Cylon voice activation question.

Post by Omega Red » Sun Jun 16, 2013 7:56 pm

Still waiting on my suit to arrive but I'm wondering how do you activate your cylon voice when wearing the suit. I know the warbler is just looped and continuously playing. Any suggestions on how to would be cool. I'm a newbie sorry if this has already been asked..

You mean just the eye sound?
Most have it on - looping just forever. Turn it on while you get dressed.

If it drives you nuts after a bit you'd have to get at the switch, so having it at the helmet neckline or long wires down into the suit might help. If the suit will be a display - a motion sensor is probably the way to do.

@Cylon Knight i mean lets say you have some MP3s of the cylon voice. I've seen some videos where they have the eye sound and also have the cylon speaking at the same time like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTP8159DCuo How is that done?

Okay. Got ya.

I think they are typically on a loop, but with long/random delays between them. I have thought of putting switches in the glove you could work while in the costume. A Cylon sound board of sorts .. Literally at your finger tips. :)

Eye and voice at once, probably two independent sound systems.
