Overview

The name itself is a big giveaway that the TC-Helicon VoiceLive Play Acoustic is meant for singers who play acoustic-electric guitar.

It combines TC-Helicon’s popular vocal effects with TC-Electronic’s popular acoustic guitar effects in one convenient package – with separate dedicated controls and input/output jacks.

The vocal section features a mic preamp and familiar effects that include smart harmony, dynamic processing, reverb, echo and pitch correction.

The guitar section features TC-Electronic effects like the Hall of Fame Reverb and Corona Chorus, as well as EQ tone shaping and feedback suppression. There’s also a nifty “BodyRez” feature which automatically optimizes your acoustic-electric guitar sound, to give it more body and presence, making it sound more like a miked acoustic.

If all of the above features are not enough, the firmware updates of the VoiceLive Play acoustic adds TC Electronic’s popular Flashback Delay effect into the unit.

In addition to effects, this processor also incorporates looping features.
