Vocoding continued. Still using it as a pad texture, but this time I set up one vocoder routed to 2 samplers (duplicate feedback samples panned left and right) and multiple carriers. Nothing fancy, but it allows for a little more variation in the composite result. Other than that, the instrumentation is thin - just 2 other synths.

Excellent use of deliberately-limited materials. Would like to hear more about the setup used here.

Lovely interplay between the feedback lines.

very nice. I`m coming back.

I admire your vocoder skilz smile This has a very calming feel to it with the feedback effect.  Nicely done!

Loved it!

Oh damn.  This is really beautiful.  There's that great sawtooth texture on the melody, and a nice depth to the bass part.  Great harmonic choices.

Thank you smile

This is similar to the other track - using rhythm loops for the audio track modulator signal (in my other reply, I accidentally said carrier input). Here's an example of the routing: 2 rhythm track/loops => combiner => modulator input of vocoder. Left carrier input => sampler 1, Right carrier input => sampler 2. Output => mixer. Rather than a single device per input, this give more stereo/room space.

Sounds great -- I'll have to give it a try. Thanks!
