Fun! I was thinking of getting a Roland VT-4 for some live mixing projects (I hate playing with filter in post... would rather do it live and record vs recording and playing with sample recordings with filters for hours or days). But how do you like it dry for say voice over work? Probably OK? Thinking of Roland VT-4 first then maybe. A MOTU M4 if I had to... (also gives me benefit of line inputs 1/4” from my older synths.... so It’s not a terrible buy to get both).
Voice work is so much fun! Im working on an upcoming video to demo how EDM artists use it for voice effects that make the lyrics or songs pop. The best part is the computer detects wet/ dry and mixed without any software or apps needed to be installed and the quality is not degraded at all. But yes, if u have the benefit of manipulating real time is so much better than over editing after, I agree! Yeah, buying both is not a bad idea. The good news is the Roland is in the mid/low budget zone which allows for flexibility to buy loopers and other stuff to add to your kit! Fyi, Im not sponsored or anything LOL.
Pretty dope! you have a new sub here! 😊👍 Quick question can you break it down how you have it set up to your OBS? Your mic into your VT4 then from the VT4 USB out into your computer,and on your computer to OBS, Then on your OBS audio settings to Mic/Auxilary Audio ? Please correct me if i am wrong,Thank you!
Hey! Thanks for the sub! Sorry for the late response! :) I have my microphone XLR to the VT4, VT4 on USB to the PC, OBS detecting as input (either, WET, DRY or MIX) from the VT4. Let me know if you need more specifics on how to set it up once within OBS or from your computer audio settings.
@@IserithShay Thank youuuu! You broke it down perfectly 👍🏼 I have my mixer usb going into obs, I think I'm gonna do VT4 TS output into my mixer. I wanna use it for the podcast so I'll just use audio out put from the VT4 into the line in of my mixer thank you so much! I gotta have you jump on our podcast one these days 👍🏼👍🏼
Hi! The auto-tune on the Roland is based on a knob that you can turn and cranks up or down the amount of auto tune you'd like to have. I would say around 40%-50% you can start to hear that robotic feel but you can also play around with the balance knob. If you're interested in how the effects layer up check out the signal diagram on my video "Easy Step by Step Setup" at minute 2:23.
Not sure what you mean to the phone...By USB? It wouldnt work. But yes, the Roland to a speaker (via the line out) and a microphone through the Mic In (which you can use a 1/4 cable too). You would need a separate setup for the kareoke part, like a TV.
Hey just wanna ask if u plug it in the computer and open a software. Is it easy and No need to set up it one by one in a DAW preferences on the settings for its tune and signal set up?.
Heya! If you're refering to the Roland VT-4, that is a yes. The Roland VT-4 connects to the PC through the USB and it auto installs. The PC detects it just like another headset or mic (if you know what I mean) no need for any intermediate software specific for roland for anything. so, within your DAW you should be able to change your inputs/outputs and pick the Roland.
@@IserithShay .....yezzzzzzzzz ! Think i've cracked it now thanks RobotsFTW.My only gripe now is that when i see a tickbox that says i am not a robot on a form - i would like to see another tickbox that says " i am a robot " as it discriminates against robots.....

Hi, thank you very much for your information.I subscribed your channel. I am playing nayflute instrument and I have presonus studio software in my laptop. May it be useful if I use Roland VT4 by directly connecting to the laptop and record the nayflute sound with backup music in presonus studio?
Hi! Thank you so much for the subs!~ To confirm, are you using the Roland VT-4 as an interface to record the flute with effects? If yes, that's an interesting configuration. I know the computer and software will detect the Roland and recording will work. Now, the tricky part would be how the Roland interprets the sound received from the flute through the microphone. I haven't tried the Roland with anything else than my voice. But, in theory, it should work because its vibrations from the flute on the microphone. This would be a situation that you could try to demo at a store or purchase it used to try it out. If it doesn't work, then return? 😅 Sorry if I couldnt help much.
