µMod

          µMod, pronounced “micro mod” contains effects that chorus, flange or otherwise modulate the signal. These effects can range from subtle to extreme.

Delay

          Also known as Echo, delay repeats the input sound in various ways, from single “taps” to multiple panned asynchronous repeats. Often, delay is mistaken for reverb in a song. It’s typical in a recording to use a small amount of both delay and reverb to create the desired spatial effect.

Reverb

          Short for Reverberation, reverb simulates an acoustic space like a concert hall or a bathroom. Typically, slower songs use longer reverb and faster songs use shorter reverb.

Harmony

          Likely the most popular and impressive of our effects suite, Harmony creates up to 8 voices of harmony (varies by product), based on your vocal input and surrounds you with professional sounding backup singers. Once you’ve added harmony to your performance, we think you’ll never want to sing without it.

Double

          Doubling creates an effect that makes your voice sound “larger” in the mix. It’s an extremely popular effect in a wide variety of musical styles from Pop to Hip-Hop and everything in between.

For more information on Doubling or “double tracking” see: Wikipedia Double Tracking

HardTune

          Some people know it as the Cher or T-Pain effect. We call it HardTune. It’s a very aggressive form of pitch correction that forces the voice to “jump” from one note to the next in an almost robotic way. The effect works the best when confined to a set scale, where the intervals between notes are more noticeable. To get the most out of the effect, you’ll need to adapt your singing style to help accentuate the way that your voice shifts from note to note. Try sliding between notes.

Transducer

          Any effect that provides overdrive, distortion or filter falls under Transducer effects. You’ll find effects like Megaphone, Radio, Amplifier Emulation and more here. Always take care when using transducer effects in a live situation. Due to the extreme gains and eq’s imparted on the signal, these effects are very prone to feedback.

Total Harmony Control

          Never worry about your key when selecting harmonies. VoiceLive Play actually listens to your MP3 player (via AUX link) or your computer (via USB). And our embedded RoomSenseTM mics can control your harmonies simply from the sounds of nearby instruments.

Dial in Your Custom Sound

          When you choose an effect you’ll immediately see a unique icon making it easier to quickly find the sound you’re looking for. We call it icon based editing - it's intuitive and simple to use. You easily move through screens, pick your style, tweak some parameters and, voila, you now have your own vocal sound which you can recall any time.

Transform Your Singing with Loops

          The VLOOP performance looper allows you to create vocal loops for solo jamming or impressive layered live performances. VLOOP is also handy for soundcheck: record a short phrase and walk out into the audience to check levels while your “virtual you” plays!

Your Personal Engineer - Adaptive Tone

          Adaptive Tone technology intelligently controls Shape EQ and Dynamics (Compression & De-ess) to provide the perfect tonal balance and add smooth dynamic control to fit in any mix. Best of all it’s easy: just set and forget. An adaptive gate can also be added to help suppress feedback and reduce bleed.

RoomSense Mics

          Embedded stereo RoomSense mics can control your harmonies from instruments nearby, replace the cabled mic for headphone practice or add a bit of room ambiance to your headphone mix.

More Mic, More Control

          Now you can control your FX from a mic engineered for the sonic realities of modern vocal performance. Add the TC Helicon MP-75, or the Sennheiser e835 FX.

Extend FX Control with Stompbox Expansion

          Add a Switch-3 accessory pedal to your setup to extend your on-the-fly control of VoiceLive Play’s features. Put Delay on the first switch, your favorite Harmony on the second, and a Scale/Key shortcut on the third – or any custom combination of Vocal FX - or even Looping.

VoiceSupport

          VoiceLive Play will evolve with you - VoiceSupport gives you new FX presets, new firmware updates, and maintains your personal database of presets. All you need is a Mac or Windows computer with a USB input.
