TC Helicon PLAY ACOUSTIC 3-Button Vocal and Acoustic Guitar Effects Stompbox with BodyRez and Looping

This pedal is a game changer for acoustic performers. Vocal effects sound crystal clear, harmonies are natural, and guitar processing adds beautiful warmth to the sound. Setup is simple, the interface is intuitive, and the build quality inspires confidence. I especially like how the reverb and harmony automatically adapt to my guitar chords. It really makes solo performances sound full and professional. If you sing and play guitar, this device will take your live sound to a new level. It's worth it!

This is an outstanding piece of gear.. what it does it does extremely well. 1. Acoustic guitar tone. TC have mimic'd the resonance of the body of an acoustic guitar in some way.. there are 5 basic acoustic "models" to start with, and each has quite some degree of flexibility in tone. bottom line is a MAJOR improvement in acoustic tone from a piezo based guitar. 2. Mic tone With doing nothing at all, there is an adaptive tone, de-esser and compressor added to your vocals. instant improvement. 3. transparent pitch correct based upon key detection from guitar (or aux) input.. Not saying you cannot sing, but having 50% level is transparent and very effective. 4. programmable harmonies based upon key & chord detection. 5. tuner and looper...15 sec with undo/redo thats kinda it... there are a bunch of presets that you can change store recall for song sepcific setups.. but not these are predominantly dor the vocal tone/harmony/effect.. you effectively have ONE acoustic guitar tone... but then again.. thats all most need This is a great deal, offers a lot, and finally you can play your acoustic amplified without cringing over the tone.

Get it. It’s amazing. Great value especially at this price

Love the BodyRez feature 🤘 very good voice tones and selections too.

I bought the play acoustic over a year ago. Really more out of curiosity. I’m not a professional performer by any measure but have been playing the guitar, both acoustic and electric for over two decades and have recently gotten interested with doing acoustic versions of songs purely as a hobby. I was looking for effects pedals specific for acoustic guitars. I’ve had my fair share of electric pedal boards having gone thru several boss and zoom multi-effects units. What I really enjoy about the play acoustic is its very intuitive user interface. Right out of the box, I found it quite easy to navigate thru the various menus for vocal, guitar, overall mix and specific genre sections. It also appears to be built quite tough. The metal chasis body and the almost automotive paint finish gives the unit a truly rugged but elegant look. The out of the box presets are quite enjoyable as well. I’ve yet to fully explore the presets but I’ve quickly identified vocal presets that are quick favorites. The guitar effects is basically chorus, delay (echo), reverb, and Body Rez (Compressor) and is more than sufficient to customize one’s guitar tone. Tuner and built in looper is present as well. Although from a looping perspective, I’m still reliant on my Boss RC 30 for any looping as the play acoustic has a somewhat limited max loop time. The power of the play acoustic is in its vocal harmonization capabilities and the possibilities is only limited by your imagination and the amount of time you’d spend fiddling with it. Definitely happy with the purchase and Tc Helicon that I purchased the switch 6 foot switch which adds some latitude to move around as the TRS cable allows you to position the foot switch at a distance from the main unit if needed.

I love it waiting for external pedal but I find this product for me amazing I can't wait to preform out with it still a little more research to do online how to customize my harmony and effects but there pre programs are still amazing

I have two TCHELICON. I use one with my recording equipment and the other at my music jobs. I plug my microphone in and use settings to give my voice a little assist with sound quality. Mostly reverb. Fairly easy to figure out how to use.

This is an initial review. I'll be updating it as milestones in usage and experience warrant. First thoughts: I was apprehensive about purchasing a new vocal/ guitar effects unit. My experience was that they invariably were difficult to use in a live performance capacity. This one so far seems to belie that. I will say that I have read the downloadable pdf complete manual and I recommend doing that. However the presets of the unit are well programmed so you don't HAVE to be a programming whiz. I do recommend getting at the very least the optional "Switch 3" sold seperately. I got one on sale for about 35 bucks. You'll see why when you get one. I do recommend the unit. It has great harmony capabilities and the guitar "body rez" setting is astounding. Getting an acoustic guitarvto sound miked without a mic is a feature well worth the price. Next step: Using it for live gigs. Will let you know.

ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo

Muy bueno, funciona perfecto. Recomiendo.

Gayet güzel. Tabii bunların daha yeni versiyonları da var elbette. Benim gibi amatör düzeyde şakıyan bir insan evladıysanız her şekilde işinizi görür. Kullanımı kolay, efektler keyifli.

Nada más abrirlo lo conecté al PC para una actualización de 30 a 60 segundos de Loop. Me falta explorarlo más. Vengo de un Critical Mass de la misma marca, más sencillo, pero que iba muy bien y quiero replicarlo en este. Este, además, tiene armonías vocales, varias reverbs, etc. Efectos para la acústica, que si la conectas pues las armonías van acorde con lo que tocas. El cacharro es un pepino,y además está muy bien construido (parece una tanquecito). No me doy 5 estrellas por dos cosas: 1 creo que podría venir preparado para funcionar con pilas y 2 no tiene botón de apagado. Son dos tonterías quizá.

Génial, mais attention y a pas de maj de la bête depyis des années si vous êtes une quiche en informatique ca va etre complique de l'utiliser avec votre pc. Mais si vous passez pas par l'ordi, que vous gérez tout sur sa propre interface.... ben si y a rien de mieux depyis 10 ans c’est bien qu’il y a une raison. Une pédale géniale. Des effets propres. Même poir la guitare acoustique. Ce que j'entends avec ma guitare est top. Ce que j'entends avec la pédale... ça le sublime
