Tom Lang is TC Helicon's best sales person and it's not even close. Great video even 11 years later. Convinced me to purchase!

The most precise short and thorough presentation , ever. Congratulations !

seriously this is the best demo of this pedal ive seen so far

Thanks man for doing a clear in depth demo on this product. Great Job!

Thank you so much Tom for the video, so well explained , I just bought the pedal and i can not wait to receive it and use it live. GREAT !!!

This video is very comprehensible for the foreigner such as me Japanese, Highly appreciated.

Hi Deiter, Our units detect the incoming chords and create harmony from a combination of that and your lead vocal note, so there's no need to adjust anything when playing a 1/2 step down. The unit will simply "hear" an Eb instead of an E, for example. Everything will work just the same as it would with standard tuning.

Great video, Tom! You do some of the best gear demos and tutorials in the industry.

great demo!!! Thanks it answered all my questions!

Amazing Pedal. Awesome demo. Looking forward to getting one of these.

Thanks Tom! I needed that.

Amazing! It's really a very nice voice pedal. I'm gonna buy it.

Excellent video Tom, I just got one of these and have been dying to give it a try, but wanted to watch some vids about it first and yours was the first one I found after searching for this pedal, I may not watch anymore after this excellent demo you've given and just jump right in and start playing around with it. Thank you Tom!

just got mine tom and have to say ,what a class pedal ,, cheers for the demo s to dude ,, happy days :)

Very well explained & demo'd Tom, thanks John.

Thank you Tom!

Thanks Tom!!....I also want to mention that i really liked the sound of you and your band when you were demonstrating the Harmony GXT!!....Sounded Great!!

I've used this pedal at gigs and at rehearsal. Fantastic! Simple to use and sounds great.

Great Job Man, Thank You

Hi Nicky, Yep. The caveat is that the mix of the particular track will determine how well the chord tracking works. The better the unit can "hear" clear chords (root+3rd+5th etc.) the better it will work.

Hi, great review but Can I plugged and used it with the Helicom Mic Mechanic 2 just with one microphone? I wonder if this harmony singer pedal will rectified or correct me the pitch without using a guitar , as I’m not gonna play guitar , I wanted to use to sing along backing tracks, Thanks

Hi Tom. great instr. video. Question; Can you use the pedal without a guitar for vocalists who don't play?

Hi John, the guitar signal passes through the Harmony Singer on the way to the amp. We look at the incoming dry/clean chord information to work out the harmonies and the signal moves right along to your guitar pedals/amp.

Great presentation Tom. I have a question though. I love the products, I have both the mic mechanic 2 and the vocal harmony 2. My question is can they be used in tandem? Would I just jump from mic out to mic in from unit to unit? I know VH2 uses guitar to control harmony and the Mic mechanic doesn’t. So if you could suggest how I might use both pedals in a chain? Thanks so much! Tony T.

Can I use the harmony singer 2 to double track my voice, I know it can do harmonies obviously but is the option available to just double track?

Hi Dexter, You can definitely use a wireless mic. Typically, the mic receiver will have an xlr output, which you could run into the Harmony Singer's XLR input. Just watch the gain staging. You'll need to make sure that the signal coming from your receiver doesn't overload the H. Singer's input. You want to see green/yellow LED almost all the time when you sing, but never red.

Heya Michael, You could do either. It's up to you to tune the guitar itself, so the placement of the tuner only matters if the pedal before it would somehow affect the sound. Harmony Singer doesn't change the guitar sound, so the tuner will "hear" it the same in either setup.

Is having a line out to a pa a must to have the pedal work? Or can you use it just by going through your amp? Or even by having an XLR to 1/4 inch jack cable to a separate amp?

Awesome! You guys make great stuff at a really friendly price!

Just ordered one of these babies to beef up my acoustic performance. Looking forward to being able to perform Eagles and Beatles so much better. I'm using this at the next open mike night a the local pub. Hopefully a few jaws are going to drop if it sounds as good as I hope its going to.

Hi David, I'd think of the H. Singer as an even smaller and simpler G-XT. The sounds are both of the same quality, but there's presets and some other options in the G-XT that the harmony singer doesn't have. It's more intended to chuck down on the floor and get a great harmony whenever you want it, with minimal setup.

My doubts: is it possible to replace some of the factory voices with others, for example, change the 3rd high by a high octave ???

Can i plug both mic and acoustic steel string guitar with a soundhole p/u into the same (Ibanez Troubador) acoustic guitar amp?

Help ! ... I turned on my T/C Helicon Harmony Singer (Blue Box) and the vocal part doesn't work anymore. The guitar plays through it fine but dead silence on the vocal. The only thing I know wrong is the little mike button on the right is gone, but it fell apart months ago and I'm pretty sure it has worked ok without it (I could be wrong). Inside the T/C where the 'button housing' box is/was, there are only the 6 terminals sticking up. So I have a couple questions; (1) Do I need the mike button for the TC Harmony Singer to work? ... and if so, ... (2) can I jumper across a couple of the 6 terminals to permanently lock it in the 'non-mike' mode ? (I don't even have the controlable mike) ... and if so, ... (3) which terminals do I jumper? Many thanks in advance

What does it do for sus 4 chords or 6/9 chords ? Does it basically only find 3rds above and below the main vocal melody voice?

I seen a video of this unit being used without the power cord in it as if there is a way to use it waith a battery. I have this unit but cant figure out where there is a place to use it with a battery. Can someone please tell me if and where the battery goes on this

Can i just connect my mic to the Harmony singer, and then connect to my mixer and just sing without guitar to get harmony for my song. I will have the mp3 player connected to the mixer and play. Please advise. thanks,

Hi Dexter, All of our pedals in this form factor offer +24V phantom power. The Rode may require +48. If that's the case, then you'd need an external +48 phantom supply.

Hi, very useful demo. Can I separately adjust the volume of harmony and amount of reverb or does level do both or just reverb.

Does it work on a drop tuned bass line fed thru a POG to put it up one octave?

I have used a Harmony Singer for sometime now with great success. However as of late I get a lot of static. I have traced the problem to the Harmonizer. I used the ground lift but to no avail. Can the instrument in and out connections be cleaned with DeoxIT ? DeoxIT improves electronic connections. I have used DeoxIT on my mixer when it made static and the problem cleared up. Please contact me asap as I have lots of gigs lined up.

Great demo very useful. cheers fae Bonnie Scotland

Hi. Thanks for the video.. May I ask please, whats the main difference between this and the TC-Helicon VoiceTone H1? Thank you!

I know that this an old video, but how do you run the TC Helicon Harmony Singer 2 throughab Electric guitar amp like you are doing? Will I need to run it through a mixer?Thank you.

Hi Jose, No, you need 12V to power the preamp and other electronics in the pedal. That's also why we don't offer battery power...yet.

Great video. Thanks!

Hi, i am considering between this one and TC Helicon Voice Tone Harmony-G XT. Can you give me some advices? Which should I use? Which is better?

Does the guitar sensor work with fingerstyle? Or just strumming?

Tks a lot! Very useful!!

Hi Hallam, You could run the audio from your keyboard through the Harmony Singer as long as it's got good chordal information in it. If your keyboard has the ability to send 1/2 of the keyboard out one output (I'm thinking left hand for chords) then that would be ideal.

Thank you for the tips sir.... im holding right now my tc helicon harmony singer just now.. iam excited to use it----keep up the good work make more quiepment innovation......nice mind genuis....the only problem i have was i cannot control while iam praying the guitar the different reverb effects.. so i decided to buy ipad holder which you can resize the grip that will fit in Tc Harmony singer ..much better this way... thank you once again sir

Will i get the same results with a bass guitar plugged in?

Hi everyone. i bought Harmony Singer 3 months ago from U.A.E. i've used it 3 times only.All this time the device was stored at home in good conditions.yesterday i've connected it..& unwanted noise started ...i push ground lift button..no use.all wires is new.Mixer is new.i've tried to do it in several mixers,speakers..with same result (noise) Any advises ? thanks

Is it OK to use an acoustic guitar preamp after the Harmony Singer? I have a passive soundhole pickup (Fishman) fitted to my guitar and it has a low output. I want to achieve a volume boost. Amp is a Roland AC33. Hope these are not dumb questions.

