Thanks mate! I really appreciate that!!

Good on ya mate! Good work!! Have fun with it

Ha ha ha!!! Sorry for encouraging your GAS!!!!

Thanks Alex! I’m glad it was useful!!

It’s an awesome pedal! And it’s even better value if you can pick one up secondhand! Good job!

I think you can still get them secondhand on reverb! Pretty cheap too!!

That’s great mate! Let us know if you make a video so we can check it out!

Thanks mate!!

They're soooo cool... never late to a gig... dont have to pay it.. never makes a mistake.... never tried to fight the bouncer.... best band mate EVER

@@thepedalpicassos HEH!

Are you married? I don’t see a wedding ring

You have a beautiful voice… you should come on the show and let everyone hear it

BIASED! ;oP

Yeah! That’s a bugger!! Sometimes mine picks up sound from the foldbacks

No worries mate!

@@thepedalpicassos I have a battery-powered setup so that I can play anywhere without mains power so the current draw is important for me. But even when using mains power the current draw is still essential information for matching effects to the 9 volt power supply boxes on pedalboards. Cheers, mate.

I’m pretty sure you can get the cheap now… on eBay!!

There is some smaller TC electronics units that have special effects on them for people that sing metal or want different sorts of crazy effects on the vocals! I think One might be called The Voice mechanic? I have to google it and have a look.

@@thepedalpicassos yeah the TC helicon mic mechanic! it also has the tone function, some delay/reverb and pitch correction (i think). If i were to get 1 pedal itd probably be that one

@@mfkrwill : the Harmony-G XT has the advantage of being programmable. The Mic Mechanic is not programmable, so if you put it on the floor and want to change its setting, you have to bend down.

Man! I’m not 100% sure??? I know it’s probably a stupid answer to your question, but I would normally buy both! And then just sell the one that didn’t work out for me

Hi mate! There is a big huge TC helicon vocal effects unit that does absolutely everything! I haven’t had a play around with it, but I’ve heard it’s very very good! On my live rig. I use the boss VE - 500 and then I’ll run all my guitar effects through a line 6 HX stomp! Hope that helps!!

@@thepedalpicassosAlso using the VE-500 live. But this pedal seems great for quick&dirty busking. I wonder: Have you ever compared it with the Boss VE-2?

Yes, it works, but you have to make sure that the guitar signal does not appear on the XLR outputs of the Harmony-G XT. To do this, you either have to turn down the Harmony-G XT's "Guitar" pot (immediately above the Auto position is an “off band” where the guitar is muted), or plug a "blind" 1/4" jack plug into the Harmony-G XT's "THRU" jack socket.

@@kiskadar69 Thank you very much. Your answer have been very useful for me.

I’ve played with a few harmonisers now… I have tried all of them out with a piano and they work fine! I hope that helps!

The g-xt.. only because I can save presets on it! They both sound great!

Yes! You sure can… it works with backing tracks too

Hi mate! It needs a chord as a reference… from a guitar or a keyboard or a backing track! And yes, it can be used for just a third above!

"Using Manual mode does this. It could be that you aren’t playing your guitar in a particular song, that you’re not playing a guitar at all, or that you’ve used fixed-key harmony in other TC-Helicon products and found it works better and sounds unique in certain songs. If you’re not sure what the key of your song is, it’s often the same as the first or last chord of the song. (...) To set key in Manual Mode without a guitar: 1. Press both footswitches simultaneously to temporarily enter key setting mode. If no footswitch input is received after a few seconds, the mode will exit. 2. Tap the left footswitch to cycle through the key options and the right footswitch to cycle through the 6 available scales. After a moment, the mode will automatically exit. Understanding the Manual key display: The key in Harmony-G XT is shown in 3 sequential flashes. For example, an E might flash, then a dash “-”, and then a number 3 indicating E minor 3. The number corresponds to one of three major and three minor modified scales. Choosing an alternate scale may help you find a fixed-key harmony that works best for your song. Once your key is set and you’re happy with it, it can be stored with the current preset by holding the Preset button." (TC-Helicon VoiceTone Harmony-G XT Product Manual, page 20-21)

Yes. Sure is! This works with a keyboard!

