This works by using the left channel as the modulator and the right
channel as the carrier. A parameter for adding white noise helps to
improve intelligibility for spoken/sung texts. Another parameter for
gating the carrier helps reduce low level signals causing continuous
output.

# example usage
live_loop :foo do
  with_fx :vocoder, noise_ratio: 0.25  do
    pth = :loop_amen
    sample pth, pan: -1
    x = synth :dsaw, pan: 1, note: :a3, sustain: sample_duration(pth), note_slide: 0.1
    32.times do
      control(x, note: [scale(:a3, :minor_pentatonic, num_octaves: 1).choose])
      sleep sample_duration(pth) / 32
    end
  end
end
