Was wondering if anyone had any actual experience with the "HyTechToyz" Mandalorian Voice Changers. Last summer when I was trying to put together a basic fett costume for halloween (back before deciding to eventually go full 501st approval WIP) I purchased the "pro series" mandalorean voice changer off of ebay. It's a hell of a way on the pricey side, was $150... and has so many wires, batteries, and speakers (2 mini speakers, 1 larger sub woofer type speaker) that it looks like a jet engine's cockpit exploded. I had them include a remote switch at the end of a 3ft wire... so that I could have the unit up in my eventual helmet, and then have a wire running down through the jumpsuit, under my glove, and have a "remote switch" down on my finger... so that I could talk normal, but when I would want to talk like fett with the voice distortion, I could touch my index finger and thumbpad together on my right hand, pressing the little button under my glove, and then it would turn on the mic. I figured that I NEEDED to have a remote on/off for the voice distortion & mic, because I was going to be trick or treating with my 2 little kids, and didn't want to scare the hell out of them by only having scary distorted voice. Talk in dad voice.... then when needed, press my 2 fingers together and talk like fett.
Then because of another thread in here I saw one of you guy post about the remote microphone headset on ebay which should work great with it, and allow me to keep all of the bulk of the wires/speakers in a pouch(es) and just have the wireless headset in my bucket. That's the plan anyways.
It distorts your voice when you talk, definitely a metallic reverb to it, though like all voice changers you have to talk with a slightly altered gravely voice to try to imitate fett a little bit, otherwise it's just your voice with distortion.
I'm asking because my costume fell through, I'm now waiting on my real stuff to get made/painted (woot), but haven't actually gotten to use the unit IN a helmet. Using it outside of a helmet I was pleased with it, especially the "remote" on/off option to speak as fett or speak normal by pressing a remote button
Was wondering if ANYONE in here has used it. I heard horrible things about the "basic" voice changer they made, so bought the upgraded "pro" one, and like it thus far. Was wondering if anyone here has used a pro series voice changer from them while trooping.
