Here is your virtual choir packed tightly in a tiny little box! The Voice Box contains a total of nine operation modes, which includes 6 harmonizer settings as well as Octave, Unison & Whistle, and Vocoder functions.
This amazing machine has a 6-knob control set, which is quite functional for modulations and effects, and also happen to be standard for Electro-Harmonix. There is also a preset mode which enables you to not have to work so hard during live performances.
Connecting the Voice Box is a super easy. On the right side of the machine, shown above, is a balanced XLR input for your mic and a ¼” instrument input. For almost all the functions on the Voice Box, an external instrument is needed in order to provide a reference pitch. The exclusions being the Octave and Whistle modes. On the left side of the box are matching outputs. There’s a small two-way switch to set the gain on the mic preamp. Also, phantom power is provided for condenser mics.
Now that all the technical stuff is out of the way, let's get down to business. A friend of mine recently purchased a Voice Box at Twin Town Guitar in MPLS and has already had so much fun tweaking her voice with it. I can honestly say that I am SOOOOO jealous, for this toy is quite enjoyable. I was able to play with it for a while when she purchased it, just so she could watch and learn how to set it up and use it. Honestly, I was like a kid in a candy shop. My eyes were wide with excitement. I can honestly say that when I come across a little extra cash, I will run out and buy one of these babies!