Great video love my pedal

Nice machine. Does it matter if I use it after a few (5, some are buffered) other pedals? Though none of which is engaged. except the reverb.

I'm using powermate with phantom power on my mic. Is it OK to plug the mic into mix after tc-helicon whose got phantom power?

Tom, on the Harmony singer do I have to plug in a guitar? I'm looking for a Harmonizer that I can use strictly for Vocals I don't want to have to plug in a guitar, I play bass, I just want to go straight from my PA to the Harmony Singer and then to my mic Is that possible with the Harmony Singer or do I need to look for something different...thanks

When you play a minor chord, the unit analyzes both the chord and the note you're singing to determine the appropriate harmony. That's not to say it works in every sing song every written, but it's pretty great at doing its thing.

I fingerpick a lot - will this pedal be able to determine the proper harmony for the songs that involve only finger-picked chord progressions? Thanks!

I just bought a ditto x2 looper, and a harmony singer, will this pedal harmonize with the loop?, and can i loop vocals when i use the two together?

Any chance you guys could add the momentary harmony switch in a firmware update to the Harmony G-XT?

do I have to plug into the guitar out . I'm not playing thru amp. will my guitar still com thru pa?.Or do I run the guitar out back to the mixer?

Great pedal. I was wondering is it useful when you hook it up with the bass guitar since the bass guitar does not play chords as electric guitar? Because, If you play Am and you want to hear third-up - and you play bass only with the tone A - how can pedal recognize is it sharp or not? thanks

Thanx for the review🤝🙏. Please tell me, do u have to play the guitar to operate the TC harmony device? Can't the Harmony works by itself without aging the guitar?

Hi mate, thanks for the demo. One question : The pedal nevers makes wrong notes? I mean u told she generates thirds, how can she know if the third in this song is minor or major?

Thank you so much for nice explanation!!!

Hi, I´ll buy a VoiceLive Play GTX or Harmony Singer, but I'm in doubt. I want to use my pedals with my guitar and VoiceLive Play GTX only to my voice. Could this feature "VoiceLive Play GTX listens to the Guitar input to set key automatically" still work to my voice?

Hi guys, does this effects require to have an instrument plugged in to it? hope you guys could reply. im thinking if i could use this w/ my band. im on lead vocals none of my bandmates seem to like doing the 2nd voice/harmony thing so im thinking of options how to get that harmony i've been looking for w/ an old band i play with..

Hi. Nice toy! Do you know if it works well with "Jazz harmonies" like b5, #9, etc.? I'm starting a duo project and that would be a cool add-on to the show :) Thanks!

Hi, I need to know if i can use a pad system vs guitare playing music ( drums + keyboard melody with chords associated in the loop) so music in fact.... thanks

Does the guitar have to go out the Thru? If, like on the Voicelive 2, you want both signals to go out of the Main Out, can you do that with this pedal, or do you have to go Thru?

tom lang 'Harmonies mode' and how to return back to normal harmonies, i did that and now is not going back to normal? guitar center said is broke but i still used that way, but is getting a pain, when you have drum machine can you please please explain,: I shot off the power and disconect an still the same is lock ??

I'm thinking to get this product but I need real opininons please, I sing and play guitar with 2 other friends but they don't sing at all so please, is this a good product to get??

Why can't I find a video demo of the change in harmony from a single vocal note changing from the guitar input? Like a singer holding out a single note while the guitar moves through different chords where the harmonies change.....

how can i connect my acoustic guitar effects, using with this harmony singer?

Hi can You kindly clarify details with ground lift pls? i connected Helicon with mixer yamaha harmonies are ok but...It gives some humming sound is not clear (power noise ) i reduced gain as much as possible...but..hum is still there

Yep sure can. There's a Mic Control button on the side, just like the Mic Mechanic you have. It'll work with an MP-75 or Sennheiser e 835 fx.