That’s a good question! I’ll have a look!!

Try the TC Acoustic Play, 2 xlr outs can.be run in mono, 1 for voice, one for guitar, or stereo (mixed) it's big though and best used with an additional 3 or 6 pedal footswitch for more control

If you plug something into the Harmony-G XT's THRU jack, the guitar signal will only appear there (without the Harmony-G XT's effects), so it won't be heard on the Harmony-G XT's XLR outputs.

Yep. I found that too… I actually swapped from a shure SM58 to an AKG D5 and it helped a lot! I hope that helps you too!

@@thepedalpicassos oh thanks so much, after your post did some research and that mic akg seams to have less background noise. I will order one and try out for sure. AKG we have for drums as well and like it. Please find some video;s with live sound on or channel: www.youtube.com/@steviedesire/videos

I’ve been using this pedal for at least 13 years, and I’ve never had an issue with it.

@@jamesdeininger3759 me too i thought, untill i listened back track by track and the vocals of myself with the pedal can give quite bizar sounds in multivoice. Did you record in a live band and listen back like i did?

Is this what you mean? "Auto-Chromatic Pitch Correction which gently corrects your pitch without the need to set key and scale. Double clicking the Tone button activates or de-activates Pitch Correction independently of the Live Engineer Effects." (TC-Helicon VoiceTone Harmony-G XT Product Manual,page 12)

Yes, Pitch Correction is possible after a certain firmware version (the firmware can be updated with VoiceSupport 2), but the amount of Pitch Correction cannot be changed (only on/off is possible): "Auto-Chromatic Pitch Correction which gently corrects your pitch without the need to set key and scale. Double clicking the Tone button activates or de-activates Pitch Correction independently of the Live Engineer Effects." (TC-Helicon VoiceTone Harmony-G XT Product Manual, page 12)

Hi mate… this pedal does not have pitch correction. Unfortunately! It just has effects like Reverb and delay and can add some harmonies!

It's my understanding that this pedal does have pitch correction based off of the guitar. I believe you hold the. Button down next to the microphone level.

The tone button?

Hi mate! Sorry I I haven’t come across this issue!!

Tip 1: update the firmware with VoiceSupport 2, then recalibrate the potmeters. Tip 2: if the Harmony-G XT activates by itself, it could be because the Mic Control function is switched on. The Mic Control function can be turned off by the following methods: Method 1: turn off "48V". Method 2: if the "48V" should be on, then power on the pedal while holding the "Double" and "FX" buttons.

The manual light is off because I’m using the guitar chords to set the key… you use the manual button if you want to set a specific key for your harmonies… and make the unit ignore the guitar… I hope that helps!!

You want to do a factory reset??

Nope! It’s doesn’t!

No… no battery option…. That would be awesome though!!

The TC Helicon Harmony Singer 2 can. It’s the smaller, single sized pedal in blue

Yes… for me… I need to be able to save presets… and this has more harmony options and combinations

No way! Ha ha ha. Pink Floyd are serial video blockers and copyright strikers!

OK, didn't know@@thepedalpicassos

"There may be times when you want to disengage guitar control of your harmonies and use a fixed key (e.g. E Minor) instead. Using Manual mode does this.

@@kiskadar69 Thank You!

You better believe it! It’s amazing!

Yep! Needs a guitar as a reference to generate the harmony! You can set it to be a specific key… but it doesn’t work that well… using a guitar or keyboard or backing track works better!

@@thepedalpicassos would work with backing tracks too? Have you tried? Please, let me know❤

It can actually be used for voice alone.. which is why it is highly sought after. It's not instrument dependant
