* The Cylons in the[[Battlestar Galactica (1978 TV series)|the original 1978 ''[[Battlestar Galactica Classic]]'' series]] spoke this way (human actors run through a synthesizer).
* ''[[Doctor Who]]'': [[The BBC]] originally considered doing this for the Daleks, but with 1963 technology, they could have done only 45 seconds of dialogue this way, so they used a human voices filtered through a ring modulator.
** It's actually pretty easy to duplicate the Dalek voices. Record your voice with Dalek speech-patterns, over-amplify it to add clipping distortions(sometimes people, including the producers back in the day, often tend to forget this, oddly enough), then run the results through a ring modulator plugin using 20–40 Hz for the frequency of the modulation.
