Articulator embodies the essence of the classic talk box in a contemporary digital form, reminiscent of its iconic use in recordings by renowned artists like Peter Frampton and Bon Jovi. This versatile tool is perfect for imbuing guitars with vocal-like qualities, enhancing synths, and crafting a variety of special effects. If you’ve ever witnessed a guitarist manipulating sound with a plastic tube in their mouth, conjuring a talking guitar effect, then you’re familiar with the concept of a talk box. In its physical form, a talk box operates by channeling audio through a filter, typically the human mouth. Articulator replicates this phenomenon by capturing formant and amplitude data from a vocal track and applying it dynamically to another audio source or its internal noise generator in real-time. Moreover, Articulator offers a built-in EQ for sound shaping, a formant modulation section utilizing advanced throat modeling technology, and an amplitude modulation control for precise adjustment of the effect intensity on your tracks.
