This is not a fair test because your pitch is good enough to not trigger the autotune. At full whack it's giving the robot voice tone though lol but at lower settings, try to deliberately sing flat or sharp ..
Wouldn't the pitch correction require the guitar to pass through in order for the pedal to recognize the pitch that the vocal should most likely follow?
it likely doesn't use "key" it probably just snaps to the nearest note in the 12 tone scale so it's assuming you're singing is at least close enough to not snap to the entirely wrong note lol
I have TC Helicon Voice Live Ex-3 this pedal is great for my solo acoustic live shows. I bring a Bose L1, this pedal, a mic stand , my guitar. It takes as little as 15 minutes to be fully ready. Does anyone know if the VL3 has the correction capabilities of this pedal. Truth .. I have not read through that section of the manual. If not, I may obtain this pedal for the correction capabilities & place it in the signal chain before the VL3. That is not the optimum scenario because suddenly I’m forced to carry more than one pedal; however, if it will help me to improve/fix some pitch problems that I have with my singing, mainly that I go off pitch a little here and there. I don’t want to add that unnatural digital pitch correcting sound at all. I would just hope that it might . I hear your voice in this video. it sounds that perhaps it will help with my issue and still remain natural.. Thank you for your time & effort,
Might seem like a strange question but can you punch in and out of the Delay? I want to use delay, but only intermittently. I also play the guitar so turning the know is not an option while performing. Thoughts?
some home karoke machines with cheap mikes have an echo dial and if you can set it right for your voice if you are not a good singer it can make you sound pretty good to good depending on the songs that suit your voice. also you do not always have to yell into the mike. you can sing barely above talking level and it will still pick up your voice fine.
So, if you can't sing without it, you can't sing with it. Is that right? The reverb sounds nice but I don't know if it's worth the cost just for the reverb. I wish I had one to play with for a few minutes before having to buy one.
Thank you for the clear and detailed explanations about the knobs and testing. For the pitch correction i did not hear anything changing. Without a chord sound input how could it decide how to adjust ?
Thanks for watching! I assume it works like auto tune in that it finds the nearest correct note to pitch to when singing, it’s certainly subtle more than obvious though!
@@sempreame 😂 the TC helicon is where this cheap pedal got their guitar intput/voice input from my guy... Obviously you haven't gotten the real deal gear or did much research/experience on the matter
@@michaelskooma8537 Dear, many thanks for this info. But, check it again. Tc mic mechanic has got ONLY one input and ONLY one output for voice. This one, instead, you can connect mic and instrument at same time. The mic mechanic does not take instrument tune as reference to correct voice pitch.
@michaelskooma8537 Nah, both Mic Mechanic and Mic Mechanic 2 only have 1 xlr input and 1 xlr output. The flamma pedal also doesn't appear to take guitars key into account in any of the videos I have watched,It just seems to tune the vocal to the nearest correct semitone using A440 as it's reference pitch.
Can we set the pitch correction always on? or we always need to kick the switch on for the pitch correction? and how to use it when you need the correction always on, while you need delay on the certain part of song?
@@DerekPaulGuitar yeah. i mean how the solution if we need pitch correction always on, while need delay on certain part? bcause there's only one switch. i really appreciate for your answer 🎤🎸
That’s ok, I see what you mean, The footswitch is a multifunctional one. When you press it once, it turns on the pitch correction, delay, and reverb knobs; pressing it twice turns off the pitch correction, and pressing it three times turns the pedal off completely. Also, when the effects are on, you can press the footswitch twice quickly to turn off each effect. I would say not ideal for your situation
Hey I know I’m a little late to the party on this video, however, I’d like to know if I can use this for a mic auto tune as the same time as using this as a reverb/delay in my signal chain for my guitar? I play in a 2-peice hardcore band and I’d like to do some stuff like ismfof(I set my friends on fire)
Yes you can use all FX together. In fact you always have to use all three FX and adjust the amount of every effect to controll it. So idf you want to use only reverb, you have tor turn down reverb and autotune, which is a bit tricky. But the overall sound is quite good.
To be fair I used to do backup sitting behind a kit. I had a keyboard set up as well in a couple bands playing drums and keys together. Then I had a couple tunes I sang backup. Mostly ok but I used to drink a bit toward the end of the night and once at a party someone recoded us and I heard it. I swore id never sing again lmao
Mazter tengo años buscando el procesador que haga este tipo de expander en el pitch. un locutor famoso es quien la hace alguna vez me platico que usa un procesador muy antiguo, y su voz es muy normalita incluso no tiene su voz grueza, pero jamas me quiso decir que marca, checala porfavor y me dices si puedes ayudarme. ruclips.net/video/wAZpgQhTcyQ/видео.html
I’m glad you said that. I was gonna get this instead of using an app, but you can choose keys on it. I need this because I never sing and need to record something fast and don’t have time to get better at singing. Sounds like with this I will still suck lol
@@qcgarcia So for my wife and I who like to do Karaoke sometimes and she gets out of key and has tone issues, this model would work for her? We do classic rock, old country, things like that.
@@mcgragor1 chromatic is fine if you're not aiming for a t-pain sound and if you're doing karaoke on a Saturday night with alcoholic beverages (it's hard to find the key of a song and enjoy drinking at the same time). As a tool for the studio, it's a hard pass for me.
Would be good to hear what it sounded like before and after the pitch corrector to demonstrate the effect.
Glad someone actually talks instead of just singing to hear the effects. 👏
The correction demo tells us almost nothing because you don't let us hear the uncorrected audio.
This was actually quite the surprise!
Thanks for watching!
This is not a fair test because your pitch is good enough to not trigger the autotune. At full whack it's giving the robot voice tone though lol but at lower settings, try to deliberately sing flat or sharp ..
Good point! I’ll remember that thank you!
Short and sweet presentation
you said "this goes straight in to logic" so quickly my friend had to point it out to me. That's huge
How come this does not have a KEY DIAL? How does it correct your pitch if you are just singing without any instrument input?
can you explain please.
Bloody hell. This is grand
Excellent review man!!!
Really appreciate that my friend!
Amazing voice brother
Thanks man! Appreciate that!

