Description
The TC Helicon TALKBOX SYNTH gives you a wealth of awesome talk box tones and vocal effects in one compact pedal. Plug in a mic and guitar to unlock authentic talk box effects without needing a cumbersome tube apparatus. The onboard synth module also lets you craft electrifying robotic vocals. With the guitar-triggered vocoder, you can modulate your voice in mind-bending ways. The TALKBOX SYNTH makes it simple to take your guitar playing and vocals to the outer limits.
Create Authentic Talk Box Effects Without a Plastic Tube
The TALKBOX SYNTH gives you genuine talk box effects without requiring an awkward tube rig. Just plug your guitar and mic into the pedal and you can channel classic talk box tones made famous by artists like Peter Frampton and Joe Walsh. Sculpt expressive vowel-like inflections as you play, without extra gear cluttering up your stage space. The TALKBOX SYNTH captures the vibe of a traditional talk box while freeing you up to move around and focus on your performance.
Forge Electrifying Robotic Vocals With Onboard Synth Sounds
In addition to authentic talk box effects, the TALKBOX SYNTH's onboard synth module provides an array of radical vocal sounds. From vocoder-like robotic tones to synth tones that resemble a cybernetic choir, the possibilities are tremendously fun. The Style knob lets you select from a range of unique effects to dramatically alter your voice. Surprise your audience by singing through wild synth sounds that make you sound like an android. Dial in just the right amount of cybernetic flavor to take your vocals to the next level.
Built-In Guitar-Triggered Vocoder for Unique Vocal Effects
The TALKBOX SYNTH's guitar-controlled vocoder effect lets your guitar modulate your voice in mind-blowing ways. Simply play your guitar as you sing and it will manipulate your voice to follow the notes you play. You can create sounds like a singing guitar or have your vocals follow each note as you solo. The vocoder adds a tremendous new dimension for creative expression both on stage and in the studio. Shape your tone further with the selectable pitch correction and reverb effects.
Refine Your Sound With Pitch Correction and Reverb
To polish your guitar and vocal patches, the TALKBOX SYNTH provides additional sound-shaping tools. The pitch correction knob lets you dial in subtle pitch support or more aggressive robot-voice effects. Tailor the amount to suit your needs. The reverb control selects from room, hall and plate-style reverbs to add a sense of space. Dial in just the right amount of ambience to sit your guitar and voice in the mix.

This is a great unit. However you must have the right set up to reach it's potential or get good results. You should try various amps like Acoustic, Tube, Solid State etc. to get the sound that turns you on. The type of keyboard additional pedals and EQ settings is the most important factor. My set up is Mic to T.C. Helicon C-1 to Talkbox Synth to Fishman Acoustic amp. Keyboard I use is the Moog sub phatty
