I want to be able to run my synths into a talkbox or vocoder. Which one should I go after?
From what I can tell, the plastic tube in a talkbox makes enunciation clearer. So why, then, are vocoders (which use a normal microphone) a different beast? Can anyone tell me the sonic differences between them?
I don't mean bandpass filters and all the technical stuff that makes each one work, I mean the final result that you hear: does one outshine the other? Does one seem better-suited for synths than the other?
Thanks for any advices,
