@molltophil Hiya, Yes - the VoiceLive Touch has several tone presets for automatic EQ and compression. Whilst they're not completely editable as on the VoiceLive 2 they are definitely suitable for most uses.
@tchelicon I currently use the voicetone synth's hardtune for all my autotune needs, (I've come to admit I have pitch issues). :-) I'm considering upgrading to this....would I be able to select hardtune scale, etc. on the fly with this as well? for example a quick key change mid song?
Hey i've bought one, a couple of months ago and i'm loving it...the only problem is that i either get feedback or the rest of the band is coming through my microphone making everything muddy. Do you have some kind of tip for that?
I have a Voicelive Tocuh, BUT, i want to learn how to correct when working on several layers of sounds, add or Delete, and also how to work with the PC software and update or do things with the Voicelive, im still lost in that part.
Is there a link to answer my questions?Any extra help gives me a hand, i also want to use my electric guitar,like the one Kasper Falkenberg uses on his video, What is the link to the manual?
@yoshisuniverse Hiya, Yes, you can definitely use this to record and there are several ways this can be done. Check out the full manual for the VoiceLive Touch which is downloadable for free via the TC-Helicon website for more info.
@tchelicon I have the voice live touch but in the videos i have not seen how can you correct when you record several layers and you want to take out the last entry,
Joey, can you please send me the link to the manual and if there is a video on how to use the PC interface software and how to use it... im lost in that part of the story!!!
@ozzy4416 Hiya, Simply set the key you're using (or use midi/guitar) and the notes will correspond to the closest note you are singing. HardTune is a more robotic sounding effect as found in a lot of current popular music whereas the subtle autchromatic pitch correction is more for polishing your general vocal sound. Check out the manual which is downloadable for free via the TC-Helicon website for more details.
@musicnewalbum HIya, The VoiceLive Touch actually has more editability for harmonies than the Harmony-M. There are several options in both products but basically the Harmony -M is designed to be the most simple to use and cost effective option for creating harmonies via MIDI. The manuals for both products are available for download via the TC-Helicon website - it may be worth having a look at these for more info on what each unit is capable of.
@RideHanna Hiya, Just a thought - have you enabled phantom power as you will need this for the microphone you're using. You can do this in the setup menu which is entered by pressing and holding the "mix" button.
If this doesn't solve the issue then please don't hesitate to get in touch with TC-Helicon's support team.
@pjmuck Hiya, Unfortunately the loops are not stored on power cycle and are erased when restarting the unit. However, your favourite presets and tweaks to that preset can be stored.
What is the midi implementation on this? I'm seeing a lot of stopping of the guitar playing to hand tap buttons in this demo, which definitely wouldn't work for me. Could some or all of that be avoided with a midi foot controller or will only the proprietary 3 button foot switch work?
@pjmuck Hiya, Yes, you can definitely control many of the aspects of VoiceLive Touch via the Switch-3 footswitch or via MIDI. THe Switch -3 has several presets which are tailored to suit several common uses whereas there is also a full MIDI implementation list starting from page 28 of the VoiceLive Touch manual which can be downloaded for free via the TC-Helicon website.
@pjmuck Unfortunately I can't post links as comments in YouTube but if you search the support section of the TC-Helicon website you should find a link to the manual (for the MIDI implementation list) and also a page listing the Switch-3 presets on the support FAQ section. Hope this helps!
the VoiceLive Touch seems to have it all, since I was about to go for the singles (T1, R1 and D1 to start with), I don't see who would go for those anymore ?
Can you tell me why buy singles rather than VLT ? It's a mystery to me.
@freeblade99 Hiya, Some users may prefer the "plug and play" approach to the way the Singles have been designed. It really depends on what the user feels most comfortable with and is certainly handy when you're after specific single effects rather than a "one box" solution.
@tchelicon Thanks for the response, I really appreciate. Well, the problem is, I want it all : I like the "plug and play" approach and the discretion of the singles, but I'm really fond of the touch pad and the "all in one" solution as well... Hard decision, but I'll definitely go for one of those !
Hello TC Helicon. After having watched demos about harmonies, I like both but, please could you tell me which is better between voice live touch and voiceworks plus for making a "T pain/ Cher like" autotune effect? Thank you very much.
@concourselvis Hiya, For making the T-Pain / Cher effect you will need "Hardtune". This effect isn't available in the VoiceWorks Plus but it's definitely available in the VoiceLive Touch.
@tchelicon Thank you very much, my choice is close. And when using hardtune effect, does the Voicelive touch also feature the gender edition like the voicetone single C1 and can you make harmonies while keeping the hardtune? As my budget can be a bit more than a voicelivetouch, I'm hesitating between the voicelive touch and chaining those new single pedals (C1 and so on). Using loops is not absolutely important for me.
@concourselvis Hiya, You're very welcome. The VoiceLive Touch doesn't contain the gender ability as contained in the C1. However, you're definitely able to make harmonies while retaining the hardtune effect. I would suggest you try out all your options at your local TC-Helicon dealer before making a final decision :).
@jolugam1 Hiya, This doesn't sound right. I would definitely recommend that you get in touch with TC-Helicon's support team so they can toubleshoot this with you. Simply follow the directions in the support section of the TC-Helicon website to drop them a line.
Baad product, just bought one, its like you guys came up with some awesome ideas then built the thing, didn't work properly and was like "stuff it, we'll try again next time".
First and foremost... IT DOESN'T HAVE AN ON/OFF SWITCH!!!
It creates a bad hiss making it impossible to use at a gig with foldback, the output is distorted and the midi implement forgets to work if the unit is doing heaps of other things at the same time.
and its not just mine, i went back to the store and tried every one!
@CamNacson@CamNacson Hiya, Sorry to hear you had a bad experience with the VoiceLive Touch. I can assure you that the issues you mentioned are not normal and many users are nejoying their units without the problems that you've mentioned. It may have been a setup issue that caused this, did you contact support? Can I also ask where you purchased the product?
HELP!! I'm trying to decide between the voicetone touch and the voicetone synth! What im looking for is the t-pain hardtune effects for live gigs and the harmonies for studio use. The harmony sounds from this unit but what about the hardtune effects? Cant get a demonstration online anywhere:(
Or would i be better off buying the separate synth unit?
@Bigduck1212 Hiya, The hardtune effect on VoiceLive Touch is directly comparable to the one found on Synth. The only difference with Synth is that it's the only TC-Helicon unit that has a Vocoder inside. If you really want vocoding then Synth is the one to go for. However, if it is the actual T-Pain effect you are after then this is only hardtune (not vocoding) and the VoiceLive Touch will do this without any issues whatsoever.
@Bigduck1212 HIya, There is a full MIDI implementation list in the manual that is a vailable for free download on the TC-Helicon website (starting from page 24). Hope this helps.
@LightsOutMan Hiya, While you can get close to that effect by using the transducer effects and hardtune in the VoiceLive Touch - I would suggest that what you really need is a vocoder. You might be interested in checking out the VoiceTone Synth as it's excellent for these types of effects.
This is a really cool gadget and I would love to use one for the looping, but I really want to do pitch shifting so that my voice sounds a lot lower. Can this do it?
An example of what I am looking for is with the live version of "We Share Our Mother's health" by The Knife. The female vocalist goes form singing in her normal voice to a very deep vocal tone.
youtube.com/watch?v=yOVMzfHAGec skip up to 2min 20 sec mark to see what i mean
please could you tell me what's the best between a voice live touch and a voiceworks plus(weak and strong points from each of them)? Can we use any voicemodelling-like effects on the voice live touch?
@concourselvis Hiya, I may not be able to cover all of the points here - the best way would probably be to check out the manuals for both products via free download at TC-Helicon's website. However, here's a little info to get you started...
@concourselvis The VoiceLive Touch doesn’t have the same voice modelling ability as VoiceWorks Plus although it does have the ability to alter gender on the harmony voices. There are many differences between these 2 units which is mainly due to the fact that the VL Touch uses the new natural play algorithms as found in VoiceLive 2 and is a much newer unit featuring looping capabilities also.
@Chicago10281 Hiya, You sure can :). If you're wanting harmonies with your backing track then you'd want to send your backing track via the AUX input.
@concourselvis The VoiceLive Touch is designed for the singer to have control while performing live via a touch screen whilst the VoiceWorks Plus is a rack unit which makes it slightly more geared towards other settings - you could still use it live though and many people do. They are both fantastic products but each have a different approach.
Maybe the best thing to do is try both units out at a dealer near you.
Hi Joey. How does this compare to the Voicetone Create XT. I'm not sure which one to get. The touchpad feature isn't a big deal to me so I'm really just concerned about effects and creativity.
@djwinger2003 Hiya, If you're just after vocal effects and adaptive tone/eq/compression/de-essing and would be happy with some general tweaking options rather than specific editability then the Create XT is a great choice. It's simple, easy to use and designed for you to use your ears to tweak the presets to your liking. There are no harmony features.
The VoiceLive Touch offers harmony, looping and a little bit of specific editability on key areas.
Thanks Joey! After watching a Voicelive Touch demonstration by proaudiostar / winksound I think I'm sold on the Touch. Great bit of kit!
Just one more question: Are all the features on the Create XT also available on the Touch? For instance you mentioned adaptive tone, eq, compression and de-essing.
Can you hook up a keyboard and a guitar at the same or is it for one instrument? I'm a solo performer and I switch btw keys and guitar. I'd like to have effects and harmonies for each instrument. I saw the Voicelive 2 also and didn't know if that would be better fit for me. Thanks
@mcs88keys Hiya, Yes you can connect both at the same time and define which one is to be used per preset. Basically you can set a preset as guitar and another as midi - this way it will know which one to use for which song. The VoiceLive 2 remains the most comprehensive product we do. However, it is really a choice of what you feel personally suits you and your needs. I definitely suggest trying both out at your local TC-Helicon dealer.
@tchelicon Dear Joey, Can you please give me your expert advice on what settings to use for a nice reverb for lead voice??. I have been trying to find one but sometimes there is too much and sometimes too little. Thanks in advance for the l helpful hint. Oh by the way I bought the Voice Live Touch and am looking forward to purchasing the special mic that just came out by TC Helicon!
@natedawg4lyfe Hiya, VoiceLive Touch comes with over 200 factory presets. There is a great FAQ in the support section of TC-Helicon's website that does a comparison of features between VoiceLive 2 and VoiceLive Touch which you might find helpful (sorry, YouTube doesn't allow me to paste links here).
I have another question. Which inputs can be used as the basis for Harmony? On voice live 2, I believe this is: guitar, aux, scale. Does Voicelive Touch support those too? Also, can the loop itself be the basis for harmony? for example, if i record 1 bar of G and 1 bar of C from a guitar and then loop it - can i sing over that and have the G/C loop drive the harmonies?
@TheCorbomites Hiya, The inputs that you named can all be used for the generation of harmony voices. Also, you can use the midi inputs for this aswell! VoiceLive Touch supports all of these different types of harmony generation.The loop is only sent to the output so it is unable to be used for further processing within the unit - great suggestion though. I have forwarded this on to the TC-Helicon office on your behalf.
I am lead singer of a 6 pc band but I don't play an instrument. I already have VoiceLive1, and its great, but I only use it for harmonies.VoiceLive Touch seems a great option...my question is: can the keys of the songs be stored in memory as in VoiceLive 1?
i read the manual on-line wrt looping. However, there is something that is not clear. If the total time for mono loops is 60 seconds, then how does that relate to overdubs (layers).
For example, if you start a loop and then play/sing for 60 seconds - presumably that 60 second loop will play back forever if you want.
Can you then add additional layers to that 60 second loop, or are you done at that point? ideally you could overdub as much as you want and then the loop just merges.
I am interested in Voice Live Touch but I will not need the looping feature - Do you have another product that just gives me the harmonies, gender changes and effects only? I sing with a six pc band whereas I am the only singer - I only want to use this in live performances for effects and harmony.
@micheledio123 Hiya, Gotcha. You could check out the VoiceLive 2 via TC-Helicon's website. You could also go for one of the single VoiceTone pedals (Harmony-G XT - guitar triggered harmonies or Harmony-M - Midi controlled harmonies... but neither of them include the gender changing feature).
I've spent the entire week trying to find one single unit of your products on display, so I could actually try it in person, but I've had no luck so far. I even went to the biggest Guitar Center and SamAsh in hollywood, and even they didn't have one on display. One salesperson did finally open one box, but he just handed me the manual and walked away! Not a single person knows anything about these products.Would you be able to suggest a location in LA where I could try the units?
Hi I have a question to ask? I have a VoiceLive 2 but not if you change it for the VoiceLive touch I would like to know what you think about my question
@JoelOlivaresMusic Hiya Joel, The VoiceLive 2 and VoiceLive Touch are completely different creatures and the VoiceLive Touch shoulkdn't be thought of as an upgrade to VoiceLive 2. The VoiceLive Touch features looping and the touchscreen and is designed with looping at the forefront.
@JoelOlivaresMusic You still have the ability to edit some important parameters like style and gender - but the VoiceLive 2 remains the most editable product we make. Many customers will probably want to use both units together for the ultimate experience. I'll send you a link to a comparison chart via a message :).
" I Gave the greatest review for for voice live 2 on guitar centers website " JW is my name & I hope they appreciate the promotion because i would like to get another unit (VL2). I have just one question though, does the voice live touch have harmony hold as well? Thanks TC helicon, a very cool product. Keep up the great work.
Hiya all, Just to let you know the manuals are now up on the TC-Helicon website under the support section which you can download for free to really get an in depth idea of what this product can do and how to use it. You can also keep up to date on new announcements via TC-Helicon's blog.
I checked out the specs on the voicelive touch: I didn't find pitch correction, rhythmic effects, digital I/O, only 1 MIDI port instead of 3. Voicelive 2 doesn't have VLOOP or touch/slidescreen which are awesome.
What is the USB used for? Editing? or can it support direct audio into the computer sequencer like Cubase?
@ncheriyan Hiya, The USB Connector is used for connecting the VoiceLive Touch to a computer, for version updates and MIDI communication. Note that the USB
What are the differences between Voicelive 2 Ver 1.2 and this? (Obviously Voice Touch is touch pad which is great with the 60 sec looping)...but what else does one have the other doesn't? (eg: do they both have the same number of simultaneous effects block, does Voice Touch have rhythmic effects from Ver 1.2 of Voicelive2, etc?)
@ncheriyan Hiya, The manual for VoiceLive Touch should be online for download mid September. I would recommend you wait until that's available as there is a lot of info to cover here. VoiceLive 2 still remains the most editable and powerful vocal processor on the market today. VoiceLive Touch is a completely different creature geared more towards looping, harmony and effects live via the touch screen.
This looks like a cool product. I just bought a Voicelive 2 and while I like it, the floor aspect is making me rethink whether I want to get this instead. I am a keyboard player...I realize that with the footswitches are excellent for guitarists, but being a keyboard player, I am not too concerned about it.
If the # of simultaneous effects and the types of effects are same as voicelive2, I might go with this instead.
@ncheriyan Hiya, You should check out the manual for VoiceLive Touch which is now available for free download via the TC-Helicon website. This will give you all the info you need and help you make the decision which is right for you. If you need any more help after this, feel free to geive me a shout anytime.
hi! so i´m really keen on this wonderful touch pad!
i want to ask this: concerning the harmony preset, how does it work, if ur not using an instrument to control the harmonies? Does the Touch detect automatically the note/pitch, and acompanies me along my singing?
Or do i need an instrument, like say a keybord, to do such?
i´m not that good of an instrumentist, so i was hoping the Touch would harmonize whatever i sing, without the need of a midi instrument..
and can i set, for example, C, Dminor and G, to use in one specific song, and recall them whenever i need them, just by touching a specific key on the Touch?
would it take too much time to change the keys/scales that i require, or can i pre-set them like i would do with the effects??
or maybe it would be easier to just get a tiny keybord to "play" the harmonies i am looking for??.. thanks for ur patience =)
to "tell" the Touch what key or scale i pretend in harmonies, is it enough just a key in the keybord, or would i need to do a chord? Or can i do both?
Great demo, Tom! I'm curious if the Aux input would be suitable for a digital piano or synth. Also, can the aux input be looped? It would be way cool to put in some loop layers with Rhodes, vibes, piano, whatever (voice, too) and then play/sing on top. Even without looping on the Aux input, I could do most of my solo gigs and leave the mixer home. I'd use the VoiceLive Touch to mix my digital piano and voice, the run the stereo out to a pair of powered speakers. I currently use a Harmony M.
@rodtompkinsmusic Hiya, thanks for the positive feedback, glad you liked Tom's demo - I'll certainly pass that onto him :).Yes, the Aux in will work with other instruments and it is looped.
@metatron1274 Hiya, Unfortunately there is no tweakable parametric EQ in the VoiceLive Touch, however there are 10 tone styles that give variations on the amount of high frequency gain as well as the state of the adaptive gate.
This may sound like a dumb question but could you play a saxophone through a mic connected to this unit and still get the harmonies? I wonder if you get a horn section from the one horn :)
@magoo72thinline Hiya Magoo, Yes - it is possible to do this. I have just sent you a message with a link to a great example of this with a VoiceLive 2 (it hasn't been tried with the VoiceLIve Touch yet, however I would imagine it would work just as well!). However, please still bear in mind that this product was specifically designed for voice so we cannot guarantee any results with other input sources :).
and anotehr question: does this product has the function mix 'n' match...? so i can chose the reverb i want and combining it with the delay i want, etc....is here the possibility to decide if a 3rd or a 5th harmony voice is female or male?so a editing for harmony voices? thanks
GREAT, REALLY....i want it....but how can I use it i i am a rock n rol frontman? is there a special footswich to control it using my foot?....so i can program it at home and usig their effects using a pedal form....
@metatron1274 Hiya, One of the key features of the VoiceLive Touch is that you can easily mount the unit on your mic stand and use the touchscreen to change settings "on-the-fly" as opposed to tap dancing around a floor unit. When the optional Switch-3 is added you can control certain functions via your feet if you so desire.
@metatron1274 VoiceLive Touch is not genre dependant, there's certainally a host of effects that you'd find useful on a rock and roll gig! Do stay tuned, there's more videos to come which will reveal more of VoiceLive Touch's secrets.
This is probably the coolest old guy ever.

However, you're definitely able to make harmonies while retaining the hardtune effect. I would suggest you try out all your options at your local TC-Helicon dealer before making a final decision :).

H20s45 11 months ago
Baad product, just bought one, its like you guys came up with some awesome ideas then built the thing, didn't work properly and was like "stuff it, we'll try again next time".
First and foremost... IT DOESN'T HAVE AN ON/OFF SWITCH!!!
It creates a bad hiss making it impossible to use at a gig with foldback, the output is distorted and the midi implement forgets to work if the unit is doing heaps of other things at the same time.
and its not just mine, i went back to the store and tried every one!

@CamNacson @CamNacson Hiya, Sorry to hear you had a bad experience with the VoiceLive Touch. I can assure you that the issues you mentioned are not normal and many users are nejoying their units without the problems that you've mentioned. It may have been a setup issue that caused this, did you contact support? Can I also ask where you purchased the product?

HELP!! I'm trying to decide between the voicetone touch and the voicetone synth! What im looking for is the t-pain hardtune effects for live gigs and the harmonies for studio use. The harmony sounds from this unit but what about the hardtune effects? Cant get a demonstration online anywhere:(
Or would i be better off buying the separate synth unit?
Bigduck1212 1 year ago
@Bigduck1212 Hiya, The hardtune effect on VoiceLive Touch is directly comparable to the one found on Synth. The only difference with Synth is that it's the only TC-Helicon unit that has a Vocoder inside. If you really want vocoding then Synth is the one to go for. However, if it is the actual T-Pain effect you are after then this is only hardtune (not vocoding) and the VoiceLive Touch will do this without any issues whatsoever.

LightsOutMan 1 year ago
@LightsOutMan Hiya, While you can get close to that effect by using the transducer effects and hardtune in the VoiceLive Touch - I would suggest that what you really need is a vocoder. You might be interested in checking out the VoiceTone Synth as it's excellent for these types of effects.

This is a really cool gadget and I would love to use one for the looping, but I really want to do pitch shifting so that my voice sounds a lot lower. Can this do it?
An example of what I am looking for is with the live version of "We Share Our Mother's health" by The Knife. The female vocalist goes form singing in her normal voice to a very deep vocal tone.

@gzussturbo Hiya, The unit does allow you to change gender on your harmony voices but unfortunately not on the lead.

Hello,
please could you tell me what's the best between a voice live touch and a voiceworks plus(weak and strong points from each of them)? Can we use any voicemodelling-like effects on the voice live touch?
The prices are quiet the same between both !
Thank you.
concourselvis 1 year ago
@concourselvis Hiya, I may not be able to cover all of the points here - the best way would probably be to check out the manuals for both products via free download at TC-Helicon's website. However, here's a little info to get you started...
tchelicon 1 year ago
@concourselvis The VoiceLive Touch doesn’t have the same voice modelling ability as VoiceWorks Plus although it does have the ability to alter gender on the harmony voices. There are many differences between these 2 units which is mainly due to the fact that the VL Touch uses the new natural play algorithms as found in VoiceLive 2 and is a much newer unit featuring looping capabilities also.

tchelicon 1 year ago
@concourselvis The VoiceLive Touch is designed for the singer to have control while performing live via a touch screen whilst the VoiceWorks Plus is a rack unit which makes it slightly more geared towards other settings - you could still use it live though and many people do. They are both fantastic products but each have a different approach.
Maybe the best thing to do is try both units out at a dealer near you.

Hi Joey. How does this compare to the Voicetone Create XT. I'm not sure which one to get. The touchpad feature isn't a big deal to me so I'm really just concerned about effects and creativity.
djwinger2003 1 year ago
@djwinger2003 Hiya, If you're just after vocal effects and adaptive tone/eq/compression/de-essing and would be happy with some general tweaking options rather than specific editability then the Create XT is a great choice. It's simple, easy to use and designed for you to use your ears to tweak the presets to your liking. There are no harmony features.
The VoiceLive Touch offers harmony, looping and a little bit of specific editability on key areas.
tchelicon 1 year ago
@djwinger2003 I'd suggest trying both options out at a store near you to see what feels right for you personally.

Can you hook up a keyboard and a guitar at the same or is it for one instrument? I'm a solo performer and I switch btw keys and guitar. I'd like to have effects and harmonies for each instrument. I saw the Voicelive 2 also and didn't know if that would be better fit for me. Thanks
mcs88keys 1 year ago
@mcs88keys Hiya, Yes you can connect both at the same time and define which one is to be used per preset. Basically you can set a preset as guitar and another as midi - this way it will know which one to use for which song. The VoiceLive 2 remains the most comprehensive product we do. However, it is really a choice of what you feel personally suits you and your needs. I definitely suggest trying both out at your local TC-Helicon dealer.
Best wishes,

I have another question. Which inputs can be used as the basis for Harmony? On voice live 2, I believe this is: guitar, aux, scale. Does Voicelive Touch support those too? Also, can the loop itself be the basis for harmony? for example, if i record 1 bar of G and 1 bar of C from a guitar and then loop it - can i sing over that and have the G/C loop drive the harmonies?
TheCorbomites 1 year ago
@TheCorbomites Hiya, The inputs that you named can all be used for the generation of harmony voices. Also, you can use the midi inputs for this aswell! VoiceLive Touch supports all of these different types of harmony generation.The loop is only sent to the output so it is unable to be used for further processing within the unit - great suggestion though. I have forwarded this on to the TC-Helicon office on your behalf.

i read the manual on-line wrt looping. However, there is something that is not clear. If the total time for mono loops is 60 seconds, then how does that relate to overdubs (layers).
For example, if you start a loop and then play/sing for 60 seconds - presumably that 60 second loop will play back forever if you want.
Can you then add additional layers to that 60 second loop, or are you done at that point? ideally you could overdub as much as you want and then the loop just merges.
TheCorbomites 1 year ago
I am interested in Voice Live Touch but I will not need the looping feature - Do you have another product that just gives me the harmonies, gender changes and effects only? I sing with a six pc band whereas I am the only singer - I only want to use this in live performances for effects and harmony.
micheledio123 1 year ago
@micheledio123 Hiya, Gotcha. You could check out the VoiceLive 2 via TC-Helicon's website. You could also go for one of the single VoiceTone pedals (Harmony-G XT - guitar triggered harmonies or Harmony-M - Midi controlled harmonies... but neither of them include the gender changing feature).

