We have a spoken word project and would like to "disguise" some of the voices. I don't want to make the voices robotic, and I don't want everyone to sound like UFO abduction deep-thoats. I just want to take a guy who said something, and change the voice just enough so that he cannot be unmistakenly identified as the speaker. Need to do this for a few men and women. What is the best solution/plug-in/technique for this?

I don't know, high pitched or low pitched vocals seem to be the most usual ones. I guess that means that it is the most effective way?

Here's another down and dirty idea that's pretty simple - you can try using the Parametric EQ. Set up some tight Q filters, then move them up and down the spectrum while cutting/boosting until you've managed to mangle the voice's harmonic structure somewhat (be careful if you're boosting the signal - it's an IIR filter and you can make it ring! - It's probably better to see if you can accomplish most of this with tight frequency band cuts, first).

Try not to trash the intelligibility of the voice, of course - you still want your listeners to be able to clearly hear what your speakers are saying.

Just a thought.

Best... -Jon
