The TC Helicon Play Acoustic is a unit especially designed for singers and electro-acoustic players, delivering a great range of vocal effects and harmonies alongside dedicated acoustic guitar effects and processing.
Whether you want your vocals to have a short reverb, lush delays, thickening up, raw distortion or hard tuning, the TC Helicon Play Acoustic will deliver...alongside many other effects too! Or how about adding some chorus lifting harmony effects that fit perfectly in key with your song?...simple, as the Play Acoustic generates key correct harmonies based on the guitar chords that are being played from the plugged in electro-acoustic.
As well as all a great range of vocal effects your pure vocal tone needs to be spot on too. Thanks to TC Helicon's Adaptive Tone, the Play Acoustic delivers automatic intelligent control of Compression, EQ, De-essing, and Gating, delivering the best possible vocal tone - just like having your own personal vocal sound engineer!
The Play Acoustic also delivers a great blend of dedicated electro-acoustic processors too, meaning that your pro vocal tone is matched with a pro guitar tone! Tailor made FX courtesy of sister company TC Electronic deliver the essential requirements - reverb from the Hall of Fame pedal and chorus from the Corona pedal. The BodyRez algorithm will improve the amplified sound of any under-saddle pickup equipped guitar. By way of some clever processing, it delivers the resonating wood quality of your full-bodied instrument and takes away that unwanted piezo 'quack'.
The onboard VLOOP feature allows you to create complete vocal and guitar loops, a great option for solo performances, jamming and improvising.
The easy to use interface makes getting around the unit a breeze. Dedicated vocal fx and guitar fx buttons and up/down switches give you quick access to the essentials. The clever Hit button allows you to turn on multiple effects at once and - great for adding dazzling vocal effects for the chorus, or strip it down for the verse.
For any electro-acoustic player that sings, or for use in a duo set-up (guitarist/singer), the TC Helicon Play Acoustic really delivers. You get access to everything that is needed to bring your vocal and guitar tone upto to pro level, all in a one simple to use unit.
