From YouTube video:

For more information and to take advantage of the introductory offer of $149 (a hundred bucks below the regular price), head over to Zynaptiq's website and grab the plugin before the price goes back up. The Orange Vocoder 4 is compatible with VST2, VST3, AAX native audio units on Mac and Windows, and Apple Silicon native out of the gate. So, if you're looking for a versatile vocoder plugin with a whole range of features, be sure to check out the Orange Vocoder 4 from Zynaptiq.

Edit: I couldn’t  find $149 deal but see $179 on Zynaptiq website.  Assume free update(?)

This was the first vocoder i used back in the dayz .... exellent but why expensive ....this version seems totally new , but old one was expensive for bascially the same code , or am i missing solething 

question is can i do talk box instead of those daft punk crap ...? I hear 5a good africa bambata still preset but nothing roger trouman style ...

question also : cpu hit as low as old one ?

Testing the demo, eats cpu for breakfast, and I haven't got Midi Learn to work yet.

It's not going to win many awards in the ease of use category. But it does come with some interesting presets.

That said, it's tonally very very deep and versatile in the types of sounds it can generate.

It comes with a quick start manual that's maybe 20 pgs long? But it doesn't outline how you can get it to "learn" the midi keyboard signal.

I'm definitely going to investigate further. This is a delayed gratification type of plugin.

Please forgive me for making observational notes here. I'm hoping some other people are investigating this demo, and might share their observations . . 

This thing sounds like the clearest vocoder for intelligibility that I've yet heard. It will be used on lots and lots of popular tracks in the future, would be my guess. All the presets use the super excellent Zynaptiq reverb and chorus that's onboard.

I still haven't been able to get it to recognize my midi keyboard in real time.

ABSOLUTELY KILLS CPU if you ask it to apply the vocode/autotune across multiple notes. For single note vocoding, not a big hit. Put a four, five, or six-note chord together, and your cpu headroom disappears.

 

The "drone" presets might be worth the price of admission all by themselves. They are a great add.

 

That said,  it's $149 on sale, soon will be $249? For me that's heavy coin atm.

 

I have a specific task I'm trying to get Orange to do - to robotically vocode without being confined to a single note, without being a robot monotone. I want the robotic vocal treatment to follow the pitch and melody of my sung vocal line . . . essentially, a polyphonic or polytonic robot. No luck yet with Zynaptiq.

 

cheers,

-Tom

Is this considered thread hijacking?

Hey PhonoBrainer, I haven't had any experience with zynaptic, and I'm not sure I know what you want to do, or what the plug is designed to do.

Have you ever tried The Mouth by NI, it runs in reaktor.

I didn't bring a coat, but I'll show my way out.

Heck no, the more hijackers on this plane the merrier! I'll check tha NI one out. Right now I'm using the bv-535 or whatever it is in Reason, and I'd love to drop my Reason subscription completely.

I can get it to recognize my midi keyboard in real-time in Mac (logic and ableton live).  As for CPU hit, on M1 it’s not an issue for me at least.  As for your other goal, seems it possible to switch carrier to your voice so this may be what you are after.  Haven’t tried it yet.
