TASCAM TA-1VP Vocal Processor with Antares Auto-Tune Technology
From mixing down to performing live, the TA-1VP has the vocal effects and pitch correction to give you just the right sound you're looking for.
Overview
The TASCAM TA-1VP vocal processor was co-developed with Antares Audio Technologies to bring together everything you need for a polished, modern vocal sound. The rackmount processor includes a microphone preamp, compression, de-essing, microphone & tube modeling and Antares' world-famous Auto-Tune(TM) pitch correction. Perfect for live performance, house of worship or studio use, the TA-1VP brings your vocal sound into the 21st century.
A high-quality XLR microphone input is provided on the TASCAM TA-1VP front panel, with phantom power for condenser mics. Processing is laid out in simple-to-use blocks on the front panel, each with dedicated buttons and meters to show you exactly what's being done to the signal. Antares' microphone and tube modeling takes the input signal and gives it the character of another microphone, with a library of classics to choose from. The De-essing module removes sibilance from your signal before variable-knee compression and gating. A great-sounding digital EQ is last in the chain before output.
The Auto-Tune module can be set for any level of pitch correction, in a variey of user-selectable scales. All settings can be recalled through presets on the front panel or through MIDI. Balanced TRS input and outputs are located on the rear panel, including a Double Track out for simulating doubled vocals. A S/PDIF digital output is also provided.
Built for every audio application from live performance to studio mixdown, TASCAM's TA-1VP is the only hardware… read more processor with Auto-Tune technology for flawless vocal intonation.

"The PERFECT Mic Pre Amp for MPC"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I'm a Standalone MPC User, when I tell you THIS IS THE BEST Mic Pre Amp for the MPC. I really mean it! My vocal signal chain for this device is... Mic --> Gain In --> Mic Modeling --> Gate --> Gain Out --> MPC Line In. All I have to do is record into the AIR Compressor so my peak can be leveled and my vocals sound clean and professional. This device even let me save each setting for each of my microphones so now all I gotta do power in on and select my preset. I need to order another one so I can travel with the second device. I highly recommend it! Oh by the way if your purchasing this because of the Auto-Tune feature don't even bother and waste your money.
