What do you need a voice changer for?
Does it have to do with Twitch?

Sure, I’m nowhere near a bank director on the list of “attractive targets for voice cloning,” but who knows how widespread this attack might become in the future, and by the time one’s voice is out there on the Net, there’s no way to take it back.
I would like to use a voice changer when making phone calls to businesses too. I can totally imagine future corporations creating a new revenue stream by selling models of a known person’s voice to advertisers so they can later correlate the voice to that person.
Unfortunate that Lyrebird’s transformations seem easy to reverse. I wonder if there are any FOSS tools that make it harder to recover the original voice.
Your post gave me an interesting business concept. What if you could buy an anonymous, but totally unique voice, with its own speech patterns and pitches and everything, the way you can currently rent an anonymous email address? Each voice you buy could be generated as a downloadable data set, a one-time sale, subscriptions paid for updates to the software that interprets and reads it.
