because microcontrollers were expensive and unable to perform digital signal processing tasks in the way you would use them today. [Julian] has been trying to build a vocoder from that era from ...

For something completely different, consider using the text-to-voice feature on your computer to record and act as the modulatory signal for your vocoder. Bands such as Radiohead have been known ...

MELP was selected as the best of the seven candidates and even beat the FS1016 4800 bps vocoder, a vocoder with twice the bit-rate. Traditional pitched-excited LPC vocoders use either a periodic pulse ...

The MELPe algorithm was developed using several enhancements to the original MELP 2400 bps specification. MELPe implements a variable low bit rate vocoder that supports multiple rates of 600 bps, 1200 ...
