[sdiy] Vocoder & neural network...

[Tim Parkhurst]

I think vocoders were originally developed for phone companies looking for a
way to encode / decode and simplify voice transmission. You might want to
check to see what Bell Labs or other phone companies have done in this area.
Also, check to see what pops up if you do a search for Harold Bode.
