The more bands, generally the clearer the words. Also experiment with the mix of carrier/modulator, and especially the frequency knobs to hone in on the frequency of your vocal. Consonants, esses in particular, are the most important part of speech for articulation, too much low end can muddy it up.
The synth patch and the notes you choose can also have a big effect on the clarity. Long synth pads that have a pretty quick attack and are bright and buzzy (for lack of a better discription) work well.
Don't get impatient, you're a very talented guy. If you take the time to master some of these tools, you're going to make some amazing music. Have fun doing it.
Some type of way to change the way vocals sound?

Thats the problem with vocoders, they sound great but its hard to understand the lyricsnewtoFL wrote:Thanks, I may have to mess with it some more since I can get it to work in the demo but not in the real song, but I am sure I can get that to work. One problem I am noticing is how you cannot understand what the vocals are saying, I hope that is easily fixed.

Good to "speak" to you, newtoFL. Get some sleep, man. I'm fading quickly myself (6:18 a.m. where I am, been up all night). See you around.
P.S. What are you going to call yourself in the not so distant future? Like the Jackson 5 had to change to the Jacksons when Randy joined. Will you be oldwithFL or FLjadedguy or boredwithFL or wasnewtoFL?

I believe all this talk of vocoders is a red herring. The Daft Punk sound is achieved by a pitch correction plugin on extreme settings, for example Antares AutoTune or RBC Voice Tweaker. That's right, it's the famous Cher "Do you believe in life after love" sound.newtoFL wrote:I would like to record a phrase that I will speak into my microphone and change the sound of it in FL Studio. Kinda like how Daft Punk makes his vocals sound in his songs.

I just have to say that newtoFL is going to fill out the entire kvr wiki
with rather inspired newbie questions, with all our responses.

That would be very unessesarilly limited. With it now you can vocode any sound by any sound.newtoFL wrote:Thanks, the tutorial demo in FL Studio helped me figure it out. Weird why they would make it that complex, why not just have an automatic synth applied or built in with the vocoder already?
The fact that it is mono is pretty weak though.
