    Wow! - This tutorial was so easy to follow, that I was able to transfer the information given here to work on CUBASE with basically no effort - Thank you so much!
    The method I used in CUBASE:
    Create 3 tracks:
    Audio
    Instrument
    Group
    On the group track, add TAL Vocoder to the INSERTS list on the left.
    On the Audio track, PAN to the RIGHT and send the OUTPUT BUS (right hand side) to the Group Track.
    On the Instrument track, PAN to the LEFT and send the OUTPUT BUS (right hand side) to the Group Track.
    Any notes or midi data sent from the Instrument track, will be 'vocoded' via the Instrument and its carrier changed by the Instrument patch.

      You're welcome and I am very glad it helped you. Yeah, it's pretty much the same everywhere - FL Studio, Ableton, Cubase, Reaper. The key is to set the correct routing and you're good to go.

      I agree, but I can see from the replies, that ppl have problems setting it up. The internal vocoder is fine, but the main strength is using other synthesizers in tandem with this vocoder.

    I'm trying this in FL Studio. I'm using the exact same method but I can hear the chords playing along with the vocal. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Both the vocal channel and midi (chords) are routed to the Vocoder channel only. The Vocoder channel is routed to the master.

    • @iamgeorgesears
      @iamgeorgesears  5 років тому +1

      Hey, sorry for the late reply. I am not sure I understand what you're saying, but if I do, you are hearing the synth alongside the vocoder output? Make sure the send volume is up, but the actual volume of the synth channell is turned down.

  • @thetruthchannel349
    @thetruthchannel349 6 років тому +1

    instead of using 'that channel' over and over itd be a lot better idea to use BUS 1 and say thats for TV and BUS 2 thats for the Synth. The one thing you didnt address is what youre setting your MIDI to after you use a synth a the carrier for the Vocoder.
    Thats what im having problems with. It just fell apart in that section. The carrier part just was very clear. which busses
    are mono and which are stereo?

    • @iamgeorgesears
      @iamgeorgesears  5 років тому

      Yeah I agree. I see many mistakes in wording and other areas, that I could have done better. I would definitelly make this tutorial different way than I did.
      The midi routing thing: When you use the TV, route the midi to that insert plugin. It should show up as midi destination.
      When you use synth as a carrier, route your midi to your VSTi synth, but that should be default by any DAW. If you mean routing the sound, the video says which side (left/side) to route the Send carrier signal and the voice Send signal.

    Ok so you slave the midi to both TV and your synth. You bus both audio and the synth to the TV track. You have to put the synth on a mono track and the audio on a mono track. And sent them both through the TV which is on stereo track.

      Only in case that program would be able to host VSTi plugins. Discord doesn't, not teamspeak or Skype. However I know of videos, where people modify their voice in programs like this, so there must be something, that processes the sound, before it reaches said programs input.

      It sounds pretty good to me, basic but the vowels come out clean without any mouth twisting or forcing on my part, even when whispering it works. Id only use this with sawtooth carrier if i wanted clarity. It actually works live without recorded midi, but live MIDI. The routing in FL Studio was very confusing until i discovered that the µL and R channels were reversed for synth and voice... Cheers
