Boney M. used this vocoder to record the scary-as-Hell robot voice in the song "Nightflight to Venus" on their multi-million selling 1978 album of the same title. The Cylons in the 'Battlestar Galactica' TV series also used this vocoder.
i've heard quite a few vocoders but EMS is something else. Dang it sounds good!
i think a vocoder spoke in foreign language is so cool.sounds very outer-space.
That's cool stuff,never heard this before.
Thanks for sharing!
Grate cool EMS Vocoder !!!
The song beginning at 08:07 is Giorgio Moroder - Too hot to handle
The music at the start to 30 seconds is from the demonstration album for the RMI Harmonic Synthesizer and Keyboard Computer th-cam.com/video/D_VT4vXtu3U/w-d-xo.html
Here's an interesting one: Try playing with CC on and auto-translating to English! I promise the results will be HILARIOUS!
Does anyone know the song in between 4:39 to 5:03? Sounds like a Kraftwerk song.
Added to the synthpopandweirdness blog.
Is the voice on this recording The Gentle People - Superstar done with an EMS?
To me it sounds like a VST emulation of an EMS Vocoder.
I recon you are right. Being signed to Rephlex I know fellow label mate Ed Upton borrowed Richard James' EMS 2000 for some work on We Are DMX the same year. I don't know of any VSTs from that era that sounded this good.
The most incredible reality is that you have access to both the EMS Vocoder and the amazing Sennheiser VSM 201 which was right over the pond at: www.xils-lab.com/
Both are available for artists to create with these powerful, incredible, and beautiful tools in the studio or onstage.
