vocal effects pedals

[rickster]

Just wondering if anyone uses one live and what hey can do for you?

[tornandfrayed]

Very hard to deal with Live, you have to have a sound guy that is on it and the pedal has to be toned just right. Volume is a big one to, nature of the effects is usually prone to feedback.

Always fun to experiment with.

I know 1 guy who uses one. I had one and sold it. Me no likey.

Cause what kind of effect could you possibly use on those angelic vocs of yours?

I have a TC Helicon Voiceworks and used it in the the Lonewolf solo show. Harmonies, effects and program changes were all run by midi sequencer, so I didn't have to mess with it (same for guitar patches).

There is an optional 3-button footswitch that allows you do do different things like enable/disable harmonies or effects, patch up, patch down, etc. It isn't too difficult to operate, but combine that with operating a floor guitar processor and singing and playing and...well you get the idea.

I don't think it would be too difficult for a mic-holding vocalist to operate one with the footswitch, but it might interfere with the stage show, like a ball & chain. The key is programming it right.

If you have a regular sound guy, he may not like your adding FX at the stage. He will feel powerless and you will hear about it.

I'm not in need of a vocal processor, but that's a great deal. These are studio-quality, and not just 4-track in your basement studio, they use these things in the big leagues.--->JMS
