			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/main4.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/main5.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-508" title="main5" src="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/main5-300x214.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="214" /></a>For many vocalists, singers and musicians, assuring that you have the best live sound as possible is essential to your success; and to not getting beer bottles hurled at you when on stage. Just ask any singer (I know because I am a professional singer and have been in many touring and regional bands) and they will tell you that their voice is not always perfect; some nights are better than others, to say the least. Perhaps one of the best known secrets in the live music industry is that of performers, namely lead singers, using vocal effects processors to clean up their tone, correct their pitch and provide perfectly timed harmonies to their vocals. Of course, up until recently, getting your hands on a live vocal effects processor was nearly unaffordable for most musicians. But with the release of the <a href="http://www.tc-helicon.com/VoiceLive.asp" target="_blank">TC Helicon VoiceLive Vocal Floor Processor </a>the world of live entertainment for singers has significantly changed for the better, and forever.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/22.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/23.jpg"></a><a href="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/24.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-509" title="24" src="http://www.audioholicblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/24-300x268.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="268" /></a><a href="http://www.tc-helicon.com/VoiceLive.asp" target="_blank">TC Helicon VoiceLive Vocal Floor Processor</a><br />
This pedal is as sweet as a jar full of honey and is essential to any live performer who seeks perfection. Four programmable stomp buttons allow you to choose and select from 99 factory presets, each that can be live (up to four simultaneously). It comes with a state-of-the-art pitch corrector, you can utilize up to four different live harmony patterns, and of course, compression and a vast array of goodies that come packaged with this sleek and easy-to-use unit. Most vocal pedals costs thousands (for the big stages) but this one will only take you out about <a href="http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/VoiceLive/" target="_blank">$599 </a>when purchased online through select merchants.</p>
