DISC TC Helicon VoiceLive Play GTX with Sennheiser e 835 fx

Full Description

Professional-quality vocals at home

Vocals are hard to perfect, taking more time to produce than any other part of the composition. The numbers of layered vocal tracks in a studio recording often run well into the double digits. Now you can put the same care into creating vocals live or at home with the VoiceLive Play.

VoiceLive Play gives you the opportunity to experience the sound you know and love from your favourite tracks with ease. Among its features are automatic backing harmonies, vocal double tracking, pristine EQ and compression, lush reverbs and hard-tuned robo-voices, all at the ready to make your vocals pop.

The VLOOP performance looper allows you to create a complete performance whilst turning effects on and off.

Instant guitar tone - no amp required!

The guitar effects in the VoiceLive Play GTX come from TC Electronic's Hall of Fame, as well as new algorithms from TC Electronic and TC-Helicon. The simple-to-use effects include Distortions, Flange, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, EQ and more! Play GTX features 10 amp tones inspired by famous Fender®, Mesa® and Marshall®, plus a special setting for acoustic guitars. All feature editable 3-band tone, compression and speaker emulation controls. You don't even have to worry about key, VoiceLive Play GTX listens to the Guitar input to set key automatically, giving you the perfect sounding Harmonies and Pitch Correction.

Mic control

With the e 835 fx, Sennheiser has made a version of its most popular cardioid dynamic vocal microphone for use with the VoiceLive Play GTX. User configurable, the Mic Control button allows you to switch presets or toggle HIT, LOOP and TALK functions whilst roaming the stage.

Hundreds of preset genres

It's a breeze to operate the VoiceLive Play GTX. Use the GENRE button to browse hundreds of presets and pick a style that suits you. VoiceLive will list the presets that fit your preference. If you're new to using effects, you'll quickly learn how to find the sound you're looking for with intuitive GENRES.

Download and create new favourites

If the hundreds of presets aren't enough for you, there are new and exciting presets available to download each month via VoiceSupport. You can create your own presets on the VoiceLive Play GTX and mark any as a favourite, creating a personal genre of choice effects for super-fast access.

Make it a HIT

HIT is a performance-inspired feature for building intensity into your vocal performance. Every preset gains an A/B function with the HIT button, simply press to add dazzling effects for the chorus or strip vocals down for the verse... the HIT is in your hands!

Practice and perform with your favourite tracks

All singers need practice, but that doesn't mean it can't be fun. VoiceLive Play has a dedicated Practice mode, able to analyse your performance in real-time to help you spot your vocal strengths and focus on the areas that need attention.

Practice by singing along with your favourite tracks, just plug in your mp3 player and use the Vocal Cancel feature to make your voice stand out over the vocals on the original track. You can also record and play back your singing using the USB connection to your computer.

Control and adapt

Embedded stereo RoomSense mics can control your harmonies from instruments nearby, replace the cabled mic for headphone practice or add ambience to your headphone mix. TC-Helicon's adaptive tone technology intelligently controls Shape EQ and Dynamics, providing the perfect tonal balance and add smooth dynamic control to fit in any mix.
