Moog Spectravox – Analog Spectral Processor & 10‑Band Vocoder

A semi-modular marvel, the Spectravox brings spectral filtering and vocoding into a compact desktop unit. By harnessing a ten-band filter bank and patchable architecture, it harmonizes lively drones, textured sweeps, and vocoder-worthy vocal transformations—all with a clearly intuitive interface.
