Cheezy
Published on 09/26/06 at 09:33
This is an analog vocoder 11 bands with two microphone inputs (XLR and jack) with adjustable input gain, input for guitar and harmonics filtering (I am not guitarist so I could not test this feature ... ) An input jack for synth equipped with a switch to gain three positions (-30, -15 and 0 dB). Next is a set of tapes in the form of zippers so graphic equalizer (frequency ranges are not indicated on the front but it is an idea quickly to the ear ...), a balance control between voice "raw" and vocoded sound, an output volume knob. At the outputs: a headphone output with dedicated volume level, an output for guitar amp and outputs A + B switch with output level (L, M or H to Low, Medium and High) can either use the exit A mono or output B to attack a voice amplifier, or both to benefit from the stereo effect provided by the "whole" chorus-like effect which broadens the sound vocoded (saisissant!). This effect is switched on by default if you do not plug a pedal in the entry of the same name. There are also entries in "controller" entry "vocoder direct" and "hold"
UTILIZATION
Operation is extremely simple, which is not true of all vocoders, especially the analog. The SVC-350 is truly "plug 'n play" and no frills. The use of the effect "set" by a foot pedal is a real treat. Otherwise, it is rare to have to change the settings, except that of the filter strips.
SOUND QUALITY
The sound ... A real killer! I tried a few before that but the vocoders SVC-350 made me a great slap sound! This is the vocoder than using Midnight Star and that's exactly the sound I wanted. So why look for imitation when the original is?
According to the synth patch used, one passes the "fat" over the total air to ground, which will be nicely supported by the effect of "all" is a real plus on the vocoder. It acts as a kind of chorus / flanger that expands the stereo. He must listen to understand ... In short, a real pure funky sound that has little to envy models rarer and more expensive. Those seeking something ultra defined, crystalline and with a unique intelligibility can go their way ... ('users and plug-ins)! Because the SVC is built for "old school" roots with a sound worthy of the heyday of Herbie Hancock. Top notch.
OVERALL OPINION
I use it only for a few days but I can not get enough. This is my third vocoder by far the best!
I was lucky to find it when the score was chastened (490 euros) and I do not regret it! I even think I fell in love ...
