Articulator is a digital instrument that recreates the iconic sound of the classic talk box, known for its use by artists such as Peter Frampton, Zapp, and Bon Jovi. It enables musicians to produce expressive effects where guitars and synths appear to 'speak' or sing, adding a unique vocal character to their tracks. By blending traditional talk box concepts with modern technology, Articulator opens new creative possibilities for shaping sounds.

The plugin works by capturing the formant and amplitude characteristics from a vocal input and applying these elements to another audio source, or to an integrated noise generator, in real time. This process mimics how a physical talk box uses the human mouth as a filter for audio signals, allowing users to craft dynamic, talking-like textures without the need for hardware. Its real-time processing ensures seamless integration into any production workflow.

Articulator also includes advanced features such as a built-in equalizer for tonal shaping, a formant modulation section that uses throat modeling technology to refine vocal qualities, and amplitude modulation controls to adjust the intensity of the effect. These tools offer detailed control over the sound, empowering producers and performers to dial in distinctive vocal effects that enhance their music with character and depth.
