Vocoding: not just for vocals

I've been experimenting with using a vocoder on percussive sounds. I find that if you use a kick, hat, or clap to modulate a fairly rich carrier sound, you can come up with some pretty interesting stuff:
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Anyone else do this? |

| Sounds pretty good..Which vocoder did you use to do this? I've never been able to figure out how to work a vocoder! |

| I used Reason's built-in vocoder. I'll probably start playing around with NI's "Vokator" soon and seeing what sort of sounds I can get out of that, too. |

I think everyone once tries to do sonic mayhem with vocoders and vocoding absolutely anthing with anything...nice samplies :)
I always wondered what's a good vocoder VST? I mean I always used reason's one...
and never thought of getting a VST:.. |

| I'm not sure what the best Vocoder VST is. I never really looked into vocoders until recently. |

alot of finish trance produceres rout their baselines and kicks mixed together thru a vocoder as a breakpart, powerfull efect.
myself use vocoder alot but only on the tracks i dont seem to be able finish.
these samples of you btw are very good! |
thats a cool idea... Interesting for a breakdown. One of the big vocoders is NI Vokator. Getting it later this week as part of Komplete. I used a resonator (The Ableton Live one) on a drum loop on something I was screwing around with, sounded pretty cool esp. on the reverse snare hits! I think a vocoder sounds similar but with much more control over the sound right? |

Megabump!
Been experimenting with this once again, and I'm finding it's really nice for getting shimmering ambient textures. This is a basic synth sound in Reason (one Subtractor) run through a vocoder and modulated by a piano passage:

It has some added spaciness due to being run through a couple of oscillating filters attached to delays. Here's how the delays sound with more staccato stuff rather than a pad:
