The Electro-Harmonix Voice Box is a harmony machine and vocoder that packs a multi-functional vocal synth processor into a tough and compact chassis. Sing, and the Voice Box pedal gives you a troupe of backup singers following you in perfect harmony. Or use the built-in vocoder to unleash classic synth-robot sounds. The Voice Box's harmony processor creates 2- to 4-part harmonies directly from your vocals in the same key as your accompanying instrument. The Voice Box pedal's studio-quality reverb lets you independently add depth to your vocal harmony.

The focused 256-band articulate vocoder, designed by the same EMS genius who made vocoding famous, features adjustable harmonic enhancement and controllable formant shift.

It works okay for me.

I use it strictly for vocals on choruses or whatever needs thickening. I was running my bass through it initially but I only use the octave feature which does not require an instrument to be ran through it and I only play bass so I am not strumming chords. The harmonies and other functions (not sure about the vocoder) sound cool but you need mess around with it to get the sound you want. I think it works pretty good just don't expect perfection and you will most likely be able to fine tune it to suit your needs. I hope this helps.

Don't believe the hype

I wanted to add a small amount of harmony to my vocals plus I needed a vocoder for a project, so I figured I'd give this a try after looking at the demo video, which is impressive. This was a bad purchase. Unlike the video, the unit I received did not perform nearly as good or as clear and I could never get the vocoder to work at all. Maybe I got a bad unit, but it's going back for a full refund now. Only good thing is it is built very tough. Guess if you got one that worked as advertised (if one exists) you might be happy.

Good idea, needs refinement

I just bought one and I think its a good idea, but thos pedal is a tad rough. I am beginign to think I may just have a bad one, which is bound to happen. The pedal adds a tremendous amount of gain to the microphone AND guitar signal- even when bypassed. I could also hear bleed over "Hamonies" in my guitar....not good. Granted I didnt spend enough time with the pedal tweaking and the like but I did realize that it wouldn't sound right for what I was trying to do with it. I think its a great one though, just spend a lot of time with it and understand how it works. I am taking it back and getting a POG 2.Its definately worth a try!!

Awful box

When I first saw this I thought "WOW"! a reasonably priced harmony box.It turned out to be a major disappointment. 1st of all the vocals sound more like a barbershop quartet than say the Eagles or any vocal group you can think of. The other problem is that the harmonies lag when you change guitar chords. If you play 3 chord songs it isn't as noticable but anything more complex fools it. If your song has any accapella parts this box completly looses it. The only really good thing I can say about itis that it's built like a tank. After about 3 weeks I returned it because it was just about useless for my purposes. Save your money a bit longer & get the Digitech Live vocal 2 or better yet, the 4 (which I replaced the Electro Harmonix with). It may not do the vocoder (a mostly useless effect anyway) but it keeps up & doesn't lag and gives more realistic harmonies.

The Voice Box Works !!

I just received my new Voice Box by Electro Harmonix and I'm very much impressed. It was simple to hook up and I was adding voice harmony to my voice in a matter of minutes. The samples and examples you hear the web just donesn't do it justice... The Vocoder portion in real neat also. I just needed the added harmonies and I got what I wanted... Great deal and fantastic sounds....
