vs. what i am doing ?......i can only speak for my context. There ? ...No ! absolutely not.



i have the vocoder, i patched with it.
Allways the same usecases vs. me:
realtime-play/ one-instrument performance patches.
mostly Piano based.

Means, in my case, i do deal with only one sound source.
And yes, i do use the Zynaptic vocoder in exatly such type of patches. Piano play.....turn it into experimental electronic music.....or: just play piano ;) or:.....move along inbetween the two poles !

to create something useful with the vocoder "in that context" is hard work ! requires skills. And requires huge amounts of testing and what not. In short: it requires in my world a HUGE amount of time to get out something useful, .....leave out something good. And that is then not even nearly as good jammable, performanceable as is with mode 6.

My vocoder patchings do work more like a on top of the cake shugar coating.
It´s nearly not jammable. Not in a way that the vocoder sound as such could be the fundament of the jam itself. It adds more like just another layer of "sound-adjustbaility" to it.
There, in that sense, could be that there is some amount of tonal overlap. Some tonal similarity with mode 6.

Vs. what i am doing, is it not about to get a specific sound out of it. It is about the overall form-ability, the jammability of "that sound". The wider the spectrum is to where you can take it, the more control you have over all this, the better you could recreate the specific "to be had sounds", specific settings, the better the patch.
Thats my art. To create these patches.

The vocoder and mode 6 are vs. this type of usecase scenario not anything comparable in my opinion. I can definitly say this after just one night of test and jammalongs with mode 6.

No, mode 6 is special in my opinion. I really dig it !

Lol, I didn't want to push you into buyer's remorse, I was just mentioning an alternative to Mode 6. Relax and enjoy your new plugin :tu:

I use multiple Zynaptiq plug-ins all of the time because I love the way that they sound. They’re great for my sound design work. So I was pretty stoked to see a new, high-quality pitch-shifter. I accepted the Early Access offer. Now I need some time using it to be able to comment on the overall quality.

But I am disappointed that it’s only capable of +/- 12 semitones. That seems like a missed opportunity now that we have access to such powerful computers. Their algorithms have been awesome in the past, so my fingers are crossed and hopefully they’ve created more than just a pitch and formant shifter.

It's on sale currently.
Opinions so far?

It sucks ass on vocals. There are better alternatives, and probably anything you can think of does vocal shifting better.
Creative stuff is ok, but nothing to phone home about.

I wanted to like it very much but i simply don't, it doesn't sound good, there are better shifters out there in my opinion

it's a brilliant piece of kit - same quality as everything else they make.

Nice of you to help, I was joking about the people complaining about the +/-12 semitones when the solution is trivial - of course I should have done a smiley face or a /s or something to make it obvious

Mine only goes to 11. Am I doing something wrong here?
Doing nothing is only fun when you have something you are supposed to do.

Check your version, they added another semitone in the latest update

I'll wait for PITCHSHIFT AMATEUR
We shall see orchestral machines with a thousand new sounds, with thousands of new euphonies, as opposed to the present day's simple sounds of strings, brass, and woodwinds. -- George Antheil, circa 1925 ---
