TC Helicon VoiceLive Touch: A Very Sensitive Vocal Effects Processor Demo (Video)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 тра 2011
- I'ma let you finish watching this demo, but the TC Helicon VoiceLive Touch is one of the greatest stand-mount vocal processors ever made. Yeah, I know, we're not usually ones for hyperbole, but this harmony generator and vocal sweetened with built-in looper is really something else. And given the fact that it's the only stand-mount vocal processor, it's not such an outlandish statement.
What is outlandish are some of the voice-mangling presets included in the VoiceLive Touch - and there's over 200 to choose from right out of the box. Owen takes a listen to some of those presets in this video, but if you're the type who typically eschews presets altogether, Owen also shows you how easy it is to access the wealth of effects and parameters the Touch has to offer. Pretty much the only thing you can't do with this hardware is play Angry Birds.

Great review! I have one of these and I am just scratching the surface on it. So far it has really helped me and makes my average vocals sound a bit better than average. Thanks for the demo!
8:15 dig it! awesome overall demo btw. very cool that the medium you use to narrate (your voice) the details is effected real-time by the unit.
Thank you!
Best demo of this unit on UA-cam, thanks.
Hey this video was great. I am toying around with the idea of using this sort of thing for a theatrical production, but couldn't find anything that seemed to suit my needs. This device has everything, even a looper! This vid really got into detail about everything and was very informative.Thanks!
Wow. Thanks dude! I've learned so much!
Great choice for a melody with "Holiday". That's probably one of my favorite Weezer vocal melodies during that bridge.
VERY GOOD DEMO!
nice demo
great review
This is hilarious!! Keep it up
great demo....cheers!!
this demo was done over a year ago, has anything else like this but better come out since?
best VoiceLive review on youtube.
Yes it does. He didn't demo it but I saw the category 'Hard Tune' in the menu. I'd assume that would be the category where you would find effects like auto tune and pitch correction. I read a little elsewhere and found that you can set pitch corrections by percentages.
I have the Harmony G which wasn't too bad until it burned out just after the warranty expired. The problem with a machine that sets harmony with your guitar is that sometimes the vocal goes to the wrong place such as background harmony while soloing. It's also difficult to control on the floor when in a pedal board setting.To disconnect the guitar controlled harmony one must step on both switches at once. Not easy when other devices are being foot controlled at the same time.
THANK YOU! :D
Props for singing the Lips
the first song setting was kind of scary
Is it just me or do all of these voices sound how I actually imagined this guy to sound like in person. lol
QUE MAQUINITA TAN CHINGONA
nice 'old man' twist
Intro sequence made me lose my identity
im looking for the effect the mini kp2 has that makes your voice sound like a DJ, limiter/compressor fx, does this machine do that?
Treadmill interface in progress
the best presenter ewer !
omg on the first few seconds of this video i thought this would be a cool device to sing flaming lips and there you are...
I am interested in this. However, I got scared of so many cables that need to be connected. Is this voice generator compatible with the MIDI controller Arturia MiniLab?
Oh man! er woman...,er...,alien...,many of these things (take your pick)...,the BEST vocal processor demo on YTube...,high-larious
I want this thing! I don't know is there something better/cheaper now in 2014? :D
Does the USB also feed everything into your DAW program? The midi, and vocals?
have you heard Julianna Barwick? Not sure if she uses the voicelive touch, but she does use a helicon voicetone harmony, reverb, and other loops effects and I think voicetone pitch-correction pedal. I don't know the specific type though. I am interested in harmonizing my different voices and it's my first time purchase. What would you recommend? I want more added effects and multi-layered loops.
Does it do gang vocals, kinda sounds like it with the armories but I'm just talking about the same not but a bing of slightly different voices?
The Gash!
Very very good demo... thanks mate!! Found myself crying laughing at stages too.
QUESTION THOUGH.... I dont want to have my guitar come out from the unit. Just to trigger the key. I want to have freedom of my own fx and eq etc on my mixer. Ideas anyone?
Does anyone know if I can do this using a the touch and a microkorg? I want to use the effects of the touch to sound through the micro korg. Have been trying to figure it out but no luck. Thanks for the help!
What is some of the other equipment needed to use the TC Helicon VoiceLive Touch to its full potential?
I don't think the USB port carries any audio either direction. It's just for midi and version updates.
0:37 "Please assume the position. Numbness will subside in several minutes."
I agree with some commenters that you spent a lot of time messing around with the useless, cartoony/weird presets.... I like the design of this thing, but for guitarists/singers or pianists/singers... completely inconvenient, unless you have the footswitch. I like the design, though... being able to add harmonies and take them away, with the touch of a button. I wish other pedals had this feature... kick in the 3rd, kick in the 5th... take away the 5th... etc.
