This Evil Effect!

Hello to all (first post wow! B) )

I´ve been wandering how to get voice samples sound like the evil from hell :panic:

Let me explain, these kind of voices generally fit for a intro in a tech-house session for example, it´s very lowpitched… kind some distorted… totally unhuman.

What i am looking for is or a vst effect, or a concrete effect in a sound editor that applied to a speech sample, so I can be sound evil!

Whole thanks ;)

pitch-shifting, timestretching, distortion and delays come to mind here.
however it would be advantageous if you could link us to some kind of audio-example to make it 100% clear what you’re looking for.

I hope these two samples clarify the question,
(MP3) - Sample 1
(MP3) - Sample 2

Thanks for so fast response :D

Pitch-down and time-compression i recon. And some reverb.

i see…
well i guess the voice is not heavily post-processed with some digital effects, because it seems that the guy on the mic does already have a pretty deep and masculine voice by nature.
if you talk like a chipmunk you won’t be able to get such results.
a good microphone + soundcard’s input is also need to obtain such recordings.
the voice does merely seem to be EQed (low-frq gain) and down-pitched a bit, but nothing serious i assume.
but hey, i’m not really a professional… so i might (will) be wrong :)

Ooooooookay
let´s see what can i get with adobe audition and those wise advices.

Thx again

Some gabber uses ring mod to get demonic voices going, and that might be the distortion you’re referring to (makes the voice sound bubbly). Renoise tends to apply a bit too much when it’s an envelope effect, but it’s worth a try.

the ring mod effect can be achieved by using vibrato on the sample. Try it, it is very effective! I’ve used it some years ago on Fast Tracker 1.

Anyway, I agree with Keith303: there is nothing but a pitch shifter, some close reverb and maybe a little distortion in that voices.

I used Ring-Modulation, too but now I am looking for an effect to get a more robotic voice for an intro (I created some video-soundtracks for www.hardstyle.tv) and therefore I need the opportunity to create some very dark and evil robot-voices.

I tried orange vocoder and some ringmods but it doesn’t sound as evil as it should…

The best would be, if I could create a voice like the evil voice in “Tron” or even the bad guy in “Thriller”…

Any ideas how I can get as close as possible?

sorry, I meant “arpeggio”, not “vibrato”.

Try for example to put a 0012 oover a voice sample
