Lector是一种具有卓越可懂度和性能的声码器。100频带立体声声码器核心的两侧是左侧的合成器部分和右侧的丰富效果部分。分析部分中多达100个频带的强度使用具有可调攻击和衰减的包络跟随器来控制合成滤波器组中相同数量的立体声带通滤波器。集成合成器或外部源用作载波信号，并馈入合成滤波器组。除了效果部分，还有许多功能使这款声码器独一无二。
机器人的声音、细语的琴弦、会说话的鼓圈、有节奏的垫子、铃声的共鸣、滴水——可能性几乎是无限的。通过这里和那里的快速调整，Lector可以将任何传入的信号转化为新颖的声音和效果。Lector功能强大，为您提供了一个适用于各种不同应用的声波工具集。几乎任何事情都会发生，从扭曲人声到为主唱添加微妙的和声，再到在电影配乐上发挥创意。
分析滤波器组将输入的音频信号分成多达100个频带，其强度调制合成滤波器组中相同数量的带通滤波器的音量水平。集成的16语音合成器或外部源为合成滤波器组提供输入信号。这让你可以做一些有趣的事情，比如应用旋律线或和弦序列来清晰地表达人声或演讲。
当我们开始开发Lector时，我们花了很长时间仔细研究了如何制作一个强大的声码器。这就是为什么你会在符合人体工程学的用户界面上发现一些特殊功能和不寻常的参数，让你可以调整最微小的细节。传说中的斜率为12dB或24dB的华尔道夫多模滤波器具有突出特点。您还可以获得一个白化滤波器，在声码器对信号进行着色之前对其进行白化处理。当你处理合唱团和声音样本时，这非常方便。三频带均衡器用于增强和削减您希望针对的生成信号的任何频率。
集成的16语音合成器具有两个振荡器，具有典型的模拟波形，如正弦、三角形、锯齿形和方形，具有可变脉冲宽度、采样保持和噪声，以及可自由加载的单采样和多采样。FM和振铃调制通过进一步的泛音频谱丰富了声码器的信号。Lector还提供了一系列用于优化声码器信号的典型效果——管过驱动、晶体管失真和硬削波、六音合唱/翻边、可同步立体声延迟和逼真的混响。

Lector is a vocoder with superior intelligibility and performance. The 100 band stereo vocoder core is flanked by a synthesizer section on the left and a rich effects section on the right. The intensities of up to 100 frequency bands in the analysis section control the same number of stereo bandpass filters in the synthesis filter bank using envelope followers with adjustable attack and decay. The integrated synthesizer or an external source serves as carrier signal and is fed into the synthesis filter bank. Besides the effects section, there are numerous features that make this vocoder unique.
Robot voices, whispering strings, talking drum loops, rhythmic pads, the resonant ringing of bells, dripping water – the possibilities are all but infinite. With a quick tweak here and there, the Lector turns any incoming signal into novel sounds and effects. Tremendously versatile, the Lector puts in your hands a sonic toolset for a wide range of diverse applications. Just about anything goes, from distorting the human voice to adding subtle harmonies to lead vocals and getting creative with movie soundtracks.
The analysis filter bank splits the incoming audio signal into as many as 100 frequency bands, the intensity of which modulates the volume levels of an equal number of band-pass filters in the synthesis filter bank. The integrated 16-voice synthesizer or an external source provides the input signal for the synthesis filter bank. This lets you do fun things like apply a melody line or chord sequence to articulate vocals or speech.
When we set out to develop the Lector, we looked long and hard at what it takes to make a powerful vocoder tick. This why you will find on the ergonomic user interface some special features and unusual parameters that let you tweak even the most minute details. The fabled Waldorf multimode filter with slope of 12dB or 24dB features prominently. You also get a whitening filter that bleaches the signal before it is colored by the vocoder. This comes in very handy when you're processing choir and voice samples. A three-band equalizer serves to boost and cut whatever frequencies of the generated signal you wish to target.
The integrated 16-voice synthesizer sports two oscillators with quintessential analog waveforms such as sine, triangle, sawtooth, and square with variable pulse width, sample & hold and noise, as well as freely loadable single and multi-samples. FM and ring modulation enrich the vocoder's signal with further overtone spectra. The Lector also offers a selection of typical effects used to refine vocoder signals – tube overdrive, transistor distortion and hard clipping, six-voice chorus / flanger, synchronizable stereo delay, and realistic reverb.
