Let earth receive her king

graycastle talked about Dalek carolers, and this sparked in me a desire to make an album of Dalek choirs singing Christmas carols. Featured songs: Silent Night, Joy to the World, Carol of the Bells, What Child is This... and other stuff we haven't thought of yet. (Obviously these are new series Daleks, with a Dalek god and Dalek heresies.) It would be GREAT.

No, seriously, imagine for a moment a Dalek chorus doing Joy to the World. Especially that last verse. "He rules the world with truth and grace, / And makes the nations prove / The glories of His righteousness, / And wonders of His love, / And wonders of His love, / And wonders, wonders, of His love." AWESOME.

ONLY! I don't have a Moog MF-102 ring modulator, which is the modulator BBC Radiophonics used to do Dalek voices. I just have a VST ring modulator plugin, and no idea what the Dalek Voice settings would be (fiddling got me a sorta-cyberman, but not the exact right lag for Daleks). And my google-fu has failed me.

You know you want to help me out! Because then I will make a whole album. And we can share and glory in Daleks singing "Angels we have on heard high / Sweetly singing o'er the plains / And the mountains in reply / Echoing their joyous strains." And it will be kinda scary, because the coverart will include scenes of flying Daleks from "Doomsday," but also it will be hilarious awesome.

I'm no help at all, but OMG that would be so awesome! :-)

Wouldn't it? If BBC Radiophonics made it with the real ring multiplier settings, I would so buy it. And I would play it over and over again and annoy all my friends! It would be great.

Okay, you've spent a really, really long time studying, haven't you? Maybe with lots of caffeine and not much sleep?

And yet...it would be cool. In a totally bizarre way. ::shakes head bemusedly:: Not that I have any room to scoff, I have a Klingon battlecruiser on my Christmas tree (nothing says Christmas like a boatload of Klingons, I always say).

So true! And even more true if the Klingon battlecruisers attach to your Christmas tree lights and light up and make little phaser noises.

Also, I am maybe kinda a little sleep deprived, yes.

It *does* attach to the tree lights. And I think it does phaser noises- will have to look for the switch when I get home. Gotta love Hallmark *g*!
