Realtime voice modularization/masking
Y'know how some creative sound card software lets you change pitch on the fly without messing up quality, or the XBox's voice masking system?  Well, I'd like to know if there is anything out there to be supported by directsound and input devices, particularly MIC IN that will allow for an entirely different voice.  For simplicity's sake, I'll just say that I'm interested in voice acting, but my voice is WAY too deep and low to be heard appropriately for a typical voice role (or on TeamSpeak for that matter).  I dont want to sound like Microsoft Sam, nor do I want my voice to sound like a truck ran over it.  Any options?

Google r b teh b3st!

Most of those will likely be for recordings, not realtime.

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

Hehe, the Xbox communicator is handy. However, all those who use the "small child" mask should DIE!!!

Tempo-held pitch shift is good, but if you are looking for something that adds a lot more 'reality' to your altered voice. you need something like 'Voice designer Pro' which is a DirectX Sound filter for use on things like Cubase and Sonar etc.

OK, screw that.  Not only does Cubase cost some 500 bucks, but Voice Designer has LONG since been discontinued, considering the supporting OSs are 95, 98 and NT4.

On a side note, I found this.  I tried the demo, and it is very interesting, but it's a bit too laggish for my tastes.  A good 3 seconds laggish TBH.  So I'm thinking, what kind of things that work similar to this would be available for pre-existing wavs?  Or is it even possible?

Strange, I've got it working on SX running under XP no  problem at all :)

Joking aside, you might want to try to play around with Cool Edit 96. It's quite a powerful tool for messing around with sound files.

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

"Voice Mask Pro" does wonders for pitch and effects and works in realtime.  Google it.