I have a vocalizer 4 and it seems to distort the harmonies. Do you have similar problems VL at higher volumes.

Sounds great! i only use a loudbox mini amp which has 60W behind it so i dont usually use a PA. Will this pedal still work if i plug it into the amp?

Hello I don't play guitar, nor keyboard...does this also work with instrumental backings on cd or mp3? Thanks

what mics can I use to switch the TC Helicon Harmony Singer?? Ty

How are splitting the guitar signal to go both to an amp and to the Harmony Singer? Can this be used with a wireless mic, and how is that done? Sounds great!

Can you use it threw the amp that your playing your guitar threw. I've tried it threw my acoustic amp in a separate channel that has effects that can be used and it seems to drift.

how many cables i need? i believe 3 ?? one for my microphone to the pedal one to my guitar to the pedal and and one to the pedal to my amplifier or consola ..and what kind of cables ??thanks

is this equipment can i use wireless mic instead of TC Helicon MP-75 Dynamic Vocal Mic thank you i order it already thnks for the bit

what i've noticed here is when you put the reverb to hall reverb the sounds of the guitar also plays hall reverb right? so how can you use this harmony singer only for vocals without affecting the guitar. So if i like to use my other distortion pedal how would that be??

1) Does the Harmony Singer queue off the actual guitar notes in the 3rd and 5th positions, or does it queue off the chord FORM? 2) I know it can read the difference between a third and a minor third, but can it read the difference in a 5th and a diminished 5th, or an augmented 5th ?

How much are the various products you have in the market?

Hi, great harmonizer. Quick question are you able to just use for vocals only with no guitar connected? Cheers

do you have to plug in your guitar through the pedal??? i play acoustic mostly..should i just plug through a separate DI??

HI Randy, The Harmony Singer doesn't create any guitar audio or processing, so you can't get audio out the Mic out.

I'm planning to connect this to my lil looper. Will my looper be able to loop my voice too, considering that the XLR input and output are both on the HS unit. Thanks!

Thanks Chris!

hello sir....im planning on purchasing this pedal but im a bit concern on best where to place it on my pedalboard...please kindly give me an advice... whats on my pedalboard: (in chain) Guitar -Nady wireles system - Polytune mini -Morley mini wah- Zoom g3x- Xenyx 502 mixer (inserts for backing tracks +microphone) and then out to the PA system...do you think it will affect my guitar sound or decreases the guitar signal if i put the Harmony singer first before the polytune? or is it better to put in last before the Xenyx?... thanx in advance and good day...

great review. can i use this with Boss RC 300 Loop Station? and use this pedal to loop harmonies?

I am looking for a vocal harmonizer which is the size of the harmonizer (easy to carry and just stomp on when i need a harmony). I am assuming this unit can't generate an intelligent harmony based on my vocal, unless ive got a guitar plugged in. Can i plug this into my guitar players guitar unit and have the other end connected to my mic for the unit to generate harmony ? In case i decide not to connect it to a guitar unit at all, then can it generate an intelligent harmony purely based on my voice ?

Es tremendo, a mi me gusta cantar a dúo o trió, pero cuando hay personas que no siguen la secuencia eso crea un poco de😣 pero con este intrumento es fenomenal me encanta,gracias.

Thanx Tom.Great pedal, great demo (and great singer by the way !). I bought a HS and I'll receive it in the next few days.One question about the outputs : you say the output XLR is to be connected to a PA.But i want to make the HS sound thru my guitar amp,with my guitar .I've a amp & effects modeller connected to my amp (Line6 Pod hd Pro) for the guitar.There's an mic XLR input on the Pod. Can I plug the HS into it ? I ask this because I've read the output on the HS is a " XLR line output" and i wondered what the word "line" was meaning ( something to do with "line level" ?)I suppose I can but i'd like to have your advice.Thanx for your answer.Greatings from Paris.

So, what's the difference between this one and the GXT-They are both about the same price? Can I use a keyboard on that one as well?
