I cant stop listening to that performance. Theres a maturity to your voice that tells a lived experience. Simply amazing. Theres a point in everyones life that they hit perfection however briefly but yours was captured forever on youtube. Angelic, extraordinary and heartwarming. Thank you so much for sharing your gift
As a retired professional Musician/ Songwriter I am blown away by your demos - You have a beautiful voice and are a very talented songwriter - I just love and look forward to listening to your videos-
Thanks Lenny! :)
Thank you for the redesign and putting the harmony stomp on the lower right corner! That turned into some real tap dances when it was in the middle of the lower VL2 bank.
Laura, I cannot believe you do not have a recording contract.
You are so good.
Laura has an amazing voice for sure! What talent!
Here we have almost 120,000 views and a couple dozen are mine. I recently upgraded from the Voicelive first edition to Voicelive 3, but the reason for so many views of this video is that I love to hear Laura sing. This song is so compelling in it's imagery. Thanks Laura. VL3 is incredibly complicated. It has to be and I'd like to thank TC Helicon for not dumbing this down and giving us full control. That being said we do need a dammit button. The dammit button reverses mistakes that occur when I'm deep down in a menu making changes in places I'll never remember and can't reverse cause I forgot where they were. I've only had VL3 for about six weeks and I've used it in three shows. I'm still in the learning curve so please ignore the noob rant.
+Laura Davidson your voice, this music, this guitar, this pedal are simply stunning, speechless and out of this world... I could listen the first 4 minutes for the rest of the times... AMAZING!
Every time i listen to this it never fails to blow me away, beautiful beautiful song, sung beautifully and emotionally by a beautiful singer
I have watched several demos of this pedal and so far this is the best demo I have seen! Nice job! What a voice Laura! Beeeeautiful and I am a musician that knowsssss the difference...your amazing truly! Tim.
First time I heard this song it gave me goose bumps, tears and lump in the throat. This one hit on all three. Love this song.....
OMGoodness!!! Thank you so very much for doing the guitar effects and distortion demo! It is time for me to upgrade from my TC helicon acoustic play which has served me very well. whereas before I was putting all my backing tracks on my iPad, Bluetoothing it to my amp, now practically everything can be done through this device. Now I can leave my iPad just for the lyrics.
Probably the best demo song I've heard spotlighting the VL3. The harmonies sound particularly great on this demo. I'm the proud owner of a VL2 and a VL3 Extreme.
The first 3:50 of this vid seems to have garnered a lot of attention. Deservedly so. My hope is that Laura lands it big! Come on you record execs, a treasure is right here! Keep singing like an angel Laura, I am sold.
This demo is the finest exhibition of the features and quality of the TC Helicon VoiceLive processor. Finally, someone put together amazing pristine vocals (kudos Laura) and professional complimentary guitar accompaniment (and demo of the guitar effects section - awesome Mitch on all styles of play!). I know a lot of work went in to the prep of this demo and the back up tracks - but it certainly sells the unit for solo singer/player guitarists. Thanks for leaving no doubt what the equipment can do if you are already a gifted musician and singer.
Only downside for this type of unit (I own an older generation Digitech 4) is that if you do not hit the notes as purely as Laura does, there is only so much that the technology can do (check out any number of other less perfect demos available on TH-cam). I play around with my vocal harmonizer all the time - it's tons of fun. If you do not sing right on pitch, the harmonies are "wobbly" and less pleasing than what Laura executes here - even with pitch correction on main vocal. Still, I love this technology for when I am playing on my own...
Best presenter ever for TC Electronic (Helicon) products .. an amazing woman and singer
I LOVE my Voice Live 3...plus, when you order they send you CANDY! Norb is the best..the whole sweetwater sound crew is incredible. Thanks for the great experience. My wife hates you all because I buy too much stuff from you...she'll get over it.
I think it's great that you started this with such a lovely demo song. It well demonstrates both subtle application of the VoiceLive tech and the more obvious harmony use. The warm sound on the guitar is awesome too. Thanks for a nice informative overview of the products guitar features following the song.
Gutted to not see the loop section working of this as it's what can bring it all together. Any chance of a video on is?
Tremendous performance and great harmonies!!! I purchased the VoiceLive 2 several weeks ago and just started playing with it. I'm having a lot of fun with the unit!
You are very welcome Laura. You have an amazing voice. Love listening to you.
What a beautiful voice! The processor is cool too
I just have 1 word for this performance.....OUTSTANDING!
