i was impressed with its ability to change from english to italian
sensorship: Agreed! That feature is only available on the Boss VE500-E/I model. They have one for Spanish, too! That's the Boss VE500-E/S model. With either model ... just switch it to the 'bilingual' mode. Great demo.
I wish I knew that before I ordered one. I got the Spanish version E/S model and I had to send it back and it took two more weeks because it had to reach the store in Mexico before they would ship the English version. Live and learn. 😂
You mean French haha
Valerias voice is really perfect! I love her music! ❤
She is perfect!
I love the sincerity of this woman, you can see by this she is a real artist and great singer too.
Thanks for the short and effective review :)
Im happy now to have bought it, and cant wait to use it...
Great video, I’m ordering one right now. Thanks
Its easy listening to the sound of your voice....good timings and breath taken.
I like it Valeria
I'm in love :)
She sings perfectly in tune, it'd be interesting to see how effective the autotune is on correcting the pitch of someone who isn't so perfectly in tune.
Charming and informative. I too am not a fan of pitch correct but when it's all been said and done YOU don't need pitch correction at all. After watching this video I have decided to invest in the ve 500. I have looked at several effects and harmony units and this one seems to provide the best all around tools to create some unique and interesting sounds Thanks again for the beautiful and intelligent review. I think I am a fan. Loved the Italian lyrics--very evocative. Keep up the good work. Jim
Excellent Demo 👍👍🎶🎶🎶
Great video! I am looking at purchasing this unit and this is the best video I've seem for explaining the features. None have really shown the harmony features well. Oh ... and you have a beautiful voice.
I believe you should demonstrate all the features (pitch correction) this poorly represents the module as your skipping key components, a review should be of all its capabilities.
yeh i came here cos i'm, looking for pitch correction for myself and this product.. and they skip it! DOH!
The pitch correction is actually a great tool for practicing… when you match your voice to the corrected output you end up singing in tune better when you don’t have pitch correction.
I’m glad as fuck she skiped that shit- if you can’t sing you can’t sing..... Completely agree with her
Exactly. What a crap review!
also get someone who has spent more than 5 minutes learning it!
Amazing. I like how it changes the language.
Thanks.
Nice Maton! 😎👍🏼
“I like singers who can actually hit the note” 😘😘😘 isn’t she lovelyyyyy
Beautiful voice. I've not heard her before but I will find out where I can hear more.

Nice voice, not sure she knows what are the main effects for vocals (eq, compression, de-essing)... there are no UA-cam reviews for this pedal, being one of the first I would have taken the opportunity to show its features in a very different way (a delayed distorted harmony makes very little sense).
@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses I'm a fan of hers, so I'll just share: valeriafrattini.bandcamp.com
Easy on the ears and eyes. 😊
Any guidance on how you got the unit to sound like 6:05? It's far from any preset that came with the ve-500, and the harmonies sound very smooth. I've been trying to get there but mine keeps coming out sounding robotic... Thanks!!
Nice Maton 😁
Only a few videos on youtube with harmonizing vs. everything else (no effects added) and I still wonder what vocal processor with straight forward harmonizing with slight pitch correction sounds like for at least 5 seconds? With singing words? Which one sounds 'the best'? All vocal harmonizers as well as Boss pedals and TC Helicon lack this straight forrward approach (usually lots of instruments and effects)?
By-the-way you have a great voice and look great too with loads of personality! Thanks.
Thomann, please tell me where I can listen to more music of Valeria!
She's on Facebook and Instagram. Also here: valeriafrattini.bandcamp.com
Awesome video! Need one of these! What is that awesome db meter in the back??
So, without effects, you are shamefully good! Lol
What is the decibel meter :o
I guess you demo’d the looper. It seems like fun, but will you use it, or are you using one?
Don‘t know, who she is, but she DEFINETLY needs no effects for her voice! Anyway, impressive technology by Boss.
I think you're right. It's a good mix to have great effects and a great performance so that the effects can let the voice shine though rather than disguise it.
Do you enjoy singing?
//Andy
Thomann Music I do. The question is: do THE OTHERS...? 🧐
@@ThomannsGuitarsBasses talk about this decibel meter, please
But effects are FUN! Lol, of course everything in moderation, especially if you have a beautiful voice that doesn’t “need” improvement. Then it’s about artistic choices (arrangements, mood, what the other instruments are doing, variety within a setlist...).
Great voice and great singer, but in the Harmony session, you need the adjust the pitch or use the instrument chords for vocal harmonys follows the pitch, because some notes sounded out of harmony. All the best and congratulations for video.
we dont care if you like singers who hit the right pitch or no ! just try the pitch feature to see if it they imporved it or left it like Boss v50 ...
