MOTM

Right---Moog provided breakout points on the production filter banks so that
she could get access to the individual bands.

Sure, it was a real vocoder. What she did modularly is exactly what's going
on inside a basic vocoder sold as a unit. Conceptually, it's a simple,
rather clever device, but there are a whole bunch of parts involved. When
you talk about making one out of individual modules like Carlos did...
sheesh, I can't imagine what she must have paid for that thing. A few grand,
easily, even without the mods. And it was only ten bands. On the other hand,
being modular, she could always use those modules for other things (although
looking at pictures, it seems the wire harness stayed there once it was
installed).

If I recall correctly those weren't standard fixed filter banks, Bob Moog
had specially modified them ( a 914 & 907) along with the envelope
followeres and VCA's to work as a vocoder. Was is actually a true vocoder?
