I think AM is only time domain...Having looked at
www.dspguide.com the correct equations are, unlike the
last thing I posted (sorry!):

ReY[f] = ReX[f]ReH[f] - ImX[f]ImH[f]
ImY[f] = ImX[f]ReH[f] + ReX[f]ImH[f]

Re = real (cos), Im = imaginary (sin) for two inputs X
and H.

Haven't tried this yet but I think it should sound
better than the other way I suggested, which I think
is more how non-FFT vocoders work.

With block size of 4:

Sample index:    0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10 11 12
13 14 15..........

Normal case:   | 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0
 1  2  3|.........

Overlap x4:    | 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0
 1  2  3|.........
               ...| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2 
3| 0  1  2  3|......
               ......| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2
 3| 0  1  2  3|...
               .........| 0  1  2  3| 0  1  2  3| 0  1
 2  3| 0  1  2  3|

Each block is one of these: |0  1  2  3|

In the normal case there is no overlap, they just
follow each other directly. With overlap of 4, there
are 4 being calculated at once, shifted equally in
time. So with block size of 64, each new block will be
64 samples long, and a new one will start every 16
samples. These 4 blocks are then added at the
outlet~s. The point is that each block will see a
different portion of the input from each inlet~, which
is essential for doing the overlap-and-add.
