugins to make it work. Of course, you CAN route in external carrier into it if you prefer that.
Modify and automate
- Seamlessly blend between square, pulse, and sawtooth oscillators.
- Tweak your robo-voice by changing its character, tone, and formant.
- Grab a soundwave on the fly and keep playing it.
- Add some more bite by turning up the hose drive (tube emulation) and saturation.
- Get spaced out with the JUNO-style choruses.
Automatic tune
If you wanna go hands-free and you can hit a note or two, you can.
Use a MIDI keyboard for precise control of your vocal input, or set Vocodine to AUTO and configure it to a scale of your choice to let it detect and generate the pitch automatically.
Minimal routing mess
Plug in microphone
Or use existing audio, Vocodine goes on the audio track so it's up to you.
Sing and play
Route a MIDI channel into Vocodine, or use automatic tuning! Synth is built in and ready to tweak.
Jam live, record, edit
There's room for mistakes and retakes!

Talk box without the hassle
Learning to play the talk box like a true god is always top respect. But the learning curve is huge, mostly because of handling the tube alone. Vocodine lets you focus on the melodies.
