<title>Introduction</title><para>This is the gr-vocoder package. It contains all available vocoders in GNU Radio. The Python namespaces is in gnuradio.vocoder, which would be normally imported as:</para>

<title>Using the vocoders</title><para>Note that most vocoders use short inputs instead of floats. This means you must convert audio signals from float to short by using a type conversion and a scaling factor. See the examples.</para>
<para>The format of the encoded audio is different for every encoder. See the individual block&apos;s documentation for the data format. Encoded data is usually a vector of fixed length, and can either be packed or unpacked. </para>
