Vocoder - A device that featured heavily on QE2 and his next album, Five Miles Out. A vocoder is able to take the characteristics of one signal (the modulator) and impart them on another (the carrier). If the modulator is speech, it will make the carrier signal (often something like a synth strings sound) seem to 'sing'.
