I have tried figuring out how to vocode vocals but the results were always kind of bad. I'm just wondering if someone can help with maybe a plugin they use or something. the sound I'm trying to achieve is like the vocals from Unicorn Dream Attack's Love Bits album.

example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=armTyDG2NZ0

Or the voice from PDF Format's Report On Planet's Drinking Water

ex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmkLTdBY8xE

I use FL Studio, so some compatible vst suggestions and maybe an explanation would be nice.

Wonderful album. Got me into vocoding as well.

Try the MDA Talkbox over at http://mda.smartelectronix.com/.
Nico from Seal of Quality pointed me that way. I tried it briefly but opted for hardware vocoding.

If you have some change to throw around, try the EHX Iron Lung or V256.
I use the V256 and swear by it.

Also - bear in mind that your carrier signal (the instrument doing the vocoding) is the wild card. Chords sound great. Try organ / warmer sounds for the UDA style. A lot of it is experimenting.
