@@tbinc.9160 I didn’t have one before. I used it for a month and haven’t switched it on since. It’s awesome but I don’t have the keyboard skills to make the most of it
i see, i started not to long ago, and once you learn some scales it really comes along nicely, best thing is to just put on some headphones and try to play some of your favorite songs
This is so cool... your reaction when you play the first lower notes... exactly the same here... all those videos can`t show the full power this beast has.
@@MoCheez its really different. We all know what a golden throat is. Its Nottingham special. It is the Name. And the grey 1823m driver. But with the lower lower notes of a minimoog you can Blog it away very quickly.... But the Talkstar is really good in that. Very powerfull and very save. But the price for is very expensive... i got it much cheaper from Fingazz at the beginning of the Talkstar Story... thats the reason for why I got it. And I have to say.... there is no other Talkbox which can compare with the Talkstar. Only some real Custom made Talkboxes with the perfekt pimped Crossovers in it. But not many people can build Talkboxes like that. If you know someone who own a Talkstar. Test it.... its really crazy. My custom boxes gettin very dusty now. By the way Cheesy you are one of the greatest Talkboxers we have on this Planet... you...and your Golden Throat and your amp.... you need no Talkstar. But... its very cool to play with it. It makes alot fun playin extremly low notes with alot Power and no risk that the driver will blow away.
Ugh i want one so bad. Dream music gear right here. The driver in this is insane and the circuitry is insane. The depth of the lows and clarity of the highs is unmatched. Sadly, so is the price. One day ill buy one
You can actually make your own version of this using a decent-quality horn driver with wide frequency response (old skool vintage JBL etc), which is what Byron "Mr Talkbox" Chambers used to do, by his own admission. The Talkstar itself is actually very basic and primitive, once you understand the fundamentals of how talkboxes work. Some may consider it massively overpriced, in terms of materials and components used. However the money you pay when you buy it goes towards streamlining all the electronics into a neat little package that looks super-cool. The geeky tech nerds who managed to achieve this need to get paid for their efforts, and deservedly so!
He also unfairly didn't do the same adjustments to the Keyboard Prior to Playing the Banshee that he did for the TalkStar. So, the comparison test wasn't Good, and Fair!
@@lockrob- Yes Sir! I've had for a little over a month now...I can tell you..it's well designed was my first impression. It's a powerful talkbox, and by that It can rattle your teeth with the low end frequencies, it looks cool and sounds great.
well I've probably watched this video 7 times already. I've been using a roland vocoder for my electronic project but have wanted to get a talkbox (even tho I haven't been blown away by a store bought one yet) and this sealed the deal. Disappointing that I can't demo one, but that's just talkboxes in general.
That Talk Box is Highly Over Rated in Price! You can have the same amount of Fun with a Much Cheaper one! Plus Comparing the Banshee to the other Talk Box was Unfair because, if you noticed he made Frequency, and Volume Level, etc. Changes on the Keyboard Prior to playing out of the TalkStar! An Unfair Comparison! I Own the Banshee, and i can make it sound the Same! It's all about Keyboard Adjustments! You saw it! He did it! Like nobody caught that! I did. He's just Advertising! Why? Maybe just Happy!, although i do think it's the Best Looking Talk Box around. That i give Bigger Credit! Other than that you can do the Same with Proper Keyboard Adjustments. Watch the Videos out there. Most people Don't use the TalkStar! It Looks Cool!, but the Price is Pathetic!
The look on your face......waaaht , like a kid in a candy store...fattest free style jam I've heard in a long time , I'm a big fan now , and I just finished all ur vids , daaamn.
Mr. No Weapon no. It may be pricey but the Banshee is meant mainly for guitars, that’s why they have a toggle switch like a guitar peddle. Example: Dr. Feel good by Mötley Crüe. The Talkstar was designed for Synths, you’ll get a clear sound and better lows without distortion
Hi Saad. Great video!!! I'm a keyboard player and wanted to test the talk box world. I just bought an mxr. Talk star is expensive. But probably way better. Before I try my mxr. Wanted to ask. Is a mic required? Can I take the output of the box and go direct into an amp or pa or into digital an interface or do I need mic next to my mouth to get the altered sound? Thanks Ron
Nice video but when comparing (A-B testing) should use the same settings and E Q etc. on both Talkbox that are being compared. I prefer the custom Talkbox never was satisfied with the Roctron Banshee and the Dunlop MXR. Curious about the Talkstar though will get the opportunity to test one soon.
You are right Percy but the two talkbox have a very different input behaviors. I had to send a lot of signal to the banshee to have a decent volume so I had to go to saturation. With a sound weak in high frequency the Banshee still generated high frequencies through overdrive (same when you make a sine go through overdrive it enrish with high frequencies). When I took the same setting and plugged into the Talkstar the talkstar didnt saturated and gave a high fidelity restitution to the sound, that’s why I had to open the filter to get back the high frequencies that allows to modulate the sound to make vowels understandable. To fully get what I’m saying I recommend you to try two talkbox with the same synth preset, you’ll see that to have similar sounds to compare you will tweak your low pass filter and output of the synth. Take care and keep talkboxing ✌🏼
Great video bro! I have a question…. Compared to the Banshee, how is the hissing sound from the TalkStar compared to the Banshee with out hitting keys? Just turned on. Thanks.
How come you didn't bring up the Frequency, and More Volume etc. for the First Talk Box the Banshee Rocktron? So, that wasn't a Fair Comparison! Make the Same Adjustments for the Banshee, and Listen to the Difference in Sound! Duh! It seems like you are Advertising for the Talkstar.

