hello james,

these synths you mentioned cannot be compared in a
fair way, they are too different in terms of features.
especially the polyphonic synths cannot be compared
with a modular system. its a bit like you want to
compare a truck with a taxi cab.
let's just say that all of these synths are cool
in their own respect.

a vocoder focusses on timbre and not tuning.
you can make your voice sound like a synth or a robot,
depending on the sound presented to the synthesis
section of the vocoder. to some extend you can also
force your voice to a certain pitch, but this is not
the same as an autotune unit can do, f.e. the antares autotune.

best wishes

ingo
