Mental Voice 2 by Umesh and Black Box Magic Productions

Effect

Mental Voice 2 creates the illusion that a spectator is hearing their own thoughts or an external voice inside their head. The performer can transmit words, songs, or specific thoughts to the spectator without any visible props, electronics, or earpieces. The effect appears as pure thought transference, making it seem like the spectator is reading the performer's mind or receiving a message from an unseen source.

Full details

Mental Voice 2 uses bone conduction technology to transmit audio. Sound is played internally through physical contact with the spectator, such as a touch on the head or a surface. The device connects via Bluetooth 5.0 for real-time audio streaming or uses 512MB of onboard storage for pre-loaded tracks. A companion app for iOS and Android provides voice modulation, delay settings, and API support for integration with other magic apps. The device has a stealth design with no lights, buzzing, or visible components. It includes a 5-second delay feature for offline use and an echo effect to add mystery to the transmitted voice. The purchase includes pre-loaded templates, tutorials, and lifetime app access with firmware updates.

Who should consider the trick

Mental Voice 2 is for professional mentalists and experienced performers. Alan from TheMagicMinute states this is a pro-level tool and not for beginners. He insists a strong foundation in mentalism is crucial before using this device. Early adopters who are comfortable with technology may also consider it, especially with upcoming AI voice updates. Blake Aleong notes the trick is accessible for a wide range of magicians but is particularly strong in close-up and parlor settings.

Information on how difficult it is to perform

The method is clever and practical, requiring no difficult sleight of hand or complex electronics. Blake Aleong confirms it needs no difficult sleight of hand. However, performance requires skill in presentation and angle management. Alan recommends testing volume levels by finger-palming the device and adjusting for ambient noise. The trick is highly customizable, allowing performers to adapt the routine to their style. Reset time and practicality for walk-around or impromptu settings are factors to consider, but the device is designed for reliability in various environments.

What magicians say

David Penn and Paul Longhurst describe Mental Voice 2 as a tool for wireless and invisible thought transference. Chris Edwards Magic highlights the bone conduction technology and its versatility for stage shows, close-up, or impromptu settings. Alan from TheMagicMinute loves the device but notes the current robotic voice will soon be replaced with AI-generated natural voices for improved deception. He says, "Once updated, it will be an unbeatable tool for creating impossible, mind-blowing experiences." Blake Aleong praises the method as clever and practical, offering a fresh approach to mentalism that avoids clichés. Magic Orthodoxy's review focuses on the method's cleanliness, practicality, and performance impact, helping magicians decide if it fits their repertoire.
