Hi ya! So like many of you I have bought several of the spirit balls from Ross recently that depicted an old man/looks like dr. shivers face. He comes with a wireless mic. I was checking out the bottom part and theres 2 compartments for batteries, not sure why theres 2, the other spirit balls I have without a mic have just the one battery compartment.
This made me think perhaps if I were to follow someones tutorial on hacking the spirit ball I may mess it up, seeing as there appears to be a different setup for this particular spirit ball.
Does anyone have any experience with hacking this guy? I am feeling like I may just have to rip off his face and put on a mask of some sort and only get to use the wireless mic to make it speak. Im not sure how else to put my own audio into it, since I want to make several types of props with these heads.
For example, someone here posted crypt keeper audio, I would like to put a mask on him and input the audio of the CK.
I guess Im just not too sure of the possabilities of using these heads yet. Im envisioning either hacking with my own audio to customize (with additions of masks, ect) and/or just using the wireless mic sitting next to a cd player with audio I want and put a new face on it.
Also, does the plastic part have to stay on the bottom, I know of people who have put these on dummies before but I see the place for the sound to come out of and if you wanted to use the aux jack its there on the plastic bottom part too. (the piece that holds the globe in place, and attached the feet to). So Im not sure how there were able to do this part.
Any input from someone on this would be greatly appreciated, and once I get it through my head perhaps if someone has a cool idea what to do with the heads that would be awesome too