I've spent the entire week trying to find one single unit of your products on display, so I could actually try it in person, but I've had no luck so far. I even went to the biggest Guitar Center and SamAsh in hollywood, and even they didn't have one on display. One salesperson did finally open one box, but he just handed me the manual and walked away! Not a single person knows anything about these products.Would you be able to suggest a location in LA where I could try the units?

@JoelOlivaresMusic You still have the ability to edit some important parameters like style and gender - but the VoiceLive 2 remains the most editable product we make.

I checked out the specs on the voicelive touch: I didn't find pitch correction, rhythmic effects, digital I/O, only 1 MIDI port instead of 3. Voicelive 2 doesn't have VLOOP or touch/slidescreen which are awesome.
What is the USB used for? Editing? or can it support direct audio into the computer sequencer like Cubase?
ncheriyan 1 year ago
@ncheriyan Hiya, The USB Connector is used for connecting the VoiceLive Touch to a computer, for version updates and MIDI communication. Note that the USB

TCHELICON,
What are the differences between Voicelive 2 Ver 1.2 and this? (Obviously Voice Touch is touch pad which is great with the 60 sec looping)...but what else does one have the other doesn't? (eg: do they both have the same number of simultaneous effects block, does Voice Touch have rhythmic effects from Ver 1.2 of Voicelive2, etc?)
ncheriyan 1 year ago
@ncheriyan Hiya, The manual for VoiceLive Touch should be online for download mid September. I would recommend you wait until that's available as there is a lot of info to cover here. VoiceLive 2 still remains the most editable and powerful vocal processor on the market today. VoiceLive Touch is a completely different creature geared more towards looping, harmony and effects live via the touch screen.
Best wishes,

This looks like a cool product. I just bought a Voicelive 2 and while I like it, the floor aspect is making me rethink whether I want to get this instead. I am a keyboard player...I realize that with the footswitches are excellent for guitarists, but being a keyboard player, I am not too concerned about it.
If the # of simultaneous effects and the types of effects are same as voicelive2, I might go with this instead.

hi! so i´m really keen on this wonderful touch pad!
i want to ask this: concerning the harmony preset, how does it work, if ur not using an instrument to control the harmonies? Does the Touch detect automatically the note/pitch, and acompanies me along my singing?
Or do i need an instrument, like say a keybord, to do such?
i´m not that good of an instrumentist, so i was hoping the Touch would harmonize whatever i sing, without the need of a midi instrument..
Thanks!!

oh ok, so i can set different key/scales? nice!
and can i set, for example, C, Dminor and G, to use in one specific song, and recall them whenever i need them, just by touching a specific key on the Touch?
would it take too much time to change the keys/scales that i require, or can i pre-set them like i would do with the effects??
or maybe it would be easier to just get a tiny keybord to "play" the harmonies i am looking for??.. thanks for ur patience =)
dogmiagy 1 year ago
@tchelicon
sorry, one more thing:
to "tell" the Touch what key or scale i pretend in harmonies, is it enough just a key in the keybord, or would i need to do a chord? Or can i do both?

Great demo, Tom! I'm curious if the Aux input would be suitable for a digital piano or synth. Also, can the aux input be looped? It would be way cool to put in some loop layers with Rhodes, vibes, piano, whatever (voice, too) and then play/sing on top. Even without looping on the Aux input, I could do most of my solo gigs and leave the mixer home. I'd use the VoiceLive Touch to mix my digital piano and voice, the run the stereo out to a pair of powered speakers. I currently use a Harmony M.

@metatron1274 Hiya, One of the key features of the VoiceLive Touch is that you can easily mount the unit on your mic stand and use the touchscreen to change settings "on-the-fly" as opposed to tap dancing around a floor unit. When the optional Switch-3 is added you can control certain functions via your feet if you so desire.

@metatron1274 VoiceLive Touch is not genre dependant, there's certainally a host of effects that you'd find useful on a rock and roll gig! Do stay tuned, there's more videos to come which will reveal more of VoiceLive Touch's secrets.
