Product Review
This pedal works for me. Very pleased with it. I run it 1st in my pedal chain. It reads the chords I'm playing, but does not change my guitar sound at all. Helps me take my voice to places I couldn't go to before. It does not fix mistakes, but helps you stay in key. Also it boosts your voice. I keep both settings at 12:00, and on chromatic setting. Gonna get the Harmony singer next. Gotta show on Labor Day, and I can't wait!

The Heart Of Electronic Voice Control & Guidance

TC Helicon makes some of the World's most durable and thoughtful units from their original larger rack gear to these newer stompbox models which dish out the different components of the guns that feature all of them in one unit. I would rely on this and any of their gear without a backup. Gear can go bad any time for whatever reason(s)but I would depend on this unit to get by.
The best feature of this unit is the subtleness that pitch correction provides. This effect produced by any unit from any brand works best but guiding a less than stellar voice like mine. More over I like to use pitch correction as a n effect on a good singing voice. It adds modern flare to any voice. It will do the so called Cher thing which really Cher's effect was more vocoding with pitch correction as opposed to getting that R&B and Boy Band pitch sound that is so familiar of late 1990's and 00's. This will do that and much more into weird possesive sounding voices for Halloween fun. One thing that would benfit any of these TC Helicon pedals would be a jack to plug a foot switch or CV pedal where there footswitch is so that you could mount the pedal on your mic stand or music stand so that you could adjust the controls without bending over or in real time. There are times when I need to do that or for effect.
Right out of the box you can set and forget and get going with whatever pitch correction you need. The unit provides me with the desired subtle effect I need to help guide my voice on key. It also helps a lot that all these TC pedals have impeccable mic pre amps for clean sound.
The tone is very clean and can be adjusted with the on board knob which also features a ground lift in case of that annoying buzz you will more than likely get from bad electrical circuits. If you use TC Helicon Mics they will also offer nice integrated control of the unit.
This is the second C1 pedal I have owned. I sold my first one to make way for the TC Helicon Voiceplay GTX which I ended up selling too while I was not in a gig where I needed to be a vocalist. I use this unit together with the H1 harmony pedal and either a combination of reverb and/or delay on my mixing board. I plan on getting the reverb and delay TC pedals at some point.
Your general opinion of this product.
I am generally very happy with this unit and the H1 pedal. When TC Helicon announced that they were making these pedals and speading out the different components from the larger rack units like Voiceworks I was pleased as punch. I have owned several different of the bigger units from TC and Digitech and they all have been fabulous and this unit is perfect for the small vocal work that I do.

Technology is still not there...but it's close

very high
Seems to work good on auto correct for our singer. turned down at a minimal setting it gives just a little bit of protection if a vocal strays flat or sharp.
Easy enough, less is more with this product if your looking for live seamless pitch correction
can sound fake, create small delay if over used
1 year and no problems
Your general opinion of this product.
Works well, and does what it's supposed to.

My voice only better
By: tim zini from taylorville, IL

I have a low voice. It makes me sound younger and higher.
I plugged it in and was using it almost immediately.
I like the tone and how it fits with my other sound equipment.
I've only had it for about a month.
Your general opinion of this product.
Well worth the money.
