Vocal effect on Minipops?

It's at 3:43, he manipulates his voice with an effect, possibly something from this list:

to me it sounds like some kind of spectral processor, im guessing somewhere in the 'various plugins' part of the kitlist.
The sound can probably be done with Melodyne (by smoothing out any pitch drift to the point where the vocal sounds artificial, kind of like an auto-tune but way more realistic and less bad sounding) or a similar effect can be done with a kyma system (which i believe richard was using to do the vocal effects on Come to Daddy)

I think thats the main part of what you're hearing with the addition of it being ran through some kind of phaser (the kind of cartoonish dizzy phasing you hear a lot on Hangable Autobulb that the drums get processed through). He also used this phaser sound a lot during the come to daddy era. Probably why i love minipops so much because its probably the closest thing he's done to a Come to Daddy/Windowlicker type of style since

Maybe this?

Yeah it's that one

No it isn't.

the vocals starting around :30 are vocoded with the synton (or the bode vocoder). in the later vocals the OP asked about, he's messing with the formants, with a modern spectral-based pitch effect, almost certainly a plug-in as described above, unless he has a roland v-synth that's not on the list. none of the hardware on the list could get that exact effect.

true statement

lets talk about vocoders yo

There's a bit on this

Any ideas if it is a plugin which it would be?

now that im thinking about it some more, the easiest thing to do this type of sound on probably would be a V-synth and afaik no software sampler has even 50% of the smooth quality that the pitch/shifting time stretching algorithm on the V-synth has (yet). Melodyne can probably do it but it wouldn't be as easy, you'd have to go in and probably do a lot of by hand modification to each note.

(and i dont mean to be patronizing but its very rare even music making watmmers in here say accurate things such as this in EKT, welcome to the forum)

thanx.

i actually quite like the syntons in these demos.

some pitch correction plugs can accept midi input, which would be an easier way to do the bends w pitch wheel data. not sure which exactly which plug it could be tho.
