La Voz Cantante

La Voz Cantante is a free vocoder VST plugin developed by MVs Plugins. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b.

An FFT-based 1024-channel vocoder. The modulator input – usually a sung or simpjy spoken voice – is analyzed with respect to its spectral content, which is then applied to the other sound source. The latter may be any externally supplied signal ranging from pink noise, synth pads, guitar or even drums. Alternatively, there is an internal, MIDI driven synth which is optimized for best speech reproduction fidelity. You can blend the high frequencies with noise for natural-sounding sibilants. There is also a noise gate, a compressor and a stereo reverb on board.

Here is a summary of La Voz Cantante’s features:

FFT based 1024-channel vocoder.

Stereo inputs for carrier and modulator, respectively.

Optional MIDI input to drive internal synth as carrier.

Polyphony with unlimited number of voices.

Up to three voices per note with adjustable relative detuning and stereo width.

Octave, semitone and fine tuning controls.

Option of noise blending for improved sibilant formation.

Built-in modulator noise gate with indicator.

Built-in soft knee limiter with color-coded LED indicator.

Built-in stereo reverb.

Master volume control with output clipping indicator.

LED indicators for inputs and outputs for quick check of signal routing.

New in Version 6B:

Increased resolution to 1024 channels.

Full stereo processing.

Reduced latency.

Report latency to host.

GUI rework.

Reworked sibilant management (much improved!).

Internal synth dynamic response.

Hide ADSR controls.

Added portamento.

Added delayed vibrato option.

New reverb powered by MVerb 7B engine (much improved!).

Optimizations and bug fixes.

Hot Robot Vocoder

Hot Robot Vocoder is a free vocoder VST plugin developed by Design-S. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Design-S Hot Robot Vocoder is a vocoder VST effect. It is written in C# and requires .NET 4.0.

What differs this vocoder among others are its bands. You can drag them and resize them as you wish to affect the output sound. You can change number of bands from 4 to 40 by turning the bands knob.

It has a setup package to simplify installation.

DtBlkFx

DtBlkFx is a free multi fx and eq and filter and vocoder and pitch shifter and delay and distortion and flanger and phaser VST plugin developed by Darrell Tam. Compatible OS(s): Windows, macOS.

DtBlkFx is a Fast-Fourier-Transform (FFT) spectral processing plug-in.

Features:

Precision parametric equalizing with sharp-roll off:

Set the frequencies so accurately that you can adjust individual harmonics of a sound.

Frequency resolutions of up to 0.7 Hz.

Harmonic based (or comb) filtering:

Set a fundamental frequency and adjust the level of it and its harmonics – you can even remove the pitched component of a voice.

Active harmonic tracking – let DtBlkFx automatically track a sound and adjust the level of its harmonics.

Various types of noise control:

Change the “contrast” between loud and soft frequency components.

Adjust only those frequencies below or above a particular threshold.

Clip frequencies above a particular threshold.

Sound smearing (phase randomizing).

Frequency shifting:

Harmonic shifting by a fixed number of notes.

Non-harmonic shifting by a fixed frequency.

Active harmonic repitch – the content of your sound is monitored and re-pitched to a destination note.

Vocoding:

Standard (frequency enveloping) – make your trumpet rap, string section sing or synthesizer talk.

Harmonic based – harmonics in one channel are power-matched to those in the other (or some predefined waveforms) for a new vocoding sound.

Frequency masking:

A harmonic or threshold mask may be set for any effect (apart from vocoding) – for example only shift frequencies that are below the threshold.

Realtime spectrogram (waterfall) display of input and output sounds:

See what frequency components are in your sound and exactly what you’ve done.

Use your mouse to see the note & frequency under the pointer.

You can select up to 4 of the above effects to be run in series – combining the effects in this way allows you to make completely new and surprising sounds.

DtBlkFx is freely distributable and is covered by the terms of the GNU licensing agreement. Source code is included.

Cannabis Vocoder

Cannabis Vocoder is a free vocoder VST plugin developed by Bitsonic. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b.

Cannabis vocoder is a funny plugin which can completely change the sound of your vocal track. The mono version is an effect plugin, meaning it’s not a VST instruments. Using the effect on the vocal track the software automatically tracks the tune of the vocal track, and calculates the pitch of the changed sound as well.

The poly version is a VST instruments application, where you can load the vocal track into the software and using the MIDI channel you can create a polyphonic vocoder.

Interface:

Octave/Semitone: You can change the pitch here. If you change the value of the octave you can create various, interesting sounds – even within the same vocoder tone.

Attack: Changes the reaction time of the vocoder.

Original: Dashes the altered sound with the original sounding.

Vocoder: Changes the volume of the vocoder, but the original sound stays the same.

File: Saves or loads your personal settings.

Voice/Groove: If you use the mono version, you can use the specific sound of the vocoder for grooves, drums. In this case I suggest changing the switch button to groove mode, so the pitch extraction works on fix pitch.

Load: Loads a new wav file.

Menu: You can choose from 25 different tones.