Thank you. :)
Laura Davidson Hello I saw a video on their TH-cam TC Helicon VoiceLive 2 Farm TV Pedal comments themusicfarm to wonder if the VoiceLive 3 has the same range of voice that VoiceLive 2 has. Thank U.
Laura Davidson I'm from Brazil and I am depending on your opinion to buy the VoiceLive 3
Márcio Alves Hi Marcio. The VoiceLive 3 and VoiceLive 2 have the same number of voices, but I'm not sure what you mean by range. Call your Sweetwater sales engineer for more details.
Laura Davidson What I mean is if VoiceLive 3 has the same quality and quantity of the vocal VoiceLive 2. Once again thank you.
What a beautiful song this is, really great! You have such a nice voice Laura!
Beautiful collaboration!
What a sweet piece of gear! Such a great song and inspired singing! Love that!! Thank you.
Great demo! Great natural voice.
Although, I notice a dramatic change in the sound coming out when she switches to harmonies.
love sweetwater and tc helicon great pieces
This is absolutely amazing...... started crying, emotional beautiful song.
I just ordered mine!!!! Thank you for the great DEMO!!!!!!!!!!
Glad we could help, Adrian! 💙
Simply awesome piece of hardware thanks Mitch
Laura, such a class voice! Thank you for the great demo! Amazing quality.
I like this version better than the released CD version. Just sound so natural and realistic.
Top notch. I have it. It‘s just sooooo well thought out this thing.... Absolutely love it!! 🎸

Must be fun to be a musician playing with these products! I get tons of fancy gadgets at my job to test and write about but I always wish they were guitars or music gear!!!
Awesome demo. Great singing and guitar playing.. I see why you two are getting paid for your time... great talent!!
Love the song and your voice
This is really cool!!! Love the song btw. The lyrics are brilliant!! The VL 3 is amazing.
awesome song Laura!!!
What a beautiful voice!!
Instantly bought this song after watching this video. Guess I'll have to pick up the VL3 also!
I never get past the first 3 or so minutes. Just feel like listening to her sing on a loop. :)
Nice...been using my VL2x for years...looks like its time to upgrade
I am leaving my Fractal Axe FX II and Voiclive Rack in the studio and taking the VL3 to gigs.
Love these products.
wow! Beautiful demo... thanks!
this is a nice vid to have stumbled onto
Great the "double" !
No overkill chorus with a lill late timed 2e unisono voice.
Great song and singing ❤️
That's cool. And she sounds great, too.
Beautiful voice
I HOPE SHE MAKES SOME MUSIC VIDEOS as her vocal work is superb. She should spend her spare time working towards a hit and an album.
The lights, being red, blue and pink are so much easier for us color blind people to see. Thank you.
Marketing Manager???
You've got to be kidding me??
This lady can sing - flat out incredible!! And write too?? WOW!!
I don't think the VoiceLive 3 sounds bad at all - pretty impressive.
Need to upgrade from my VoiceWorks Live!!
Now... how can I get her to do demos for me?? LOL
Nice work Laura - very cool!
Parable Farm Music (BMI)
Great video and Demo!
Thanks for checking it out, Michael C!
SweetwaterSound how much is this
SweetwaterSound where I get this

This thing sounds real good!
She has a beautifully clear voice. I could only hear the Harmony feature. The Double -- I could not hear a difference.
Great voice
Laura, I LOVED your song! and where were you BEFORE TC? and when will you record or tour??
Hi Steve! Thanks so much. I've been everywhere. :) Please visit www.lauraclapp.com to get the whole story.
WHAT A PERFORMANCE...!!!! Hell I'm gonna play it again...👍👍🤣🤣. Love this machine...gotta get me one...!!!
I am buying one!!
Love the whole performance, awsome! Please tell me where that really nice percussion part came from...?
I'm so glad my music hobby makes me money... that's why I can definitely say I'm getting this! I love TC-Helicon's gear, though I may end up selling my VoiceLive 2 and VoiceLive Play GTX since having the VoiceLive 3 will make both of those unnecessary.
very nice indeed. I loved that song. I'm a little worried about all the looking down at feet and fiddling while trying to sing to an audience. Is this something we can get used to doing almost in autopilot / without thinking with enough rehearsal at home? I'm guessing it must be.. Don't want to turn into a shoe-gazer by mistake ha ha! Great demo thank you, really impressive box of tricks. Can I use this to record? I do a lot of home recording these days.
