Dilliot2k is pretty good with the talk box, for those who don't know what a talk box is, it's what Peter Frampton used to make his guitar "talk".

I don't think I understand. Perhaps I am not gangster enough :(
 
I have a talk box for my guitar, is such a fun effect pedal!!! My brother and I did a little experimentation with it on his synth the other day. I now know how to get that vocal effect!!!! Those guys were pretty good! I'll have to post a vid of me messing around with it soon.

I'll explain how this thing works. The talk box is essentially a miniature amplifier. There's a small 2" or so speaker in it that a rubber or nylon tube fits over. The tube is run up a mic stand so the signal can be picked up and mixed into a PA system. The guitar's (or whatever instrument is plugged into it) signal is run into the talk box and the speaker sends the sound waves up the tube and into the musician's mouth. You can manipulate the sound by changing the shape of your mouth. Fun stuff!!!
 
so you stick a tube in your mouth???? and you change your voice.... i never understood soulja boy but i dont listen to any cRap either....

I want one after seeing these videos.. They look like a lot of fun.
 
Ohhh. I get it now. Thats crazy! So you manipulate the sound waves with your mouth. Then you record whats coming out of your mouth, not the instrument?
