Thread: Anyone want to record some soundbites?

Tweet

So I have a new prop for this year that I'm working on and need some voices recorded. I thought I'd be able to do it, but just can't get the voice right. The prop is supposed to be like an apartment buzzer system (like in the city when you buzz a person's apartment and they let you in street-side. I want to have a saying for each of the characters' names on the name plates.
Would anyone be willing to take a crack at it? Looking for about 7 short one liners really. Not looking for anything dark and scarey - a voice for a wise- cracking skeleton is good
Here are some thoughts:
Witch Hazel - "Old Hazel isn't home. I think she is in 'Witchitaw'"
Yor Next - "Oh, you've done it now. They are coming for you!"
Willy "Stinky" Dekay - "What's that smell? It's heavenly! Reminds me of home."
R.U. Frightful - "Boo! Hahahaha!"
I.B. Dead - "He be dead - can't you read?"
Carrie Bloodbucket - "I think she is in the shower."
Any other suggestions are welcome - just what I came up with during a brainstorming session.
Thanks...

Please?

Ok, so does anyone know of a good and inexpensive place that might be able to do this?

Jared have you ever thought about using Audacity? You can record your own voice and modify it to what you want. Creating "poltergeist" voice effect with Audacity

There are more tutorials on the net. I think that the host of Hauntcast has a business on the side doing voice overs check there too.

Found his site:

Hey Jared,

I play in a band and have a fantastic pedal that allows me to make some major alterations to voices. I can sound like an old witch, robot, monster, alien, etc. and easily alter the effects levels, reverb, etc.

I use the system live and for recordings for my home haunt. It's been a major hit for Halloween (in fact I've used it much more for haunting than I have for musical performances).

Can't promise you would like what I do, but I would be happy to give it a try and help a fellow haunter out if you send me a PM.
