There are four different types to choose from, including soft (very natural sounding), hard (abrupt correction), electronic (pure Correction), and robot, which makes you sound like a robot. We tested the pedal beforehand and got some really good effective sounds, the harmony's 3rd and 5th sound excellent if sung in the correct key, but, but, when we played live we had some initial problems achieving the correct sound level because the Ve-20 kept feeding back through the foldback, big problem if you can't hear what's coming back through the foldback, at the moment I'm reserving judgement because I haven't had time to play with the Ve-20, but prior to the gig it sounded excellent. The looper works well, it's easy to figure out and use but there is no way to pause your loop or play it only once which really leaves something to be desired especially if you were in a live acoustic setting and were relying on your looper as part of your backing track.

Check out my song attached "Let the Rain" which uses the Boss pedal for backing vocals in the chorus and the guitar all the way through! I mentioned presets, and there are a total of 80 preset spots on the VE-20 including 30 factory-assigned presets and 50 spaces for the user to make their own.The delay, reverb, distortion and chorus are all very usable, and I am glad that Roland thought to include these features.

I’ve got custom artwork on these from Half Sumo Collective… I hope you guys dig them as much as I do. If you're a singer looking to take a hands-on approach to your tone or looking to experiment with sounds that are dedicated to the voice, the VE-20 Vocal Performer is hard to beat. I haven't done anything with harmonies or programming but find a couple of the rock effects good enough for my uses and will be looking to set up programmed effects as we get more regular gigs.

If you require further assistance, all Product Support questions are handled via BACKSTAGE which can be accessed via eu. The seller delivered the item on time and the process was seamless, the pedal was used at a gig 1 day after the purchase and I found out a few niggling problems.

You can toggle the harmony on and off fine, but when you get to the end of the number and want to talk to your audience without sounding like you're at the other end of a cavern, there's no way I can see to switch the delay off without selecting a different patch (see above). The Boss VE-20 Vocal Processor is a versatile and user-friendly tool designed to enhance your vocal performance. HOWEVER, the Boss VE20 is far more substantially built and gives both better sound quality and better overall control of the effects provided. Not an insurmountable problem, but something that could lead to awkward confusion in a live situation. The 30 that come from the factory are actually pretty good, and if you just want the basic you could probably get away with just using theirs.Not cheap, especially considering it rather bizarrely doesn't come with a mains adaptor, but it's very well built ; metal casing. The VE-20's factory presets are a varied cross-section of what the unit can do and are based on various musical styles, special effects and different harmony intervals. It's a very practical and easy to use processor - you just plug in a mic, dial up one of 30 presets and start singing. This pedal can handle just about any vocal fx you need, its certainly never faile d to deliver in the years I've used it.
