Does the Japanese Vocaloid software series count as a Vocoder? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.161.122.193 (talk) 23:30, 18 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

This has been unanswered for a long time, but the answer is no. Vocaloid uses digital samples of the human voice which are glued together to form words. This isn't how a vocoder works.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 13:40, 22 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

no mention of this recording from 1947, a novelty use of the vocoder effect decades before the other cited examples. not even a "see also:" why not?

Because it isn't a vocoder. Sparky's Magic Piano uses a Sonovox, which is a version of a talk box.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 06:52, 14 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
