Looking for Vocal Synthesizer that can be similar to talkbox

[SnoMan]

I'm wondering if there are any products available that can simulate to any degree a talkbox or other interesting effects for voice.


I'm wanting to be able to do things along the lines of chanting with a synth-like effect.

Does anyone have any possible recommendations?

You should try to find yourself a vocoder. The best value I've found is the Korg MicroKorg keyboard. It's got a great vocoder built right into it.

Well, for it to work for what I'm wanting it for, I'd need it to be hands free. I'd want to be playing bass at the same time.


I'm gonna check out the vocoder's though...that could be fun if I can't find one for my purpose.

electrix has a cool vocoder

it looks pretty hands-free...you'd just need a footswitch to switch on the effect
