Description
MXR's M222 Talk Box brings a legendary effect into the modern age. This innovative pedal houses its own amplifier and speaker driver so you can achieve instantly recognizable talk box tones without a separate rig. The M222 Talk Box is equipped with volume, tone and gain controls to shape your voice and add texture for maximum sonic impact on stage or in the studio.
Built-In Amp Provides Convenience
The M222 Talk Box's built-in amp and speaker driver eliminate the need to connect a separate amplifier, allowing for a compact, pedalboard-friendly setup. Now you can achieve the talk box's signature expressive character anywhere without lugging around extra gear.
Tone-Sculpting Controls Open Up Creative Possibilities
Unlike vintage talk boxes that offer limited tonal control, the M222 Talk Box provides volume, tone and gain knobs to customize your talk box tone. Add a touch of overdrive to full-on distortion with the gain control for extra clarity and definition. Shape your tone with the tone control for an open, airy quality or a more neutral sound. Get the exact level you need with the volume control.
Updated Classic Effect Used by Legends
The talk box has been used by famous musicians in nearly every genre of music. MXR has fine-tuned this legendary effect for modern players while maintaining its signature sound. Add a new trick to your bag and join the ranks of talk box pioneers.
Road-Ready Construction
Like all MXR pedals, the M222 Talk Box is built to endure the rigors of touring in a sturdy metal housing. It includes an 18-volt power supply, 8-foot surgical tube and mic clip so you have everything you need to start using this iconic effect right out of the box.

This is a really interesting pedal. It takes a lot of practice to get used to and it's not for everyone. If you can master it you'll be doing Bon Jovi and Frampton solos all day! #sweepstakes

The talk box is super fun, yet have it challenges! You have to lock in on your technique to produce the best professional sounding results! If you ever wanted that Teddy Riley or Zapp and Roger sound, the talk box is for you!
Difficult to master but a tremendous product

I picked this up at the Guitar Center in Boston while I was staying there for my guitar sessions camp at the Berklee College of Music...and I do not regret that decision. If you want to play Livin' on a Prayer, Man in the Box, Beverly Hills or anything else like that, this is a must!!

Can this be used on a keyboard or is the model only for guitar?
You could "use" it. It just requires a line level signal, a 1/4" out from the keyboard will do it. I have no idea what it would sound like.submitted4 years ago
