A Speak & Spell Vocal Effect Plugin?

This is a tutorial and demo of the Soniccharge Bitspeek VST plugin. It's an audio effect plugin which uses technology similar to that used in the old Speak & Spell toys. You can use it to process your vocals to sound like a robot. Or you can use it to inject some lofi vibes into your tracks.

Then you don't need to buy this plugin. Big brain time 🤷

[@alexhauptmann298]

I love this plugin. Actually it's even better as a Reason rack extension because you can replace the internal oscillator with external audio AND use its pitch tracking to control other synths!

[@nostalgia_junkie]

:( no fair

[@VJFranzK]

Very interesting...!

wow i am actually glad reason has this ability over other DAWs because I am always worried that reason users are all going to kill themselves since ableton is almost always way better lolol I joke I joke

"This damn well better be Bitspeek!" Glad to see Sonic Charge plugins getting a spotlight. Permut8 is another I'd really recommend looking into for your next video.

[@badonkster]

We actually just used this for a school project this year to create a convincing robot voice, funny to see it pop up in my recommend now

[@Recycled]

Most likely based on search data you used for creating your project. I wouldn't be surprised, anyway. The thing you're already engaging with, you're sure to engage more..

[@bobafruti]

Recycled lol, I just booked a trip and looked up info on a watch a friend gave me... been get nothing but trip booking and watch ads on KZbin. 😂🤣😭🤔🤔

@@Recycled I thought of that as well, but it was like 3 months ago and all searches were on his Mac, so I doubt it, probably just coincidence

Hey I have this! It's been sitting in my VST folder for a few years now. With the expense of all my sample libraries this was one of my more affordable purchases. Thanks for bringing it back to life in this video. I just dusted it off and had some fun :--) I like your channel

Very good and also since you have everything connected. I would like to do the same, but I also have a guitar and a microphone. And a 6-channel console ... it is difficult to place it ..

[@fnytnqsladcgqlefzcqxlzlcgj9220]

I've never even thought of using bitspeek for vocals lol, I was using it for darkpsy sounds. I would recommend the pack it comes with with sineplant and stuff

[@russianvoodoo]

It can do a lot more. Putting it on your pads or on a bus channel for many layers of your track can make some weird magic. Btw, I was struggling to find other voice processing VSTs. Or maybe other audio editors. Like for creating Shodans kind of voice (from System shock 2), another vocal kind of synthesizers and so on.
