Would love to see you react to "Gold". Mitch does things in that one that the original artist couldn't do.

"She always seems so happy..." Then he watches "Say Something."😂😂😂😂

"The orchestra dude to himself" oh so accurate 😂😁

Avi with them hips! He's always fun to watch 😀 If you haven't already, check out their cover of Meghan Trainor's No. Avi and Kevin are a full on vibe to watch and Mitch has sass for days!

Adding to what others have said - not only was this recorded on a cell phone so the upper and lower ranges are compressed, but please note, there are no microphones, ie no sound balancing. You gotta have mics to bring up the bass and beatbox to the same level as the singers. This is as raw as it gets. Their pure talent shines through! Thanks for the reactions!

Regarding your comments about the quality of the sound; you have to remember that this video was recorded off someone's cell phone standing 10 - 15 feet away from them. It is not going to be studio quality.

Also, for a full Mitch face (and Avi face) - check out Aha! Live from the Star Vista in Singapore

I love her. All her emotions comes through when she's singing. This performance amazes me. It's literally no mics, probably just a cell phone recording, and it's still incredible.

I’m not sure, but I think you may be ready to check out “Aha - Live Singapore The Star Vista”, which is their live performance cover of the Imogen Heap song “Aha”. There is also an official music video for their cover as well. I’ve seen a couple of reactors watch the official video first, then the live version in Singapore. Hold on to your seat for that one though.

HAHAH!!! Get Up! Walk it off!!! BOUNCE IT OFF~! 😂🤣😂🤣😋😍😎🤣😎

Kirstin personality description seems pretty accurate 👌🏾👏🏽

I Love watching Avi's hands!

please watch live version of Hallelujah as well so you can see more live PTX perfection. It is the Christmas Special 2016. Avi is the best! He would often say his hips never lie. They are ALL AMAZING! Thank you for the reaction.

I WANT TO BE IN THAT ROOM SO BAD!!

Love them...got hooked when they were on TV

Without a doubt the BEST thing about watching any live performances is watching Avi vibe out, he’s just so much fun 🤩 when you can you should go back and watch their Sing Off performances for more Avi gold 😂 loved the reaction, like many others I’m going to suggest the live version of ‘Aha’ live at Star Vista Singapore, (I think you’re ready 😜) it must be the Star Vista one though! Trust us lol I would also suggest you make it a double video and watch the official video first (don’t forget to watch all the way to the end!!) then the live version straight after 😁 in their ‘Evolution of’ videos and their cover of ‘No’ you get to see some awesome vibes between Avi and Kevin (or meat & potatoes as they were dubbed on The Sing Off by the original Pentaholic Shawn Stockman lol) can’t wait to see more from you 😁

I do the same thing Avi does, sing with my hands. Lol. For me, in my head I see music as mountains, stairs and valleys, and I talk with my hands. With that combination, I dont see how I wouldn't sing with my hands lol Thank you for another great review!

It's recorded on a pottattoooo 😁 ok prolly not really, but still, just a phone picking up what it can 😊 Isn't it amazing to see their musicianship - in their movement? Ps: like your realistic observations

You should watch them do Love Again live! They gave Kevin a mic so you can hear him but nobody else has one. I’ll leave the link in reply if it doesn’t get deleted.

You should watch some of their older vlogs from their KZfaq channel. There is so much cool behind the scenes stuff and pranking each other and random jamming.

The original was filmed live in Avi’s closet on an iPad. They spent about $400 for makeup and costumes. Some after work was done in the kitchen. This is what Scott said during the Grammy Awards. So you might say this info is from the horse’s mouth!

Have to remember this is a impromptu live recording with a cell phone. Minor critic from me. Whenever you tap or pound on your table where your mic is reverberates to the viewers. At times it can be startling. I don’t want to thwart your enthusiasm! Avoid touching the table. Lol It happens on darn near every video I’ve watched from you so far. Some more subtle than others.

What's amazing to me is how much this off-the-cuff version sounds to the final, fully edited version heard on the video. I suspect the weakness of Kevin's portion is due to the fact that they are all using just the single mike of the phone being used to capture it, whereas the performance was almost certainly done individually miked.

