Moog 16 Channel Vocoder. The classic vocoder for over 40 years. Looking for the real impressive vocoder sound? Then you must have this one!

In 1978 this Moog 16 Channel Vocoder was released. It can be heard for example on Giorgo Moroder's 'E+MC2' and also YMO, Wendy Carlos and John Carpenter used the device. This new analog vocoder is built by hand in the Moog factory (according to the old design by Robert Moog and Harold Bode).

With this vocoder you can make your synthesizer 'talk'. Technically speaking, a vocoder is a row of bandpass filters, envelope followers and band boosters. You take two incoming signals, for example your own voice and a synth pad. The vocoder divides your voice into particles (sixteen in this case) through bandpass filters. The vocoder then has an envelope-follower look at each particle to see how loud that particle is, and applies that loudness to a band-booster on the other signal. So what you're basically doing is applying the overtones "character" of one signal to the other signal.

Patch row
:So the MBVO vocoder has sixteen frequency bands, from 50 to 5080 Hz. You can route each of the outputs to other equipment, for example, to release an effect elsewhere on a single band. The best application is to send the outputs back to the vocoder (from the top patch to the bottom patch), but in a different frequency. So you can mix up frequency bands! That's what makes this vocoder unique. You can create amazing, unique and distinctive vocoder sounds.
