Above two hundred choral effects are now inside easy reach gratitude to VoiceLive Touch from TC-Helicon.TC-Helicon has brought that kind of experience to the 9 x 4 x 7 inch VoiceLive Touch where parameters are enabled and disabled by taps and double taps and options are chosen with the slither of a finger across the acrylic touch panel display.
The interface features six effects blocks at the top which are used to shape the voice using such things as µMod chorale or flange, up to 2500ms delay and 30 pre-configured Reverb styles. Under that sits the LED display, mix button and record followed by the prearranged or mix up slider and incremental up or down keys.
To the bottom right is a functional “Talk” button which allows the performer to temporarily bypass the effects to connect with viewers. In all there are over 200 presets to decide from, including auto pitch correction and a Global Tone feature that tailors adaptive EQ, compression and de-ess to a user’s voice. Up to 25 custom favorites can also be put aside.
The unit features a mono/stereo recital looper that allows the layering of sounds to enrich and add dimension to a choral recital and the VoiceLive Touch gives vocalists the capability to create up to 25 separate loops with instant undo and redo functionality. Guitar vocalists advantage from devoted reverb and µMod effects styles as well as a tuner and can get grip of an optional three button footswitch to make the device fond at ground level too.
The effects engine that powered the company’s popular VoiceLive 2 choral effects stomp box has been given a touchscreen improved and mic stand usability in the form of the new VoiceLive Touch effects processor. To put the rubber covered bent aluminum and die-cast metal device within easy reach, TC-Helicon has included an integrated microphone mount which allows the unit to slither onto the stand and lock in position in seconds.
While the VoiceLive Touch may well give some assistance to those with questionable tonal delivery, it will find its most influential application in the hands of those who by now belt out a finely tuned choral performance.
