TC Helicon introduces high quality stomp boxes for vocal applications

At Summer NAMM show 2007 in Austin, Texas, TC-Helicon introduced VoiceTone, a line of vocal effects pedals designed specifically for performing singers. VoiceTone pedals were developed to give vocalists the ability to control their tone the same way guitarists do through stomp boxes and multi-effects rack units. The first two pedals in the line are VoiceTone Create, a multi-effects pedal, and VoiceTone Correct, a pitch correction and adaptive EQ/dynamics pedal.
VoiceTone Create is a studio quality multi-effects pedal for vocal applications. The box provides 99 preset combinations of reverb, tap tempo delay, thickening/microtuning, distortion and even telephone/megaphone effects. The straightforward controls, A/B effects switching and simple radio button preset selections are easy to use while performing. The fully produced vocal mix can be selected by effect type or music genre to facilitate creative operation.
VoiceTone Correct combines pitch correction with adaptive tone and dynamic shaping in a single pedal. Effects include auto-chromatic pitch correction, an adjustable auto-smooth compression, de-essing and multiband auto-shape EQ. The adaptive algorithms developed at TC-Helicon allow for generating a natural and intelligible vocal tone by compensating for microphone type and technique.
The new single control pitch correction helps singers sing more in tune. The algorithm has been developed using the same physiological principles that allow a metronome to help musicians play in time. VoiceTone Correct also includes a warmth setting.
The VoiceTone pedals both feature a studio quality microphone preamp with phantom power, XLR connectors I/O, full metal construction and high audio quality.
