| Quality:
| Very well made unit. Should withstand gigging for many years. Nice weight stays put on the floor. Pedals are a good size and easy to hit. Connections seem solid and convenient. |
| Features:
| Well lit leds are easy to see on a dim stage. The compressor and reverb are excellent - no rack effects needed! The enhance feature dials in very useful EQ settings making setup a breeze. I only wish you could vary the character of the harmony voices, like change them to female, male, etc. |
| Ease of Use:
| I used an Akai unit before this, which needed to be programmed for every song. While it sounded good, it wasn't nearly as easy to setup and use as the Digitech. Also, it lacked the built in EQ and reverb, and provided only one harmony part. If you've used any processor like this before, it takes only a couple minutes to understand the features and dial in a very good harmony. Couldn't be any easier. |
| Sound:
| Very natural sounding. So much so that it takes a little practice singing if you're not used to singing with harmonies. It's nice to switch from 3rd and 5th harmony to unison to change things up, and suit certain songs. The pitch correction is spot on if you're off just a bit. After very short practice with the unit, you can sound very professional, and on recordings, you would swear you had hired backup singers. |
| Reliability:
| I've been playing for over 40 years now and used MANY different effects pedals. Digitech has always been reliable for me with great sounding pedals that withstand use on the road. I've never had a Digitech product fail! |
| Overall:
| As a solo act, I'm always looking for something to enhance my performances (aren't we all!). This unit works exceptionally well, sounds very "human" and not at all electronic. The real bonus is your backup singers are always on time for rehearsal and don't drink all your beer! You can't go wrong with Digitech products, and you can't go wrong with the Vocalist Live 2. |

| Subject: | Great Harmony Processor for the money. |
| Quality:
| It is very well made. Very sturdy. |
| Features:
| The reverb is a nice add-on but would have liked to have seen a harmony hold switch. Overall features are nice. |
| Ease of Use:
| Very easy to use. Just plug step and play. |
| Sound:
| Great for live sound. Wouldnt recommend for studio use though because in a high detail environment the processor can sound alittle electronic. |
| Reliability:
| Hasnt failed me yet. |
| Overall:
| I would recommend this product for any band that needs backup vocals without having to shell out another percentage of show cash. |

| Subject: | WOW |
| Quality:
| It seems to be good quality, metal housing, foot switches feel sturdy, jacks are tight. |
| Features:
| The harmonies are GREAT. No chipmunk sounds.
follows the guitar chords great, a little lag time if cords are slow, but it gets there. Wish it had effects for the guitar as well, would make it more of a one-box-setup for gigging. Guiter signal has to be hot or it has a hard time following. Can't wait to use it to record back-up. |
| Ease of Use:
| So easy to set up and use, I can't beleive it. Within 15 minutes I had it in my set-up and was playing. I looked at the manual only to find out where the on switch was ( no on and off switch ) My wife came downstairs and couldn't believe what she was hearing. |
| Sound:
| GREAT |
| Reliability:
| Unable to say in this short of time. If it dies early, I'll let you know :-} |
| Overall:
| Great product. I do one man gigs here and there, just me, my guitar, harmonica, and voice. Can't wait to add the backing vocals. |
