Well, Vosim was developed for speech, so I guess at least it was useful for that, but personally I didn't really play that much with it. A single vosim generator as in my patch will exhibit a signal with one strong formant. Combine three of them, and you can do some almost nice vowel sounds by putting the formants at the typical frequencies for a, e, i ...
Although vosim is a granular technique, it's purpose is mainly in the realm of what Miller calls "designer spectra" in his book. There he also describes some more flexible techniques.

They are just abstractions, you could get them from CVS and then use them. Both really help with creating and managing many copies of an abstraction.
