Can you get the Pentagon I in Cakewalk by Bandlab?

[Count Vlad 2]

I'm curious if it is possible to get the the Pentagon I in Cakewalk by Bandlab?    I have the Square 1 in Sonar 7 Home   Studio and have heard that it is like Pentagon I, but I don't know if  it can be used as a vocoder like the Pentagon I.     I've also read that you can go to the original site and download  Sonar 3 which has it, but can't log in to the original site  for some reason.    Is there an easy way to get this synth?       Thanks.

BandLab has not released Pentagon I.

A good free alternative vocoder plug-in is TAL Vocoder.

 

Here is a thread about using TAL Vocoder in CbB.

Thanks.   I have the TAL but my first impression was that is  was a bit cheesy .  Poor sounding and temperamental at first, though I haven't explored it.    I'll give it a go.

Use a different synth for the carrier signal.

Here is how

Also consider retiring square 1 and any other 32bit in your installation. There are quite a few free 64bit synths and plug-ins for practically any task. Using 32bit plug-ins in new projects is not a good idea.

Thanks -- that last bit of about "input mode being on"  was what was needed.  I also found that it doesn't work with  TTS-1 only the synths in the synth category.    But I'm grateful that it's working and it doesn't sound that bad.
