The Analog Vocoder Bundle combines two exceptional vocoder emulations, XILS 5000 and XILS 201, offering users access to some of the finest analog vocoder sounds ever created. The XILS 5000 is inspired by the renowned EMS 5000 vocoder from 1976, known for its intricate analog circuitry and organic tonal qualities. It allows musicians to process external audio sources such as voices, instruments, or prerecorded signals, transforming them into rich, expressive textures. Whether synthesizing choir-like effects from a single voice or reshaping drum loops and guitar tones, this vocoder delivers clarity and purity, maintaining a natural, analog feel.

Designed for both beginners and experienced users, the XILS 5000 features an intuitive interface with presets to quickly explore its capabilities, as well as advanced panels for deeper sound design. Enhanced with modern functionalities unavailable in the original hardware—such as additional filter types, adjustable bands, multiple LFOs, and a flexible matrix patch area—this vocoder brings classic analog warmth into the 21st century. Its two synthesizer cores, stereo analysis, sidechain input, and detailed pitch tracking provide vast creative potential, all controllable via MIDI to integrate seamlessly into any production setup.

The XILS 201 Vocoder emulates an ultra-rare vintage unit prized for its unparalleled clarity and intelligibility, making it a favorite among iconic artists. It features two 20-band filter banks that can independently process incoming or carrier signals, creating distinctive vocoder sounds and multi-effect possibilities. The internal analog synthesizer carrier and a unique multiband envelope follower add dynamic shaping to percussive or rhythmic material. Vintage-modeled effects like chorus, phaser, delay, and reverb expand the sonic palette, while extensive parameter controls and MIDI compatibility provide flexibility for creative expression across various music styles.
