A demo and walkthrough of the new semi-modular analog spectral processor from Moog, called Spectravox. Spectravox has a 10-band filter bank, which can be used to process its own internal oscillator/noise source or external sound sources, and it can also function as a vocoder.
This video includes an in-depth walkthrough of Spectravox, a brief history and overview of filter banks and vocoders, as well as a number of demos and patch examples using Spectravox as a standalone instrument, as a processor for other sound sources such as voice and other electronic instruments, and as a unique way of deriving modulation from external sound sources.
