X/Y switching in the Formant block
The Formant block does not support X/Y switching.
Formant: headroom and clipping
Because of the resonant frequencies of the Formant filter, it's easy to make the digital signal clip. Make sure there's enough headroom in the preset level.
Simulate a talkbox with Formant
With the help of the Formant effect you can simulate a talkbox and (if you really really must ...) play Livin' on a Prayer. Here are some threads to get you going:

A real talkbox doesn't go through a speaker, so experiment with leaving out a Cab block.
