Which voice effect should you choose?

Each effect imitates a familiar sound. "Helium" makes your voice high-pitched, like after breathing in the gas from a balloon; "Monster" makes it deep and menacing. "Robot" gives a metallic, synthetic voice, and "Alien" adds a vibrato that makes the voice wobble. "Echo" repeats your words, while "Cave" drowns them in the reverb of a huge space. "Phone" and "Radio" imitate the sound of a phone handset or an old radio. Finally, "Reverse" plays the recording backwards: fun for inventing a secret language or trying to repeat a reversed sentence. Try them all on the same recording, you'll hear each one instantly.

Understanding pitch in semitones

Pitch is set in semitones, the smallest step of the musical scale: 12 semitones make an octave. Going up 12 semitones doubles the frequency of your voice, and going down 12 halves it: a deep voice at 120 Hz goes to 240 Hz at +12 and to 60 Hz at −12. Each semitone multiplies the frequency by about 1.059. In practice, +3 to +5 brightens the voice, +7 to +12 gives a cartoon voice, −3 to −5 makes it deeper and −8 to −12 turns it into a giant's voice. Unlike a record spinning too fast, your speaking speed doesn't change: only the pitch moves. At extreme settings, the tone becomes more artificial, which is normal.

Ideas and recording tips

The voice changer is great for making a funny voice message for a birthday, creating a character's voice for a video, a role-playing game or a bedtime story, or just having fun with friends. For a good result, record in a quiet room, about 8 inches (20 cm) from the mic, without shouting: the effects also amplify background noise and distortion. The downloaded file is a WAV, with no loss of quality but much larger than an MP3; to share it more easily, convert it with "Convert Audio to MP3". For a simple recording with no effect, use "Online Voice Recorder".

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I change my voice online for free?

Record yourself with your mic or upload an audio file, choose an effect (robot, helium, monster…) and listen to the result. You can then download it as a WAV, for free and with no sign-up.

How do I make a robot voice?

Choose the "Robot" effect: your voice becomes metallic, like a synthesized voice. Speak steadily and a bit monotonously to make the effect stronger.

How do I get a high-pitched helium voice?

Select the "Helium" effect, or raise the pitch by +5 to +12 semitones with the custom setting: your voice gets higher without you speaking faster.

Can I change the voice in an audio file or a video?

Yes: upload an MP3, WAV or M4A file, or a video whose sound is extracted, up to 5 minutes long. Apply the effect of your choice, then download the result as a WAV.

Is my voice sent to a server?

No. The recording and the effects are processed in your browser: nothing leaves your device.
