bit crusher problems

[Newbie dude]

I'm doina sort of, Korn, marilyn manson, Nine Inch Nails-ish song, and I want to use the bit crusher to put a lo-fi effect on my vocals, but every time i use the lo fi preset, it gives me a lisp. Does anyone know a way to tweak the settings on the bit crusher so that it gives me a fuzzy, lo-fi effect on my vocals without making me sound like jim carrey in the cable guy?

Your best bet is not to usethe bit crusher on vocals at all. to best achieve the effect you are after just use eq. i imagine that there will be a preset on your channel eq that will give you te sound you are looking for. good luck.

You might try putting a de-esser (Spitfish, or similar) before the bit crusher and dial out the offending frequency.

Also, try alternative plugins. Izotope Vinyl is a very cool free plug that will give you some lo-finess. Betabugs has the Flofi. Try some of the Simulanalog guitar distortions, etc.
