YOU ARE MY HERRRROOOOO!!!! I had NO idea my keyboard could do this!!! Thank you!!!

I fall in love with my FA07 every time I switch it on , there’s always something new I find on it ❤️

Thanks for a great "how-to" demo! I've had my board close to 2 years and haven't yet tried out the vocoder, but now I need it... your demo is perfect.

Vocoders always sound better if a harmonic rich tone is used. Organ sounds don't have enough harmonics to bring out the voice, so always pick something brash and buzzy, you can always apply a bit of EQ afterwards.

Your videos are awesome! thank you so much for taking the time to share your knowledge.

Thank you soooo much man..I just bought the 06 and I had no idea I could do this! You rock.

Hey! Nice to see that someone share his experience with the vocoder on the FA series. It looks like it's possible to use the vocoder effect on any patch, nice. The only thing is since you have use it on a low pitch organ it was hard to hear the notes and your voice on the vocoder effect. You should try with higher notes and also with other sounds like piano or brass ensemble or vocal sounds. I'll try on mine but I'm not that good to upload videos on KZfaq. Anyway thanks for sharing this with everyone.

Great video, You just saved me 400$ from buying another vocoder. I've had my Fa-06 for a year now and didn't know It had this feature! thank you

Thanks that video helped get it working on my FA08 and I didn't know about the other patches . You can vary the amount of mic signal vs the vocoder effect too. cheers

Wow Great Video , didn't even know there was one on this board

Thanks for posting these! My FA-08 will be here next week. I've played it at guitar center a hundred times. Cramming on tutorials so you've been a big help. Nice voice. Wisconsin? Dakota?

Thanks for the tutorial. I just got my FA06 and the tutorial helped a lot. But I noticed a whole lot of choir sounds don't have the vocoder option and that's kind of surprising.

Thank you SO much for this!

I love you, you just saved me paying for a vocoder

Vey helpful many thanks for the video! just subscribed by the way

Is it possible to use the vocoder with a choir sound to get something similar to the VP-550, VP-770 or VP-7?

hey thanks for this video. I'm considering buying the fa 06. how are you liking it?

Can you sample the vocoder sounds to one of the 16 pads? Thought the Korg Kroma was a cool workstation but this might be even better. Great tutorial.

This was helpful...thanks.

I saw your cable is mono , I have stereo cable with sterling st51 can be a problem ? Because I can't hear anything thank you for your help

Jawnyb2 - Well done my friend. Thank you. Make more vocoder vides these are great.

That is so cool!!! Now I really have to get this board it's like a poor man version of the Kronos now I don't have to go outside my Roland collection

man Bless you man I too was gonna buy another box. man I'm subscribing.... thanks a bunch....

HeyJawnyb2, I have a Roland FA-08 and I want to use the Vocoder Feature. I connected my mic and switch the button from guitar input to MIC. Then I selected the SAW Lead 4 patch and went into the Effect Edit Menu and scroll to the vocoder(68) option in Part 1 (MFX). The sound does not stop playing when I select the Vocoder. What could be the problem and how do I solve it?

You are a Brilliant Human

Is only the mic as source possible? Or can i use for example the drum track instead of voice from mic?

Been trying with my FA 07 with absolutely no luck. I have no idea why it isn't working. Maybe the mic is the issue. I returned the microphone. But, I still wanna have the ability to use the vocoder effect.

does the filter and resonance work with the vocoder?

Thank you for the sharing

Tried recording the vocoder sound into a track and it didnt work..Is this for playback only?

Anybody know how you can get a Korg Ms20-ish sound on this keyboard??

Thanks!

Question- your example shows the MFX as vocoder - now can you add additional post effects and if so how many? For instance, the JD-Xi allows you to do vocoder then 4 post fx

Fa-08 or motif xs?

Hi how to keyboard touch on sir for effect

thank you for that!!

This is great! Is there a way to record yourself and use that sound as a sample up and down the keyboard?

Great, but any keyboard with a vocoder function really should have a top surface mounted XLR socket so you can easily plug in a gooseneck mic! Annoys me when the mic socket is at the back so you have to set up a mic stand and cable, and it's not even XLR, it's 1/4 inch!

Nice one jawnby,

Thanks man!

thank you

Question the mic is condenser or dynamic the fa06 has Phantom power?

Roland after 1,5 year has released a new system update 1.03 for Roland Fa series with bug fixes and its new 'additional function': Support for the ONKYO UWF-1 Wireless USB Network Adapter is like a slap in the face to all Roland FA users. THanks Roland for listening to your users' requests.

@jawnyb2: is it possible to record a guitar by plug-in it to the roland fa-06?

Can you use a headset?

OK, but how do we make this work inside a Studio Set?? Not working for me.

Thanks👍

Can someone please help me on how to record this vocoder in sonar?

Can you use a talkbox for this?

Get your FA06 on Amazon Prime: amzn.to/2ft6J1I

Is this capable of 80s rifts ?
