Vocoding samples

Guys - Im confused..... (it doesnt take much believe me!)
Is it possible to recreate a vocoder sound (like daft punk - robotic style) using vocal samples.
For example - Im using Cubase, and want to change some vocal samples for a remix comp into vocoder style.
I have 'orange vocoder' but it just doesnt get the effect I desire (unless im using the vocoder completely wrong!)
Any help, instructions, ideas and which vocoder will be greatly appreciated. Oh - and if it involves me spending money, a sound clip of maybe a before and after would be greatly appreciated too!!
Thanks,

Surely it cant be that hard!!??
Or does the silence mean -
a)I'm talking rubbish, or
b) It cant be done?

Got an example of the sound you want?
It is all about the carrier sound you are using - this will give the tones you want from the classic talkbox to some weird darlek voices etc |

| daft punk don't really use vocoders, it's mostly talkboxes. i've never heard anyone get a talkbox sound out of a vocoder, with any carrier, but it might be possible with a few tricks. apparently talking through a harmonica works, but i can't see how haha. |

They said in an interview they use a different vocoder for every song. |

Doesn't mean that they didn't use a talkbox on the vocals and the vocoder elsewhere :stongue:

| Most people don't know what a talkbox is. Seeing as almost all Daft Punk tracks were blatant ripoffs (with a new kick and talkbox vocals), I don't blame them for claiming they only used vocoders. It stops people from discovering their "secret". |

lol i had in my head for some reason the waves vocoder which has a talkbox preset but i forgot to explain this.
But even then a talkbox isnt a robot voice anyway. Some vocoding and ring modulation might work - maybe put the ring modulate on a send to still keep clarity? |

Ok, Ok,
To save confusion. I mean something like -
THIS
If i had a normal vocal sample - could I make it sound like something similar?
Thanks guys,
