  >Sorry, but it is the audio section, which suffers the flaws of analog technology. Analog does not mean necessarily good audio quality.
 
analog has its place, digital has its place, all different tools in the toolbox. but this whole "analog is inherently superior in all respects" is just pure urban myth fetishization, like those delusional vinyl-worshipping uber-high-end audiophiles who pay $4000 for a vintage McIntosh tube preamp.
 
face the Grim Meathook Reality folks: the Doepfer analog vocoder system has officially passed into the "vintage gear" category, and if you just Absolutely Must Have One then you'll have to don your ebay-fedora and go Indiana Jones-ing through the used instrument marketplace.

>Folks, get a Microkorg, say "Autobahn" to it, be happy.
hehe, exactly! or, "In Wien sitzenwir im nachtcafe/Direktverbindung: T.E.E....", or the Wendy Carlos "Clockwork Orange" 9th for that matter.enough with the "singing synth" shtick already; it has its place and CAN be used well and effectively, but it also can too easily turn cliche. finding all the OTHER interesting things vocoders (of whatever basis technology) can do is where the real fun begins...
"But that's just, y'know, like, uh, my opinion, man..."   ;-)
