«  Harmonies sold off! »

It has a lot of effects, especially in Harmony, the best remaining the simplest kind Low, High, dual, Vocoder fun with a guitar. This is a strong case Analog / Digital
which edition is best played on potentiometers, you press a button and it is stored in the box!
A very simple connection: XLR microphone input and output. an inter 48V Phantom.
An inter Mic Gain (Boost also the dynamics) and of course came out in 6.35 and instrument, power input always provided elsewhere at EHX. If the box was orange one would believe her sister Box 256 vocoder.

UTILIZATION

Oh yes, we can no longer simple, given the inputs and outputs, the editing is intuitive playing the potentiometers as patches jacks vintage synths.
No need for manual, also if you own the 256, it is right at home.

SOUND QUALITY

Yes and I want to talk about it because they said entry level processors are neglected,
while many are realistic and interesting effects in these small boxes
EHX magic, but some will be disappointed, because if the vocoder is fun especially with a guitar, Wisthle also against the harmonies are to choose and arrange, otherwise it's clutter, then go fishing, play on pots and when it is clear, one push and it is stored. With a keyboard, you get different sounds, not to rely on entry, which also reacts to other sound files, and yes I dared to enter an output of a PC and an MP3 and MIDI well, it works with fun harmonies. Ditto for the favorite, there are micro and micro to the box and perhaps very different headphone output consoles and amplifications. Overall, the first three modes are excellent, we say voice doublers with choice of octaves, on the other hand difficult to find the right "choir" of three multi harmonies, highly variable depending on many factors. octaves, gives a rather realistic genre in both directions: F> M, M> F.
The Whistle is a gimmick. The vocoder a lot to have fun with a guitar.

OVERALL OPINION

For over a year, in addition to the 256, they complement each other perfectly.
YES, TCH, EHX, Digitech, Boss.
Goodies: Not easy to edit and store. True By Pass is missing on some other models. Sounds fun, realistic after many manipulations of the knobs, you get used to. Its combination with other effects of the mark or not.
Cons: No USB, adding a Looper, Mono, but not always well justified
as default. The harmonies imprecise.

I think it speaks only rarely EHX processors, if not the Big Muff. Or it could / should have its place and does not have to blush before other processors and especially to such a low price, I would say to amateurs not to hesitate and yes I rachèterais in case.
