TC Helicon VoiceTone E1 Vocal Echo & Tap Delay Effects Pedal

TC Helicon VoiceTone E1 Vocal Echo & Tap Delay Effects Pedal

The TC Helicon VoiceTone E1 Vocal Echo Effects Pedal gives singers 13 preset echo styles ranging from short slapback treatments to tempo-synchronized delays and special effects. Dedicated Style, Feedback, and Dry/Wet controls provide direct adjustment, while footswitch tapping synchronizes compatible echo styles to the tempo of a song.

Designed for vocalists who want hands-free effects control on stage, the VoiceTone E1 connects inline between a standard microphone and a mixer or powered speaker. The Analog control rolls off high frequencies in the repeats for a softer tape-inspired character. Its Mic Control function also supports compatible microphones for remote effect switching without reaching for the pedal.

A balanced XLR microphone input feeds TC Helicon's vocal processing path, while an XLR output integrates with typical PA and recording equipment. Phantom power remains available for compatible microphones whenever the pedal is powered. Mini-USB connectivity supports computer-based product functions, and the die-cast metal enclosure with rubberized construction is built for repeated live performance use.