@1:06 that's his real talking voice
This was a very good demo though.
Great device, I'd love to have it, but I'm having trouble digesting the price they ask for it. The VoiceLive Touch 2 is even saltier....$600 retail! Wow...
hey, I was wondering if u can help me please? I have a VoiceLive Touch. The record button keeps turning itself on automatically. Why is it doing this?
Can you double the harmonies?
Seems like there is a bit of a delay between the dry and wet signals.
is this alot better to use than the KAOSS PAD 3 ? because i already own the kp3 but havnt had much use
This guy is a character
Besides this is completely touch, whats the difference between the prior version?
It is posible to adjust presets for harmony whyle playing along whit your band but, without your guitar telling the tc the key of the song?
Hello. What is the preset you have when you started singing at 2:00?
6:51 decepticons!! (of the 80's)
8:30 reminds me of the Residents for some reason
Does it save the change if you don't want the reverb at that time?
Sound/effects quality wise, is it the same as the VoiceLive Play?
all the tracks can be edited in a pc sequencer like cubase?
How many times can you loop and can you remove loops?
how can I change the pitch dependes on the songs? and harmony
Can you use this with a computer for a studio in fl studio?
In the minute 1:15, what setting or effect did you use?
Does anyone know what to do when it won't start? All the lights are coming on but nothing is happening. I can't get any of the buttons working.
Having just had to return not one but two faulty units, I have to say I'm not overly impressed! Extremely loud hissing sound and malfunctioning operations were just two of the problems. From what I could gather, even when operating correctly the unit has SEVERE limitations in the looping department. The best thing about it is the harmonizer, but they make one of those separately. Don't waste your money. TC has clearly not figured out the bugs yet. This is NOT really a looper, the presets are heavy on the harmonizer and light on delays and reverbs and I don't know about you, but I don't have a huge need for weird robot voices.
*****
I decided to abandon stand-alone looper units for the time being (well I do already own a VE-20, but it doesn't undo, only layer) and go with a laptop, midi keyboard and Ableton Live. A techy friend is setting it all up for me and I haven't received it yet. But I have experimented with this set-up in the past and I liked how I could record a phrase of whatever length and then assign it to a keyboard key allowing me to play my voice phrases like an organ. I think this will work. To be fair to TC, I do think what happened to me was weird and unusual - they must've had a bad run and the distributor I was dealing with obviously had a whole bunch of 'em. I will likely buy their harmonizer in the future. Was very impressed with those features of the VoiceLive Touch. Cheers!
Who sells this? I can’t find it on amazon or Sweetwater.
are there any processors that can do falsetto?
Hanging a delicate $600 unit on a wobbly mic stand is a combination that doesn't work for me.
Get a more stable mic stand
What do most studios use to make vocals sound nice...?
Talent
Recently this unit shuts off with an error message 340 and turns back on again for a minute and then again it turns off with the same message. Does anyone know how to fix this processor?
hahah perfect demo
What does the Live 2 do that this one doesn't?
What a lovely Dog and picture
can i hook this up on my alesis io2 /?
Whats the song at 3:38 when he starts flanging?
lucy in the sky with diamonds
hi guys ,,my inquiriey is .,I no you have this processor for a vocal effect ,,,what im asking is do you have this processor as a brass section ,,so that I can have a trombone and maybe trumpet tenor sax etc,, id be very interested in something like that,,love to hear your comment ,,,hirra
I don't know if this is a stupid question but: Is it possible to record with this? In combination with an AudioInterface for example? I am confused because of the name "VoiceLive".
thanks mate
hola me interesa comprarlo me podrian decir en que tienda de mexico lo encuentro
hi, I would like to know how you can delete your original voice to leave only the effect voice of the helicon tc, as an example in the first part of the video, thanks
I think you just gotta turn the volume of the effect your using up and the part that's your voice down. .. I've had one for a couple years and still can't really work it out. .. i only messed with it a little though
you make the device go out of tune . . how bad is that? ha ha that´s some talent !
Is there a leslie effect on this?
full la demo
hi! how off the machina??
Does it record into the computer?
Name of effect in 6:13?
How to restore factory settings?
Does this work in a daw for production use?
Diego Fernandez Yes, it works with a daw. I've used it in Mixcraft 7 while recording.
Cheers
I already got the Voicelive rack now
0:51 Minions!!!
There is no sound of my guitar. Why? Can't explain!

WILL THE FIGHT FOR OUR SANITY BE THE FIGHT OF OUR LIVES
What if you didn't want a bunch of little bs circus gimmics but just fantastic useable stage presets with adjustable perameters, no harmonizers either just great verbs delay doublers... What would be a step up ?
