TalkBox comes alive with new TC pedal

TC Helicon has revitalised the Talk Box with its new TalkBox Synth stompbox.

The pedal offers both classic “singing guitar” talk box effects and modern “robotic” vocoder sounds, with its four Synth styles.

Using the same solid metal construction as the rest of TC Helicon’s stomp box line, the pedal can be used with an electric guitar but doesn’t require a plastic hose like the original. Players simply vocalise the sounds they want their guitar to make directly into a microphone while they play. 

The onboard synthesizer features four Synth styles that follow single note electric guitar licks to create realistic synth performances that emulate a skilled keyboardist.

In addition, to minimise feedback, TalkBox Synth outputs to a PA not a guitar amp which means it can avoid sending a mic signal through the amp, which can result in feedback.

TalkBox has an RRP of $149 and is available now.
