Any vocalists here ever try one of these?

It sounds pretty cool, it's an effects processor the vocalist controls on the stage, the harmony generator sounds pretty neat.

You can watch a live demo here, you'll need Quicktime.

I tried it at Guitar Center and to be honest I didnt like it. It was not easy to configure and it just wasnt for me.

I got this instead:
Digitech VOCAL 300 Vocal Effects Processor

It's quite a bit cheaper, does it have programable harmonies?

 

[Archmagician]

Nope it doesnt. But the programmable harmonies on the other unit are NOT easy to program. Its definitely NOT something I would want to use live.

If you are planning on using it for your Floyd Tribute band, I would think strongly about just training your bandmates to sing background vocals. LOL

This is just my opinion though, go down to Guitar Center and spend an hour or so messing with the thing and maybe you might like it.

I have lots of electronic toys, it should be no problem. What's great about the Helicon is the voicing, great warm sounding reverbs and delays. You can plug it into a midi keyboard then even if you sing off key it automatically puts you in key. Can't go wrong!
