At first, you need your unprocessed VO. For my effect I used Doug MacAskill’s voice. Then you add several layers to the original. Here’s a short overview how to do the effect:

• Create 8 mono tracks, pairing up for two.
• Delay one channel of the second and third pair around 16ms to widen the layer.
• Create a LoCut around 400 Hz on the third pair.
• Send all the tracks to a reverb.
• Drop the original VO to the first pair.
• First duplicate: pitch -6 semitones.
• Second duplicate: pitch +4 semitones and add
  – SciFi
  – Mondo Mod
  – Flanger
  – Filter
• Third duplicate: pitch +6 semitones, add Enigma.
• Volume adjustments.
• Move the clips to create a chorus effect.

Be up for next week and learn how to use this VO and create a Halloween style sweeper!