It seems like TC really did their homework and laid things out in a very sensible way. I wish the demo went into the looper, because from all I've read they've quietly slipped the best looper on the market into a product many guitarists will overlook as a specialized vocal effect.
Oh yes, an On/Off switch. Incredible :)
Angelic voice! wow! how do you adjust the backing tracks for a song?
The older I get the more compact I want my rig. Amp tone is great in my studio, but in a band mix a large percentage of that "Holy Grail" tone goes right out the door. The VL settings for guitar sit well in a mix and I use an Atomic Active CLR if I want additional stage presence and monitoring. My pedal board gives me more versatility, obviously, but I will be interested to see the effects versatility on this unit. If all else fails, I will still run through the VL3 and out to my guitar rig. Even in that scenario I may use some of the onboard guitar fx as they have made this unit with a dedicated fx signal path. A lot of versatility. A small gig, I can still throw this in my gig bag and be setup in 5 minutes. My only tip is dial back the mix on the harmonies a little. These Helicon demos have them equally present for demonstration purposes, but a little goes a long way.
Man that harmony sounds bad ass
Laura sou seu fã. Amo sua voz e sua simplicidade.
Deus te deu está voz, louve a ele com todo seu coração.
Eu te amo.

I get goose bumps listening to Laura singing. What's this song called?
+Christopher Kiyui Thank you! :) The song is called "First Shade of Winter" and it can be downloaded from iTunes or www.lauraclapp.com.
Laura! That was a great tune and demo augmented with Mitches sensitive guitar playing. There's an opportunity with the VL3 that should be explored more here, mainly how you used the iPod/iPhone as your backing track. A tutorial would be useful in this regard as in how the guitar was connected up, how the iPod/iPhone was connected up and how you were 'miked' up settings-wise. Was the backing vox done 'live'? or were they part of the iPod backing track? Its a niche between Karaoke and playing live (though much more professional/natural sounding, definitely pleasing to my ears at least) that should be explored more. For budding singer songwriters who've already got studio sound backing tracks of their songs augmented with their live playing and singing this is something that could be focussed on. All your previous demos have been well done and obvious that your talent shines whether you use a product like this or not..... Respect!
Hi Kick biker. To use backing tracks with VoiceLive 3, simply plug into the 1/8" aux input on the back of the unit and push play on your playback device of choice (I'm using an HTC One in this video). The backing vocals were done live and automatically followed the chords from my backing tracks to determine key and scale. I used a Sennheiser e835fx mic plugged into the mic input. The guitar was running straight into the guitar input on the unit and the vocal/guitar signals were sent to the camera via a single XLR. You can also split the vocal and guitar signal or send your guitar to the amp of your choice via the dedicated guitar outputs. Hope this helps!
Laura Davidson
Thank you for that. You guys (and gals) in all depts.are a great credit to TC Helicon.
Am I right in concluding that (apart from holding the delay button for 2 seconds etc) there is no way to just tap tempo without an external switch? To me that is a basic essential feature to any delay for live use, especially for someone also playing an instrument and singing. It has to be quick and easy and part of the main unit; we don't want extra tagged-on bits, and we don't want to wait 2 seconds +
The delay button becomes the tap tempo when you hold it 2 secs. Works fine.
Hello, I would like to ask to throw off or give the link to the Music please. The song is just magical, delightful
Totorial tc hilicon voice 2 please🙏😊😊
Can I go out from midi on this to kaoss pad and it would become the slave to the kp3? Also, can I add an external tap to this so I can tap the tempo of the song in and then that bpm gets sent to voicelive and kaoss pad?
Ya got me. Ordered my VL3 today. By the way, VL2 for sale :-).
ditto that!
good product ! ... bad product !... what ever, I could listen to Laura sing til the end of time... beautiful song and voice
Please make one of these focused on the bassist/vocalist.
I feel you man!!!! But I’ll tell you right now, they probably won’t. The market just isn’t enough for it so I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for them to do it. Better off getting a pedal for your bass, and using this for vocals.
HELO . Question about the Hrmoniizr , what happens if the tone is not entirely deliberate, whether it gives an accurate third sound (whether the device is fixed on a precise adjustment) or get along with forgery of sound and gives third sound remains intentional ?
Love it!
Great song.
2 of my faves. Anything TC & Sweetwater to boot. This thing looks amazing & a big jump forward. So you can use any mic right? The TC mic is an option not a requirement I hope.
Hiya greatvanzinni,
You can definitely use different mics!
