If you’re curious about setting specific harmonies with it (i.e. 4ths or 6ths for example), you can set a harmony to a specific voicing once you specify the key of the song, and take the “Key button” off of Full Auto mode. I’ve been using it for a few years now and I don’t think I’ll ever need any other vocal pedal for live or in studio. It’s incredibly versatile but it does take some time to really dive into it

Hi Chris, really helpful stuff, thanks! I have a harmoniser issue I can't understand: when I'm playing in an open tuning (actually Csus2, where there are often open top C and D strings), the VE-500's harmonies aren't right. Is there anything I can do to address this?

@thewooddemons2105 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Chris and anyone else who might be helped by this: always put the vocal harmoniser at the beginning of your effects chain (mine was going through my digital pedalboard) or the pedal doesn't pick up the guitar key correctly :-)

Thanks Chris for this nice little video ! I'm interested to buy this pedal. I'm a vocalist/guitarist and I need to be able to switch from an effect to another one while playing live. So I'd use my foot to switch effects, and I'd like to program for example a compression on one pedal and a chorus on another one, or a reverb or whatever. Without being forced to turn the buttons and set everything with my hands. From your experience, is that doable ? Cheers man !

same question here !

@samweeks92 Жыл бұрын

@@tizianbreitenberger I’ve looked at the manual pdf. To my knowledge and going over it and watching other vids it looks like you can have up to 9 effects at once. Another cool thing is that you can use it as a guitar tuner too and link it in with your pedal board, may need to triple check with what I’ve said as for example I haven’t figured out if it will only work with your pedal board if you have the auto tune with your guitar feature switched on or if you can bypass that feature but link it it anyway for ease (I mean if you get rid of your tuner to save space that could be a plus depending on how easy it is to see the tuner feature in darkly lit venues or most likely a more problematic scenario venues with lots of lights or outside with shit loads of sunlight coming down at a festival gig). Hope that helps dude!

If you taking the monitor from presonus open the Settings and pan the inputs 1 hard left, 2 hard right, and use the big scroll wheel on presonus to use the correct monitoring. If you are using the monitoring with plus a DAW you have to pan input 1,2, in your DAW to hard left and hard right. Or you using a stereo input of 1 & 2. Check again on presonus what monitoring you are using. I remember that the big scroll wheel on the left was monitoring direct through the Presonus device, complete to the right sight through your DAW. But you should check definitely the settings from your Presonus. For that open the Software for your Interface. Hope I could help a bit

@@ChrisKaplan Messed around with it more. Checked all the panning and levels on both the unit and the interface and my DAW. There's definitely something off with formant cause the Roland VT-4 never had this issue when I tested it. All the other features work fine so far. I even tested with the mic basically in my mouth (!) cause I saw the TC-Helicon Voicetone C1 has this issue but only when the mic is significantly further away. Have you noticed this on yours? I'm wondering if mine is faulty which is weird everything else works. Debating on trying another unit or grabbing a C1 for just formant.

But then when you started singing for real at the 5-minute mark and instantly it sounded very useable and pleasant. I guess for speech (in the first 5 minutes) there are too many articulations and our ears much more discriminating for the spoken words. Anyways, I'm sold. It's a real performer.