Thank you for your time & effort,
would be cool if it had a little LED display on top to tell you if youre flat/sharp & which note you're hitting.
That would be a good idea!
Might seem like a strange question but can you punch in and out of the Delay? I want to use delay, but only intermittently. I also play the guitar so turning the know is not an option while performing. Thoughts?
As I’m aware it would be easier to chain in a delay pedal, thanks!

How do you stop the light from blinking?
How does it work in a live performance setting? Any issues? Thanks in advance, and you have a great voice.
Thanks man! I actually haven’t tried it live yet, haven’t been playing out much these days.
With pitch correction if I get 3 or 4 of these tht might get me off tto a good start .
So, if you can't sing without it, you can't sing with it. Is that right? The reverb sounds nice but I don't know if it's worth the cost just for the reverb. I wish I had one to play with for a few minutes before having to buy one.
Pretty much yes, it’ll just tune a voice that can sing, no extreme auto tune here, thanks!

great review thanx
Thank you!
Great video! If I connect my mic on line in on this pedal, what cable do I use to connect this pedal to my Scarlett 212 audio interface? Thanks!
thank you
It seems almost identical to the TC Helicon Mic Mechanic pedal.
It is, but way less quality. I had one and it was the worst pedal I've ever owned
The TC does not have guitar input to give the voice tune reference.

Yes it can be always on, just kick the switch on, no harm in that. I’m not sure about the delay part of the question though

As far as I remember it’s either vocal tuning or guitar reverb, I could be wrong though!
Hi, just one quick question, can we use Reveb and delay together or just one of them at a time?
As I remember it’s one at a time, thanks

I would need a vocal pedal that does ALL the vocals. Lmao!!!!!!!

Mostly ok but I used to drink a bit toward the end of the night and once at a party someone recoded us and I heard it. I swore id never sing again lmao
Haha they have a new one coming out so maybe it’ll make me sound like Beyoncé!! 😂
Interesting. Is this the same as the TC Helicon Mic Mechanic?
Same but TC Helicon is better.
For correction , compared to TC C1 .. which one is better?
I’ve only tried this one so I don’t know
Can this be used on the yamaha genos keyboard?
I don’t see why not, thanks
Great🎉
Thanks!
so no specific key for vocal correct? only chromatic? no major or minor?
What are the inputs in the sides for?
Guitar.
There's no pitch selection in the hardware? Does it automatically select the pitch?
Yes it automatically does it, no pitch adjustments, thanks for the comment
do u know of any pedals that can lower to a precise pitch?
What power supply do u need for these units
Just a regular 9v power supply which is included, thanks
You didn't test it with a guitar plugged in? Why not?

Can I make your voice sound sound like a robot?
It’s not that extreme and doesn’t have that effect on it, cheers!
Better sing directly to let us know how it really works
That product is a failure because the pitch correction is fixed to chromatic. Sing a glissando and it will quantize to every off-key note.
I’m glad you said that. I was gonna get this instead of using an app, but you can choose keys on it. I need this because I never sing and need to record something fast and don’t have time to get better at singing. Sounds like with this I will still suck lol
@@MattyJ it"s a good consumer product for karaoke. I got a zoom V3, wish it could do harmonic/melodic minor (hit me baby one more time)
