Put a plastic bag over the mic. Or paper back and crunch it with your fingers (be gentle with the mic!)

Or just put the mic under/in your ass while you talk.

any ideas how to do this in windows 8.1?

use vst effects. Set the volume very high and apply some other effects

EDIT: use vb virtual audio cable and vst host

hello!

is it me you're looking for?

Laptop:

-Overkill Dell XPS

Fully maxed out early 2017 Dell XPS 15, GTX 1050 4GB, 7700HQ, 1TB nvme SSD, 32GB RAM, 4k display. 97Whr battery :x 
Dell was having a $600 off sale for the fully specced out model, so I decided to get it :P

 

-Crapbook

Fully specced out early 2013 Macbook "pro" with gt 650m and constant 105c temperature on the CPU (GPU is 80-90C) when doing anything intensive...

A 2013 laptop with a regular sized battery still has better battery life than a 2017 laptop with a massive battery! I think this is a testament to apple's ability at making laptops, or maybe how little CPU technology has improved even 4+ years later (at least, until the recent introduction of 15W 4 core CPUs). Anyway, I'm never going to get a 35W CPU laptop again unless battery technology becomes ~5x better than as it is in 2018.

Apple knows how to make proper consumer-grade laptops (they don't know how to make pro laptops though). I guess this mostly software power efficiency related, but getting a mac makes perfect sense if you want a portable/powerful laptop that can do anything you want it to with great battery life.

If you want to do it for a video (not live), then in Audacity mess with the EQ curve and add noise. That would be the most realistic "bad-mic" sound. I don't have audacity at the moment so search on YouTube "audacity how to eq" and "audacity how to add noise." You could also try audio compression with a really horizontal compression curve. Or increase the volume until the volume is constantly maxed out, and then bring the volume back down so our headphones and speakers don't explode. 

 

If you want to do it live, then I don't know.
