- In this video I do a rundown of my go to processing techniques for robot voices. I whip through them pretty quickly so if you have any questions just ask me in the comments section.
Here are some links to some plugins that I used in this video:

P.S. Sorry about the poor video quality. I need to invest in a better camera:)

What I often do to create a robot voice is, say the words in reverse order and put them back in order with editing.
thats pretty clever
3 years late but I just want to say that's genius
The second example of Pitch and Formant shifting using the robot setting of LittleAlterBoy sounds very similar to the T1 series tactical droids from the Clone Wars series. I have been trying to find a way to recreate this effect, so this is a perfect find. Thanks!
A very informative and professional video, sucks that it hasn't gotten the attention it deserves
A helpful, clear and perhaps the most complete tutorial on robot voice thank you very much I enjoyed watching it
Another creative treat and your presentation (which was already great) keeps on improving. Concise and informative.
Great video, lots of things I've never considered.
Another approach is granular sampling, along with techniques to add "glitchy" stutters and sample-holds.
Frameshift drive charging :) Looking forward to more of these videos!
This was such a well made and helpful video. Thank you so much! I have NO idea how you don't have more subscribers
This has been super helpful and clear, thanks a lot!
What a great overview of available techniques! Thanks!
Dude this is sweet and so informative! Thank you :D
Linear Predictive Coding is by far my most favorite on this list. Vocoding, Pitch and Formant Shifting, and Pitch Layering are pretty nice too!
Only 3 minutes in and I already love this!!!
Also vocoder and ring modulation put *together* would sound SO COOL!🗣️🔥🔥🔥
I got really good results out of Paul Stretch (or PaulXStretch if you prefer the plugin)
Set stretch amount to 1.0 and FFT size to 0.29 and you're set (edit: on a vocal sample ofc)
Out of the box it gets you right in the ballpark for the Russian robo voice from Better Than Us (Netflix)
Oh holy shit, you had me with the Intro already. Amazing video, thank you so much!
This is such an insanely good tutorial. Thank you 🙏
great video, so much content perfectly explained
Excellent presentation, thank you.
How do I like this video more than once
Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
..thank you..this is a great inspirational run-throuh..
Great video!
Great content! Thanks a lot!
I love these things and have recently become facinated by how complex of a robotic voice processing scheme they use for the game Atomic Heart. They have all kinds of robots and they all have their different processing, from ring mod to the pitch layered and high frequency frequency cross modulation effects added to different robot models. But what really fascinated me is that for the "char-les" glove and nora crafting station, the intensity and modulation of the applied affect varies across intonation. If the char-les glove speaks in a low tone, there's only one pitch you can hear, but as higher his intonation becomes the more different pitch bloom in. And the ring modulation of the tereshkova and nora voices also modulate in a certain way depending on the way they speak. Must have been a lot of work to process all these sentences.
'pitch bloom' never heard that before
@@placer7412 the higher the pitch of the voice like a more detuned unison voices come in
Thanks Ross, very informative :)
Thank you!
2:36 for some reason, it reminds me of the same technique that was used for vanghan from max steel 2013
Legend
Cool! Thank you :)
You rock!!!!!
1:24 i like that one
Ross, great tutorial, thanks. I am trying to duplicate the Cylon voice, but I don't know how to set the Vocoder parameters. And what is the frequency of the sawtooth tone? Please let me know?
Liked the Silon (Vocoding) and Speach And Spell methods the best, though I guess its best to have a variety and not stay on a few. A video had a text to speach sythesizer singing.
That intro voice is giving me some serious Mass Effect Legion vibes. Would love to be able to do something like that live on a stream.
Shepard Commander.
Excellent! Thanks for all the great info! Any idea on how they do the exosuit voice in No Man's Sky?
Don’t forget one of the original voice synthesis creations by Texas Instruments in 1980 was the PHP 1500 solid state speech synthesizer side cart for the TI-99/4a computer / game console. It creates phonemes and sounds like the voice on Radiohead Happier Fitter and Limp Biscuit Behind Blue Eyes
Nice vid. I think I've done almost all of these myself. Haven't done the single word per slice method tho. Lots of ideas to play with.
