billroperThe new toy which I mentioned previously was pulled out on Friday night at Chambanacon to great amusement.
It's a TC-Helicon VoiceLive Touch. It's a vocal processor, harmony generator, and looping device that a guitarist can attach to his mic stand and use when performing live. We had fun playing around with the presets and giving folks a turn at the mic.
Unfortunately, the only way I could get it into the house sound with the cords I had available was to take a line out into the hotel system's mic in, so the signal was really too hot and tended to overload the PA.
But it's a really cute toy. And I've found the preset that sounds like CSN. :)

Perhaps not, as they say on Echo Bazaar.

More of a fun toy than anything else, not sure about the hype on Digitech's website. Then when Teresa heard the harmony vocals shift perfectly under Trouble when I hit the chord change, and she looked at me and said, "You're not taking that back!".
