Help needed!!!
I'm using the MBox and was wondering how I could make a vocal track sound like it is coming out of a megaphone/speakerphone? Is there a filter or effect? Thanks.

Wish I was at the studio right now, I'm at home on the gay little laptop. I've never done this with ProTools, but if you happen to have cool edit I could show you. I can also show you in Acid.
Get @ me. And if you need it in a jam, you could send me the file and I could do it for you, then send it back -- then teach you how to do it after. |

Re: Help needed!!!
The way to approach this is to analyse the system you're trying to mimic. When you consider a megaphone or speakerphone, it's basically a limited bandwidth system - meaning that they don't reproduce high and low frequencies very well and instead concentrate on the area of the freqency range that human speech is.
So the way to go about this (on a prerecorded track) is to do some bandpass filtering - cut the lows and highs drastically and boost the mids. You can try a 4 band EQ with a lowpass filter set at around 6 KHz, a highpass filter set at around 500 Hz and a boosting bell filter at around 1 KHz. Adjust the different frequencies to taste.

Re: Help needed!!!
It starts with how you record it. Let the person really yell into the microphone, and adjust the settings you are slightly overmodulating in the analog domain
Then have a go with the free Izotope vinyl plugin. It removes all the hifi from the track... After that, compress the heck out of it adding a little slap-delay without feedback will get you that "bouncing off the wall" sound more info at http://izotope.com
