most likely not. it's probably all dsp from input to output. my only 
"gripe"
about the warpfactory is that the bypass is only a dsp bypass ... the 
signal
still goes through the latency of the converters AND gets munged by the 
sampling
rate too. so it's late and lacking in high end.

this isn't an issue for people with enough routing. i'm not worried.

as far as vocoding in a band goes, the most fun I had at the Peoria Pizza 
Works
Thursday Night Open Stage (www.mtco.com/~bradshaw) was when we played some 
damn
Stones disco tune that had some "Whoo-hoo-uhhoooo" part in it, and i 
started
singing (with my telephone handset mic) into the vocoder of my MS2000.

considering the reason they liked having me around was my Hammond organ 
(and not
my playing), this was appreciated by the open stage peeps as much as it 
was by
me.
