This would be possible. But after all a vocoder is not really a secret but only a lot of work to built it (2 x 15 filters, 15
envelope followers and 15 VCAs, and maybe 15 voltage controlled slew limiters as option). So other manufacturers would be able to
offer a vocoder without the need of licensing.
