PRO Stormtrooper / Bounty Hunter Voice Amp,
2005 Hyperdyne Labs
2
SECTION A. - OVERVIEW
Your voice amp transforms your voice in real time to sound like a helmeted trooper, a bounty hunter, or a modulated
bounty hunter. When in trooper mode, the board also adds in automatic push-to-talk end clicks and static, replicating
the comm system sounds typical of stormtrooper speech.
This PRO voice board also features several innovations not found in any other voice amp in its class:
1)
4 sound effects triggered from a single pushbutton
2)
Push-to-talk mode to manually control voice output and eliminate feedback
3)
6’ remote pushbutton cable to control all the boards features with a single fingertip
4)
Random blaster sound playback (“Weapons malfunction” mode)
5)
Programmable auto VOX on/off circuitry
6)
Auto mic closing timeout to prevent feedback
7)
Tunable onboard voice compressor – compression ratios of 1:1 up to 15:1
8)
Low-power operation for longer battery life
9)
Tunable voice effect for trooper or bounty hunter (
2 different bounty hunter voices
)
10)
Board chooses from six different click/static end-of-speech sound effects for trooper effect
11)
Volume control for voice effect and sound effects
12)
Compatible with all (Radio Shack) type amplified speakers.
13)
Uses any electret mic – board even supplies phantom mic power
The voice board will run off any DC power supply from 6V-18V. A single 9V alkaline battery will do fine. A fresh
alkaline 9V battery will last around 6-8 hours continuously on. If the board behaves poorly, try replacing the battery.
NOTE:
Handle your board as you would any piece of delicate electronics! Do not get it wet and do not handle it
without grounding yourself first! Even a static shock can destroy the delicate components on the board. I suggest
when installing the board, insulate it with non-static foam, hot glue, heat wrap, or other material. Handle the board
around its edges when moving it. We are not responsible for boards that are rendered useless by improper
handling.
