Low tech question for lines, I know, but does anyone have any experience with vocoding pedals/boxes? I’m adding some stuff to our touring setup for the next cycle and need a simple but rich vocoder. No pitch tracking / internal synth / harmonizer / bells & whistles necessary, just the standard carrier and modulator inputs. I’ll probably be running a mic and a prophet 6 into it, in case that affects anyone’s suggestions. All the demo videos of these things are always guitar shop guys.

Thanks!

Boss just recently put out one that I wasn’t too impressed by. Though it may have been the guitar demo…

EHX V256 looks promising. Tara Busch of I SPEAK MACHINE uses one in this cover of Cars, and maybe on a bunch of other stuff?

Fast forward to 2:48 for a clear cut of the V256.

Also this guy is demoing it on his keyboard.