@@IserithShay Hi 😊 Thank you for your reply. Could you visit my RUclips channel and listen to my recording please. I don't have Roland vt4, but I want to know if it is a better choice to use it or supply a high quality audio interface like focusrite Scarlett instead of Roland vt4.
Hi! Both will work but it depends on what you want to do. If you don't want effects such as reverb, then focusrite will work. If you want to add effects, then the Roland is the way to go. But, the Roland has a bypass so it works just like the focusrite too.
Hi!~ If you are referring to DAWs, I'm not as familiar with those, since most of my performances are live and improvising. But, I know there's FL Studio and Reaper as examples. There's so many out there and a matter of preferences and budget. All are compatible with the Roland as long as your computer and/or DAW recognizes the Roland. In PC, for example that would be setup under the Sounds Settings>Inputs.
can you do a video using electric 1 with reverb and stuff. i used to use that alot on my roland jdxi. im going to buy vt4 today anyway im going to see if guitar center has other vocal processors that have a "hard tuning" i dont sing like that. feel like i have bettet expression in some sense using rolands autotune. autotunepro is cool too but it just showed me i cant really sing as good as i thought compared to the roland jdxi's auto pitch and i use the highest tune in the jdxi its fresh but ik it lacks in a lot of areas compared to autotunepro but i still like it..(i use electric pitch 1 all the time) you have a nice voice you should totally focus more on making music just my opinion
Hey andy! Thank you so much! I am in a poppunk band currently...but no original songs yet... I havent tinkered with the autotune as much seeing as how I can stay in pitch...but Ill definitely see if I can do another demo video showing more the different features of the Roland VT4
@@IserithShay u have a nice voice i think it would sound better if u used autotune more, all bc thats what people like unless u have a fire ass beat. i say give it a go and make sure its a modern beat
Sorry for that 😅 I like to eat the mic. I can lower the mic sensitivity on the Roland, that might work....I need a pop filter too! 😬 Thanks for the feedback !
It really inst.Standard plugs just like a regular microphone via XLR or 1/8 on the back. You can checkout the pdf manual on their website. It'll explain in more detail if you need.
I have not yet tried but my immeadite response will be no. I dont think PS4 software will detech the roland as a mic input. But good experiment I can try out.
@@IserithShay i understand little bit,, but im confused tc helicon vocal effect processor and ronald vt 4,,, somewhere vt 4 is king for live beatboxer, i think and tc helicon for vocalist live,,, im comfused what i pick,, who is future proof in two of those,, im concern about vocal,, i need portability,, features, easy to run,, live,,, amd thanks for making this video,,, ❤️🤘🙏
@@Riz69. i have not had experience with the helicon. But, from experience with technology...when you need it most it doesnt work. Thats why I went with the roland, it is plug and play. very analog, doesnt require an app for sync on additional features or balance issues. It works just like connecting a microphone either by XLR or 1/4 connections. The Roland VT4 provides the same effects and maybe more depending on the helicon you are looking into. I just dont trust apps and wifi pairing when going live where time and errors cant happen at the moment.
By far the best demo of this device I've seen. Call Roland, they should hire you.
Ty so much!
of all the VT4 videos this has been the most real life.... very nice voice!
OMG! What a rare and excellent demo! Awesome. 😎
Ty!
Beautiful voice and good review in a real musical application. Others only speak nonsense. Good work!

How is the pitch correction on this? Looking for something subtle for that nice ring of a perfect pitch without getting the auto-tune effect
Hi! The auto-tune on the Roland is based on a knob that you can turn and cranks up or down the amount of auto tune you'd like to have. I would say around 40%-50% you can start to hear that robotic feel but you can also play around with the balance knob.
If you're interested in how the effects layer up check out the signal diagram on my video "Easy Step by Step Setup" at minute 2:23.
As always, the more the auto-tune has to compensate for the shift in pitch the more the robotic effect will show.
Hey can I connect my phone and mic to ronald VT4 with speaker and make a karaoke?
