The VoiceTone Harmony-G XT (for "extended") summarizes the main features of the Harmony-G, but with the addition of features derived directly from the flagship of the fleet TC Helicon, namely, the VoiceLive 2.

Pedal Harmony-G XT is designed for singers and / or guitar singers. This clever little processor analyzes - in real time - voice and guitar to automatically generate harmonies based on the chords.
The Harmony-G XT can now define, in manual mode, and a key to generate a range of automatic vocal harmonies, without even playing a guitar as a guide.
In additions to this version of XT, we note detection algorithms "Natural Play" took on VoiceLive 2, and that can naturally play his guitar to control harmonies. The small effects section, which lists a new reverb superb quality, also includes a new combination reverb / delay. Finally, the Tone function to automatically clear timbre of the voice (with an equalizer and a compressor both adaptive) was supplemented with Gate (noise gate).

Finally, the Harmony-G XT also includes a USB port that allows connection to a computer to use the free VoiceSupport (access to updates, saving and loading presets, access to tips and tricks ...)

The features that made the Harmony-G a huge success among musicians:
- Real-time analysis guitar and voice to automatically reproduce vocal harmonies
- The Tone function brightens the timbre of the voice, with automated tools, a sound engineer
- 18 combinations of reverb, and DELAY μmod modulation applied to the voice (and reverb guitar)
- 10 memories (presets) each with two variations, A and B
- The harmonies include Third and Fifths (upper and lower), upper and lower octaves, and the unique Bass effect.
- True studio quality mic preamp (XLR and phantom power supplied mirrored)
- Configurable either stereo or mono out (XLR)
- The guitar signal is measurable, sharing the reverb, and has its own direct output to power amp or PA system.
- Also includes a fast and accurate guitar tuner.

The new version of the XT:
- Natural vocal harmonies further improved, driven with your single guitar accompaniment
- New studio-quality reverb, DELAY and combination effects taken from Voice Live 2
- Selection of four different styles of voice dubbing stereo (two voices to add yours)
- The effects presets reworked offer more opportunities following musical styles
- USB Plug: updates, saving presets, access to tips with software VoiceSupport
- Harmony adaptive Gate added to Tone for further clarify the stamp of voice
- Direct manual selection key and range for use without a guitar (vocals, but brass!)

The VoiceTone Harmony-G XT comes with the power supply unit (12 V / 0.4 A), a c, USB cable, and
CD-ROM containing software and VoiceSupport manual.

UTILIZATION

* The auto config is an innate simplicity

* The manual config:
saves presets keys to optimal functioning of harmonies on songs chosen with or without a guitar connected.

* The manual is very well developed and implementation is instant

SOUND QUALITY

The effects are very realistic, we must of course make his mark on the basis of sound reproduction equipment (to be discovered when the scales if you use the material available)

I'm not a guitarist, so the functions does not concern me.

I love the double voice to third, fifth, octave higher or lower for all
The warm colors stand, the reverbs and delays sometimes melt the public its layers of my keyboards, attack effects are clear and powerful.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this product for more than seven months in moderation because I have fear of not being able to do without it and forget my natural voice lol

I try other models, it was the most convincing (Boss with cabbage for me)

What I appreciate most is the overall quality of this little box and the ability to update new effects via the official website, I like least is the wire link power
(A stack would unfortunately not have the shock more than 5 hours so I think the technical choice is justified)
