Can anyone recommend a good software vocoder? I just got one set up on my Linux machine using jack-rack but I can only feed it MIDI input and can't find a MIDI voice that makes the output sound even vaguely voice-like, so maybe it's just the vocoder itself that doesn't sound very good, ya know? And the thing took like four and a half hours of setup: compiling obscure things and learning to use Jack-rack and getting a midi synthesizer to show up in Jack outputs and whatnot.

So yeah, I guess I'm willing to try a less do-it-yourself approach now, maybe even something in Windows, but I need it to accept input from a software synth. My goal is to run a vocoder based on an even-tempered 17-tone scale.
