Nice sounds out of the VL3. This demo actually makes me think I could use this harmonizer. Every other demo I've seen the harmonies sound like chipmunks!

I've had (and sold) the Vocalist Live 4 and the TC Helicon VoiceLive because the tracking wasn't great and the choice of harmonies was sometimes pretty strange...definitely too inconsistent for live use.

@BullhornGuy first, thanks for checking out the vid and for the positive feedback! I know what you mean about the 'chipmunks' - I've also used or tested nearly every harmonizer out there (specifically the units that trigger from guitar, not from midi) and I agree that tracking and realism are the key elements of a usable unit. I also own the VLPro (extended range of two octaves above and below with four voices - and it has even better realism than the VL3) - all that said...

...all that said...I do have to work around the choices the unit makes when there is more than one option it could choose... it takes a lot of practice and revision. Also, to avoid the 'chipmunks' I usually always sing the lowest part with my own voice so the higher harmonies don't get weird, I do not use any pitch correction nor do I use any of the 'persona' settings. I also find that adjusting my natural resonance (watch out for nasal tones :) can drastically improve realism. Peace!
