Interesting topic and something I've recently gotten interested in again i.e. a professional vocal harmonizer. I don't need it for pitch correction per se, but if it came with that feature I wouldn't necessarily shy away from it and not get it, but my main objective in getting any PRO VH would be in the harmony aspect of it. I would like to take my solo voice and make a few duplications of it, changing it from a solo vocal into a harmonious blending four piece choir or barbershop quartet et cetera.  VH's are getting better as the technology and science at achieving realistic vocal harmonies advances and there are new products on the market today that look very intriguing. TC-Helicon seems to be at the forefront of VH technology, and along with their current product offerings, are probably without serious contention from its rivals, such as Digitech, etc. So a sufficiently competent VH is most likely going to be my next serious purchase consideration. Deciding which one to get will require further research on my part as I particularly don't want to be too hasty in my decision and wind up getting something that I end up taking back.  Decisions, decisions... TC-Helicon is right up there at the top of the list though.  Best, Mike [This message has been edited by keybplayer (edited 05-30-2008).]

chas Yeah, I've heard about the VP-550 although I've never heard it in person yet. I was thinking more along the lines of a module as opposed to another keyboard though chas. I want to be able to use a VH with either my Tyros arranger or my brand spanking new "76" key  ROLAND FANTOM G7. I actually purchased a TC-Helicon "Voice Live" a couple years back but found it somewhat awkward to use, especially for live performance purposes; although that's what TCH was specifically touting it for, i.e., for live use. Two years though is a long time in the realm of electronic technology advancements and what's on the market now should be even more realistic and hopefully more user friendly as well. I will have to check with my local GC (Guitar Center), which should hopefully have a few different models in stock, and I got to get on over to TC-Helicon's web site and see what's cooking over there too. And Digitech's web site as well. Are there any other companies that make a pro VH besides TC and Digitech? I'm open to other company products too, if there are any.