The only thing I’d “criticize” about your reaction videos is that your voice is set so much higher then the video so you have to keep the volume lower and can’t hear the actual song as well. Other then that, I love your reactions! Subscribed for more PTX🥰

Great reaction! Pentaholics unite. It's always a blast to see people watch a live performance and realize "oh wow, they really do live up to the hype" and I do get a kick out of it when you get so hyped you gotta break out that trampoline. Suggestion for a review: I think you'd really like Can't Hold Us (Macklemore/Ryan Lewis cover). It's a bop and a banger and Scott, Kirstie and Mitch are pretty darn good at rapping.

"The orchestra dude" AKA the conductor.

Kevin usually has a stomp box to help him with bass beats and volume.

I'm pretty sure singing/performing this song is as natural as breathing for them at this point😆 you *have* to go see them live if you ever get the chance!

You nailed it with your comment. Its way harder to beatbox over the singing without amplification.

Please react to their live performance of Aha! at the Starvista, Singapore 🙏

Do the Sing-Off performances. It's just them on stage live. No post production. And they were SO young and new as an ensemble. And of course they killed it.

Okay I have subscribed. Remind calm and just keep doing what you're doing.

Did you know that Pentatonix sing in Japanese too with one of the most famous female vocal groups in Japan? You should check them out "Little Glee Monster feat. Pentatonix - Dear My Friend" (don't forget to turn on the subtitles)👌

I love this video! A number of the sound issues here are partially because this was recorded on a phone with no mics in a room with crap acoustics. Beatboxing is hard to hear at a distance without a mic just by the sheer nature of it. There is a reason you see rappers and beatboxers practically eating their mics. AHA SINGAPORE STAR VISTA live is the way to go!

This is just standing around a hotel room or someplace like it. No microphoness. Of course it sounds muffled. If they stepped into that washroom over there it might sound better with a bit of echo and reverb off the tiled walls. The point is, this proves there's no electronics. All those little details that make it sound techno really is them.

Please do a reaction to their song Valentine 💗 They also have a private performance of that. 😊🙏

Please add to your Ptx list the "Aha - Pentatonix" One of my favourites ^-^

no mikes ...just recorded on cameras mike...Avi sings with his whole body...lol.......he also conducts his students at The A Capella Academy he founded with a few friends

The recording isn't a great quality, or you'd be able to hear Avi and Kevin a lot better. The real talent here is Avi and Kevin being on opposite ends of a straight line up - not being closer together could cause issues with being together on the beat. Truth be told, the middle trio had some tuning issues, but that's easily one of the hardest parts of live performances in a confined room with bad acoustics and not being able to hear each other as well as if they were standing in circle facing one another.

Mitch doesn’t go higher than Kirstin does, I won’t spoil much because idk if you’ve reacted to the most recent Christmas album but Kirstin is the one who can sing the highest.

I love God

Microphones would have made the sound alot more balances. Also you gotta remember this is being recorded off of a cellphone so the sound quality isnt going to be great especially since they arent using microphones

Avi hands. Gorilla mitts. Haha

But under these conditions, they all did an excellent job! But there is a MUCH clearer version of them singing it live that you can hear the beatboxing so much better than the version you played. You may want to go back and find the original that was uploaded this is probably a copy of that original.

I think this was recorded on a mobile phone and that is why the quality of Kevin's audio is not so great

I think that beat-boxing is just a little more mike dependent than normal vocals. And in this, no one is miked.

Would you be willing to react to a sci-fi TV show called "The Expanse?" If you have Amazon Prime. If not, carry on.

i hadn’t seen this yet, you did the perfect react. have you also done billie eilish and her brother, finneas mcconnell?

Recording live music with a mobile phone is just... nope. That tiny tiny little microphone can't pick up any low frequency sound, esp. not when mixed with mid to high frequency soundwaves. I've never heard a good mobile phone recording. I've heard a few that have been good enough to filter, normalize and mix to sound a bit more like a pretty good bootleg recording. Oh well, this performance was never meant for people outside that room. Also, singing straight up in a room like that (office break room??) isn't doing a lot for the PTX members. They aim their voices to the audience while standing next to each other and have to rely quite a bit of the reflected/bounced sound from the room. It's a very impressive performance no matter what. No engineer, no microphones, no mixing deck, no monitor etc. etc.

They don’t even have microphones in this…..

Kevin is standing too close to the tiled room. His voice is being thrown in the wrong direction

They were better when Avi sang with them. Since then they have become a stiff wooden un humorous overrated group.