3:41 pause my guy but jokes aside this was dope as hell
Man shut up. This ain’t 3rd grade bruh.
I like your spirit 😂
I bought a Talk-Star because of this video. I wanted a little slice of this dudes happiness
@Dizzi D I used it for a month and haven’t used it at all since then. Nice piece of kit but a luxury I didn’t really need
does it sound much better then your previous talkbox?

but if your not using you trying to sell it to me?
2:50 to 3:00 yes! that grindy bass is what alot of talkboxes and VSTs miss, 10/10 hardware here
I love the passion as you’re learning lol. So dope
This is such a beautiful and pure moment!!
By far the clearest and funky's (lot of dynamics) talkbox
This is so cool... your reaction when you play the first lower notes... exactly the same here... all those videos can`t show the full power this beast has.

Roger Troutman would approve...Zapp Forever!
Best I've ever heard.
Not the box.....YOU!
I LOVE MY TALKSTAR 😎👌🔥🎹 That laugh is hillarious though 😂😂😂
Damn got goosebumps at the end of the video sick bro!
Awesome man! I received mine last week. Crazy Sound! Hit me up if you're ever in London
His enthusiasm is amazing. Talkbox's sound amazing in the day, roger troutman, teddy riley back in the day and cutty still holding it down today
omg this sounds crazy. also got the banshee for the start but this thing sounds amazing.

Lmao!!! I love this. I’m in the market and I might have just found the winner with the talk box. Appreciate this vid.
Roger Tubman would love to use that talk box
Troutman 😒
Oh my god it’s amazing
You make me dancing:)))
I could tell that reaction was totally real. That sound must be huge in your mouth Haha! I have an MXR talkbox now I want to try the Talkstar
I Love this Guy ;-)
What's the tube adapter you used ?
Great sound. Great job !!
I wanna know 2 lol
Amazing !
Any other work that you've done with the TalkStar? Been waiting for a minute.. don't worry I'll keep on waiting, you sound awesome on it.
Yo, whats the main difference with a classic talkbox ? Nice video btw 👌👌💣
clear sound, lots of gain, more power

Where can I get the mouthpiece that you attached to the tube?
Hello! I have a KORG XL plus and a TalkStar, is it possible to get the same sound you are producing in this video? Especially the really low end ?
Make a how to for your patch on the lead 1A?
Can this Talkstar work on a Kontakt s61 mk2 keyboard?? Please get back to me
But the Price :D
Where can I buy this! That is dope af man
Did you find out where to buy it?
Great video bro! I have a question…. Compared to the Banshee, how is the hissing sound from the TalkStar compared to the Banshee with out hitting keys? Just turned on. Thanks.
Dope !!!
Holy Banana ! xD I love this Sound! What Mic are u using? Cheers
ouaa quel son !!
Electrospit ESX 1 is the future. Look into it
it may be but this box sounds a lot better and the words are more intelligible. But the Electrospit is damn cool.
Very cool!:)
wow this is soo cool, what sound are you using on your Nord Lead? Im struggling to get the right sound on my Nord Lead 4
yo that was dope
god
Where do I order that coolness. ?

I see several trips to the dentist as it rattles them out.
Mannnn this thing is 750.00 I want one so badddd
when you ordered this, may I know the Talkstar weight man? I need to calculate the shipping cost when I order this later
Hey MOB sorry for the late response, The shipping for me was 22.51 from Cali to Fla.
Thanks @@karydickens7957 I can see that this talkbox is quite heavy
Which nord lead is this?????
I want! It just cost so much😱
2 DAMN much lol
THAT LAUGH 😂😂😂😂
3:38 that's what she said
do someone have this patch for me as wave file or in his Yamaha dx100 to send me this patch this talkbox player have
Any sawtooth wave tone will work, then you can just tweak the EQ or whatever
How do u like the DX 100??
whats your experience with the MXR M222
Ohh wee baby that junk I swear bro I just got me a Mxr it was a gift to me but I’m fed getting this when I get the money it’s is clear
