TC-Helicon 996-350011 Overview

The VoiceLive from TC Helicon provides all the processing required to treat vocals and create harmonies in the studio or on the road, housed in a rugged, road-capable foot pedal form. Eight footswitches and large LED/LCD displays provide total control while delivering solid visual feedback.

The unit has a high quality microphone input that can supply 48V phantom power for use with condenser microphones. The VOSTM Limiter, an analog optical limiter developed by TC-Helicon and optimized for voice, ensures that the microphone input cannot be distorted while at the same time maintaining premium sound quality.

Aside for processing the lead voice and generating vocal harmonies, the VoiceLive also has a three-band EQ for additional tonal shaping and a compressor/gate for dynamic control. An assignable footswitch can generate "tap-tempo" based delay and the outputted signal can be passed through a reverb processor.

An optional expression/volume pedal input, S/PDIF digital input/output and full MIDI implementation round out a very complete vocal processing package built around TC-Helicon's acclaimed rack mounted vocal processors.
