Thread: Source for a good quality voice changer?

Tweet

I am looking for a good quality, self-contained voice changer. I tried a couple of the $10 last year, but they suck. Nobody could understand what I was saying, and most said I sounded like a robot rather than the grim reaper.

I would like something with better sound quality and more "monstrous" sounding. I have considered using a bluetooth headset, paired to a laptop, running through a voice changing program, then running the audio out of a wireless transmitter to a wireless speaker mounted to my costume, but.... I would like to try something easier first.

Any ideas?

I bought a mic'd spirit ball recently and would love to hear the feedback to your question as I was thinking maybe I should look for one. My female voice wouldn't scare a spider.

Thanks, I'll have to check this out. I am as well looking for a voice changer, but not cheep one. I want one that is going to drastically change my voice into a more dark and deep sound, but not enough that it sounds like crap. I read more into this.

WOW! I know people take their costuming seriously, but dang... $400 for a voice changer. That is certainly top of the line, but not something I can justify for our fundraiser haunted trail. (even though buying it is tax deductible).

Has anybody ever used a DIY voice changer, such as these:
