Voice trick, how to?
View this Thread in Original format

Ok, there is a song from an iPod commercial and a few other songs that I have heard that has a voice effect that makes the guy sound like a robot. Whenever I hear it, I feel an urge to dance. I start poppin', cant stop myself. I cant think of any way to describe it as kind of a buzz put on his voice. Does anyone know how to do this? Might there be a convenient VST for it?

Vocoder?

No, I am refering to a type of dancing. You move your body in such a way that you appear to pop when you move. Kinda like the robot I guess, but better. Anyway, the sound, vocoder? I will look into that, anyone else?

That was most definitely a vocoder. It takes the vocals and makes the synthesizer 'speak'. That's why you usually get that robot sound. Try doing it with big chords and a good synth. ;)

But it has many more impractical uses as well. I find it's a great thing to experiment with.

Ah, great, thanks a lot to those that helped. TVG, I dont do drugs, so dont worry about me poppin E. No cherry poppin either.

they use that for an iPod com.. is it that track? If it's that track, it's most probably not a real voice and a vocoder.. it's probably a text-to-speach kind'a thing.. like whats in frutiy (albeit with effects on top)

just a thought :)

that is indeed the track, I was fooling with the vocoder and I couldnt get it to sound anything like what I wanted... I fail :(
