"TC-Helicon VoiceLive Play is outstanding!"

I had (and got rid of) the Boss VE-20 because it did not do what I needed - which was harmonies! I'm not sure why everyone likes that unit because it doesn't hold a candle to the TC-Helicon. I literally just have to plug my guitar into this unit, select a preset and activate harmonies with the touch of a button. It really doesn't get any easier. The only thing I don't like is the computer software interface to load the different presets. Everything get's listed together instead of the separate categories like they show on the unit display. There is no good way to organize the order of the presets either. Luckily, I only need about 2 presets to perform the songs I sing. I will rate the Manufacturer support in the middle (because I am forced to put something) even though I truly don't know because I haven't had to use it.

"Very capable for a solo performer"

I have used the VoiceLive acoustic version for almost a year playing in bars and some medium size venues. I run both acoustic and electric guitars through it. The primary effect for me is the vocal harmony hit. If I could improve anything it would be the foot switches. A larger raised pedal, like the Boss pedals, would be helpful in dark stages.

Musical Background:

50 years of playing in bands and solo. I play Guitar and vocals solo these days in bars and festivals.

Musical Style:

Classic rock & country, blues, Americana.

I haven't had this very long . I am amazed at what it does . I have now done songs I would never do with out this product . I even think I would actually sing in front of people ...lol . If you are looking for something to spice up your solo sound this just might be the thing you are looking for . It sure made my vocals sound better . I even think it was worth every penny I spent on it . Can't wait to figure out the looping thing ..

"Exactly as advertised"

I am definitely more the guitar player than singer. I am not a bad singer but have those spots where I always seem to miss the pitch. The pitch correction in this unit is fantastic. It has helped me immensely in just the couple days I have owned it. The Acoustic just comes to life with the acoustic portion of the pedal. Crisp voicing and pure heaven. I don't use a lot of effects on my acoustics. At most I may add a little reverb. Even with no effects thru this pedal my acoustic sounds amazing.

Musical Background:

mostly a hobbiest having played for 35 years. I play occasional gigs with friends.

"Great for studio not so much for stage"

Overall: 3 out of 5 stars

I love it for studio work but it doesn't get along very well with any of my live mixers. Basically just a harmony box if I use it live. It's a good product but I was disappointed in using it live.

I bought this with the hope it did half of what it claimed. I hooked it up and wow it was awesome I can tell you this is a must have for the acoustic guitar/ singer The only complaint I have is since I've had it I don't get no sleep I'm up all night singing and playing my guitar
