i would say that the emu 'transform multiply' process is more comparable
with that of a vocoder, although none of the results really sound like your
traditional vocoder sounds.
as far as the effect being used before goes, 'transform multiply' was
certainly a function available in the emax II, which surfaced around 88 (?)
[can't remember if it was in the emax I or the emulator II?], so it's fairly
likely that it has been used before!