Would be nice to know how you effected method #9...
cool explanation..
One more way ive found that can get some cool results is by using a comb filter
Great video. Sonic Charge also created a plugin called Chipspeech which emulates the Speak'n'Spell (and many other) speech synthesis algorithms in great depth.
Thanks. I didn't know about that one. I can't see it on the Sonic Charge website but I can see a vst called chipspeech by Plogue. Is that the one?
Sorry, that's what I meant to say.....brain fart
@@BluffMunkey No worries. Thanks for the tip. I'm going to try out the demo:)
Awesome, Ross. Please go on with this kind of content! You got something like Patreon?
'way to get to the point dude
i appreciate it :)
You are awesome
Replika XT is now a must-buy for me
Thank you I need this to sing believe by cher
How did you do the introduction... that is the exact sound I'm looking for
I've just been working on 'RoBoT' voice techniques... I found 'time stretching' got some interesting effects... & using the same sample twice, L & R channels, slightly out of time.... Kinda like your delay idea..... Gonna try some of your ideas now, cheers
Thanks you human
Brilliant breakdown of techniques. Was the voice use for the introduction a combination of these?
?!
Great video. Thanks for sharing!
PS. Talk box was my first approach to robot voice recreation, it's really fun to play with BUT it's harder than you expect (i failed as well :) )
Thanks for watching! Talk box is one of those "that looks easy" things. It's almost an instrument in itself because of the coordination you need to learn to master it.
@@RossStack ruclips.net/video/JJV36Xqcy2Y/видео.html what kind of effect is this?
I don't understand how you made the ring modulation one, I'm trying to do so
Which effect did you use at the top of the video ?
How did you do the intro effect?
7:43 That song actually uses a vocoder called the DigiTech Talker. It does sound similar to a Talk Box but isn't.
fan... TAStic!!
so how would i create the Soundwave's voice and the Insecticons voice from Transformers 1984-1985?
thank you for the video but only a question , where i find this first effect " vocoding " please ?
0:40
This sounds like what dehumanizer does but waaay less expensive. Thanks
what is that song at the end?
this video was very helpful considering that my sona is very robotic
Hello. I have been looking for a robot voice STOMP box. I’d like to get a robot voice live, while performing on stage… Any thoughts? Thank you…
Welp. Subscribed.
what program do you use
How can I get in contact with you for business
Nice but i have a question how can you incorporate the robotic sound with real time voice , where by one speaks and the outcome is the robotic sound live in real time?
the only right way to sound as a real robot live when you speak is the use of a good vocoder
FL studio has pitch shifter which works really well for sounding like a turret from portal. That or you can use most ring modulation plugins live.
Of all these processing techniques, can any of them be applied to live audio? Or must it be pre-recorded?
For live performance you might want something like a TC helicon or a vocoder on an actual synth like a microkorg.
Can you do kraangdroid's voice tutorial (tmnt,2012)
6:10 Is that Wraith from Stargate Atlantis?
Same in free software only please!!!!!!!! (Thanks for the tutorial I'd just like to see an Audacity etc. version)
This is like, commercial grade education. wow. my mind is blown.
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but what audio program is this?
Ableton
6:45
4:02 Sounds like tactical droid from clone wars
reminds me of star wars bf 2
46
Why the f is this in Glitch's Mauer Der Toten's zombie guide playlist?
I'm just here to get lucky
I mean daft punk
Melodyne sounds alot like GLaDOS
use a good vocoder to sound as a real robot
Thanks for the info but not for beginners and lots of demonstration but no instructions
Yes you're correct. These videos are not really targeted towards beginners. The examples in this case are more for the purposes of inspiring new ideas rather than being a step by step tutorial. I could probably have made this clearer.
Daleks are not robots 😬😁
Can you do the Anunnaki voice in Trevor Moore's song "My computer just became self aware?"
