Extremely Important For Current Movie!!!! Please R, Need to know how to manipulate voices Options

[flamingoblood2]

I am working on a movie and i need to make a regular voice minipulated in such a way so it sounds extremly strange and quite frightening. Such as mothman, if any of you have seen the mothman prophecies. I am looking for a software, not a hardware solution. Looking for fairly simple interface. I'm not excatly an audio genious! Please im a big newB and need some help.

On a very basic level, any sort of pitchshifting tool should do the job - such effects are in virtually every FX rack unit, whether hardware or software. For instance, it's how Moloko got the deep male voice in the background of "Sing It Back" - it's actually the girl singer Roisin's vocal pitchshifted to sound like a 25-stone fella

the clasic reverse reverb is a common one (select a section, reverse it, add a lengthy reverb, then reverse it back), then multiple vocal takes a little bit off set from each other works, and there's an os x plugin by whoever makes "frhomage" that might do the trick... then if you wanna get really nuts you can use two tracks, one at about 10-15% volume and use destory fx's "scrubby" plugin, just add some other stuff to the main track to tie it in.

i'd be curious if anybody else knows any good tricks... i'd like to be able to compress certian frequencys to give the bass's and high's a more-than-real "crisp" sound. doing it by hand would take too long
