Super!

Is like magic for voices!

It does pretty much exactly what I wanted it to do.

It's a bunch of vocal effects in a pedal, and it is easy to use once you get the hang of it. The interface on the hardware is easy to use; my only complaint is that the software that comes with it is not very intuitive.

Trop limité

Il n'y a ni volume ni EQ ni contrôle précis de compression... C'est super décevant. Et le bypass n'est pas un vrai bypass, on sent qu'il traine toujours un truc, une épaisseur supplémentaire sur le son de voix qui n'est pas naturelle. Les effets sonnent hyper clean et digitaux, plein d'artefacts pas sexy. La pédale est grosse, lourde et envahissante. Bref, je vais la revendre très vite.

Mycket bra

Mycket bra produkt som gör sitt jobb. Enkel att jobba med. Vad gäller stämmorna så funkar den bäst när man själv bestämmer tonarten. Den automatiska funktionen är så där.

Personligen använder jag mest terser ovh kvinter som pålägg då jag tycker dessa låter mest naturliga. Att dubbla sin röst låter också fantastiskt.

Överlag en mycket bra produkt som fungerar lika bra live som i studion.

Worth the money

This pedal is a game changer, it sounds great. No doubt it's the best option for the given price.

A small blue tank with effects!

It's not very pretty or fancy like having a whole pedalboard set up for vocals, but it really does the job well!

Easy to use and set up without looking at instructions.

Overall very intuitive.

I originally bought a OBNE MAW, but traded it in for this as the unit was faulty. As nice as the MAW was, it was tedious to adjust around and chain up loads of effects and drag a whole pedalboard with other stuff with me.

This little blue brick basically does everything I wanted from a pedalboard, although without the funky features and very customized sounds a pedalboard can give you. But in return you don't have to tap-dance as much while trying to not screw up your live set.

It's been kicked around the rehersal space, and won't crash on me, so I am very satisfied.

Oh and the effects are decent, but not exactly top shelf, but I play in a Deathrock/Punk band, so no one cares XD

Nice tool for vocalist

A lot of features and presets makes this a wonderful tool for both amateurs and professionals. The power adapter feels a bit plastic and the contact does not sit firmly attached to the pedal.

Very good for the money

Makes your voice "clean" (depending on the setting...). Takes one hour or so to understand the menu stuff and you're good to go.

A great effect machine for beginners

Many preset sounds and a nice sound overall make this little box a great companion for a singer or performer. The programming part takes some time to learn, but nothing you couldn't do if you already have it and want to include it in your performance. I find the sound quality not to be amazing, but unless you sing or play solo, the rest of the band may cover the little shortcomings of this pedal.

I recommend it if you're on a budget, but for truly high-quality audio, one needs to spend more, it seems.

Fantastic device

First of all, this unit has best auto tune out of all that I tried (Boss, other TC devices), it is smooth and if set properly almost not noticeable, does the job perfectly. Finally crowd is not suffering because of my vocal mistakes. Harmonizer works perfectly with specific setup - I return only my guitar from mix monitor to VoiceLive AUX plug, don't rely on built in microphone to give you accurate harmonies. I use both outputs to mix board, in master mix output I send voice with effects, and in my in-ear monitors I send native vocal with no effects, so I can hear my real singing and correct mistakes on the fly. Unit is very sturdy, built like a tank, and very reliable, after dozens of gigs not once it failed. Presets are fantastic if you want to adjust them for specific songs that require special effects like robot, or places that require more or less reverb. All in all, best of it's kind for the price.
