Hello boys and girls!

I’m putting together a comedy act and YT channel (I’m retired, bored, and Covid-exhausted), and need something to replicate various chimp and ape voices. I’ll be wearing masks. Chimp, gorilla, capuchin/reesus monkey, possibly one more.

Yes, I know. What the heck is a monkey voice? I don’t know, but I hope you get the idea. I basically need something that will change octave, modulation, and one or two other parameters that I can fine tune to give me a believable gorilla talking English.

Do you think the Voice Box can do it? All of the YT demos I see only relate to music and don’t explore this aspect at all, like creating cartoon voices.

I know there are probably cheap computer/iApps that can do this, but I don’t want to deal with that, I worry about latency, and I want to work direct into an amp with a piece of hardware that I can work live with, even on the YT channel. (Don’t want to process audio in post!)

Thanks for your input, guys. I’m into playing guitar, and have a Boss octave pedal, which gives you a full octave lower. MAYBE that will work for the gorilla, but won’t give me the higher octave and other fine tuning that I assume something like the Voice Box might.

I also have a Roland guitar synthesizer, but I don’t think that will do me any good at all.