You guys really failed at giving her credit and linking to her music.
Schöne Stimme, cooles Effektgerät...... aber was ist das für eine schöne kleine Westerngitarre?
This device is exciting. Is it possible to connect it with a keyboard?
Yes. Can connect to any midi controller as well.
What is that guitar"?
Mini Maton
Who is this artist? I can't find anything under just "Valeria" and there are no links.
Bat iz italian! 🤌
Cool. Can I sync this to my Octatrack mk2 via midi?
Check out a demo of the individual Effects here: ua-cam.com/video/lsHrRgevWsI/v-deo.html
Not all of us were blessed with perfect pitch. The pitch correction is why I just ordered this model among other features. 🙄
What is that guitar she's playing?
I think it‘s a Maton Mini
Mini Maton
What is the decibel meter
She can sing, no doubt about that, but we need to hear everyday singers. She would make anything sound good...me...not so much...but i refuse to use autotune!
Maybe its better if you learn more about the product at first!
oh ... and that delay
Nice video but the pitch correction would have been the most interesting.
I think if you are making a demo, you must test everything... If you personally don´t like it pitch correction, and your personal opinion prevails here...then you aren´t not the correct person to show us this product. Pitch correction is not only for loose singers, it can be used for stylish your vocals... Yes, I´m sure you are a great artist, but is not a good presentation...everything was very superficial and lacks of details
Didn't sound any different with or without enhanced on or off. This is not a very good sample of what this unit can do
If I listen to that vocal riff even one more time, I will surely kill myself!
Т.П.
im sorry but this is an advert on why not to buy this pedal. those harmonies : (
Are you review the product for others?? Or for yourself??? You don’t like autocorrect , so I will skip. Not cool ...
Wait… she literally skipped the pitch correct?! Omg wow. Great demo? 😂 probably didn’t want to be embarrassed by the pitch correct trigging on her because no one is perfect on pitch… which is why we don’t sound like robots lol
This demo turns the VE-500 very difficult to use. And actually its not.
sorry guys, but apart from valerias natural voice everything sounded really awful. but maybe there´s more in it that actually makes sense.
too much talking not enough showing!
Why over kill on the effects. It just sounds bad.
I am impressed of the singer's nasality. In a bad way!
Can't help thinking these are a bit gimmicky...Sounds awful sometimes.
Frustrating that gear is designed to be cheap and accessible. I supposed the thought will forever continue to be, If they put the best of everything in it, and actually made it good, nobody could afford it. We will probably never have the "limited edition" type of passion going into this type of gear like you do with guitars. So while your guitar tone can harmonize with the gods, your vocal tone will harmonize with a drive-thru order.
iangottmusic ~ yes, but where gear like this shines is when someone really knows how to dial & customize it. It has enough tweakability to make unique sounds that are appropriate for each person’s music. So I thinks :-)
somebody should have told her that she doesn't need to have her mouth glued to the microphone..
Do you give vocal lessons? I can pass on your expert advice.
//Andy
sure
There are reasons to and not to glue your lips to the microphone - it’s totally appropriate in a lot of circumstances. For all we know, she’s used to playing with a full band, in which case that may be a better approach…
Billie Eilish disagrees.
Another processor with no incredible presets.
Snake oil, lol ; ''tweak it and get a great sound''
Pass, also a shame they don't make these for people that
already know how to sing, the focus is on gimmicks and
auto tune, not incredible presets for live performers.
Total piece of crap
I sent it back
It was useless
Even when I got it figured out it sounded half assed
Nightmare
Got to laugh at people on here; "she's too good a singer, why not have "normal" singers"? There are plenty of crap singers meowing on UA-cam with this pedal and others like it. And they sound shit. Shit in, shit out. There's no "magic pedal" (yet) to make crap singers sound great. Find another hobby!
Take the frets off your guitar, Valeria. I like players who can hit the right notes without them, like a violin player.
Awful.
Yeah, hypocrite... you "don't like pitch correct", and prefer singers who can actually "hit the note" but you are ok with completely fabricating vocal harmonies. Look, a lot of singers can "hit the notes" perfectly... but in a 4 hour live show 5-7 nights a week, sometimes a singer's voice gets tired and their ears also become fatigued. Getting a little help from the box with a little pitch correction is not such a bad thing. It is just as legit as you using fabricated pitch perfect harmonies. P.S. you were slightly flat in a couple spots in this vid! Have a good day!
Settle down killer lol
