Anyone know how they add that form of unique distortion to the announcers voice? I've been trying to emulate it with CEP but have'nt had much luck.. Has anyone else tried this? I've got a spot to do on a related topic and the client would really like to add that popular sfx to it.. Got any Ideas?

It was fascinating good work, so it triggered me to use CEP sometimes for distortion of voice to make voice more aggressive. Quote: Race Fans Hot Rodders... This sunday! Sunday! SUNDAY! I don't know this trailer, so from where can it be heard or downloaded? DD.20010321.1155

You'll want to check "Preserves Tempo" and use High Precision. After you've made yourself fairly 'demonic' sounding, try using Chief's idea of applying a little flange to it....Voila! ---Syntrillium Support _________________

I had tried using pitch bender, flange and filters but could'nt get that crispy crunchy sound they've made famous. Maybe I'm too critical. Crunching and bending word for word may work better. I'll let ya'll know what happens..
