    I've had mine for five years and love it. I've never found an on/off switch on it so I just plugged it into a power strip and used the power strip box.

      Mine stops working for months at a time, but then it will come back around, lol. It is strange that there is no On/Off. I thought mine was busted for a while, but came back around. I love it so much. Right now it's dead again so I'm back looking for them, lol. Cheers

    Matt Calder has a pretty amazing voice; there's legitimate soul there.

    I received my unit two days ago, once again there is no support from digitech regarding a video series of how to from after hooking up (hopefully enough of us already know that part , this is not a toy but I think a pro level tool).
    What saves me on this unit is the fact that there are some impressive presets that I'll be able to use on stage even if digitech doesn't step up to the plate and actually walk us
    through changing compression, delay , dser on presets and how to set up and use the gold channel etc with examples.
    I have been using the voice create from tc (not the 'xt' revision) , I think in terms of sound quality this live fx is probably miles ahead, I notice that I can sing easy then loudly, but not annoy myself with lots of popping and over the top volume changes when I hit the higher and louder notes ( I'm guessing dbx and the dessr are incorporated in the presets that work for me).
    I was apprehensive that this would come with lots of circus presets, but they are kept to a minimum and are for the most part amusing,and will be useful for some performers.
    The unit is built to Tank standards and looks great , the retro design at the top does not really take much away from the overall look.
    I have to thank digitech for providing some quality presets instead of the smoke and mirror claims often used by designers that give you almost no useable presets, and tell you that you will easily be able to tweak their unit to come up with something fantastic...lol
    Quality product.

    I've had mine for about a year and 1/2. I love it. Wish I could find a forum with people that have uploaded some useful settings that I could import. The only issue I have is that if I'm playing a large house with a high-end sound board, this unit does poorly at soundcheck and the tech immediately makes me remove it. It's happened at 2 venues where national acts play. Any suggestions?

    Probably a long shot, but hope someone can help me. I've had this for a years, but now it doesn't go beyond the "vocalist live fx" text when I turn it on, what's the issue? Before this, I was getting fading audio on the mic out. Failing preamp or something?

    With this pedal are you able to layer numerous looped vocals or just have the one looped vocal take?

  • @jamhr001yt
    @jamhr001yt 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    As someone else pointed out, @ 7:30 it looks like those knobs are MUCH too easily broken, as this happened during a demo. Wow. Does this OBVIOUS design blunder - cheap mount, no protection, next to footswitch mean Digitech will cover these things under warranty? You're supposed to take careful aim during a live performance? "OK, yo! everybody stop playing/listening/dancing, I need to select another patch on my Digitech Live FX and don't want to do $100+ worth of damage, okay? Almost... okay done."

      Hey, Quique! Thanks so much for reaching out! There could be a number of factors contributing to that, and I definitely need to get a little more information on your setup, if that's okay with you. Can you give me a shout at the contact info below to talk more about it? Rock on! 🎶🤘

  • @saxtiagoblues
    @saxtiagoblues 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    My problem here is that i need a pedal with XLR phatom power, buuut for sax instead for voice, obviusly that pedal doesn't exist so im surfing above the vocal effects. I need something with Delay and a long sampler, so im between this pedal or the boss VE-20. Wich you recommend me?

  • @bikersoncall
    @bikersoncall 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I need a processor like this, not a Harmonizer, but this does not look like I
    would be able to switch through 3 or 4 'USER' presets on stage with ease, am I wrong?
    What would be the next bump up in in a processor, I hate to spend the money
    on a harmonizer since I just want a Vocal Processor but will if that's what it
    takes for easy stage use. Does the V4 and V5 come with the same quality as this
    unit as far as adjustable effects?
    Is there a dedicate 'user bank' in all of these units ? I don't like having to replace
    factory presets with my tweaks, I like to keep them as they are and save my adjustments
    in my own user bank section, is this possible?

    • @zdeptawa
      @zdeptawa 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Lame! I've had mine now for 8 or 9 months of steady gigging, no issues. Have you reached out to Digitech?

    • @robwarren9040
      @robwarren9040 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not lame. True.
      However, I emailed Digitech after hours and they got back to me the next morning. They suggested my problem may be a bad connection between the power supply and the unit. And I think that may be true because I've noticed since the day I bought it that I'd have to wiggle the power connection there to get it to come on.
      .
      My problem was that after ten minutes or so it would lock up and the sound would go dead. It looked like everything was fine, but no sound and no controls would work. Unplugging at the unit and re-plugging it in would fix it, only for it to happen again, 5-10 minutes later.
      I'll be checking those connections and maybe applying a little de-oxit.
      Digitech support was super responsive, which counters what I had heard.

    quick question, before i decide to drop my cash on either the Live FX or the Live Harmony... I am a Solo Vocalist/Guitarist so i find the Live Harmony perfect for that setting... However.... I also perform nightly at a Piano Bar where i only have access to a Grand Piano. The question is, is the Live Adapt would accurately detect the correct pitch on a LOUD environment using only my Vocals and Grand Piano?
    If this does what concerns me here, this should win my vote versus the Live Harmony as the price is considerably much higher vs. the Live FX. Anyone can kindly lay your thoughts please? Thanks in advance!

  • @georgelancaster7352

  • @anandk199
    @anandk199 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    great demo! need clarification please.. Is it purely dependent on the vocals or does it take feed from guitars to generate harmonies etc?

    • @YeTi2055
      @YeTi2055 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      this one works off the built-in mic [I believe] all the older ones had to have an instrument plugged into it to work well.
      the back of the new one has no place to input an instrument
      they call it Live Adapt:

    • @abelcontreras5039

      I went ahead and bought the Digitech LIVE 5 for $399.. it's quite awesome.. makes harmonies directly from vocal feed.. not sure if it can be configured to reproduce only certain harmonies but it's good nevertheless.. waiting to experiment more..

    • @abelcontreras5039
      @abelcontreras5039 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      but wit all the band instruments how do I know that the harmony will be in the right key?? It would've been nice that this toy would work with a guitar input, let me know how it works

    • @anandk199
      @anandk199 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Edisson Abel Contreras Sarmiento
      the instrument demo-ed on this video is NOT what I bought.. I bought the more expensive Digitech LIVE 5 if that wasn't clear.. it works with what input you give (it can work independently with guitars, keys or vocals) .. I have given it a shot and it didn't seem to be an issue..

      @tscalzvid 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I never use a tap because I'm either playing acoustic solo or in a band. I haven't found the need for tap for an echo response except when the drummer is playing double time (then the echo follows)

    @adrianlives34 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    This seems like areal good pedal but.. DOES IT ONLY GIVE BASIC SINGING EFFECTS (REVERB, COMPRESSION, HARMONIES ETC) OR DOES IT ALSO HAVE SOME MORE "SPACEY" AMBIENT EFFECTS THAT CAN BE USED TO CREATE SOUND SCAPES, NOT JUST SINGING VOCAL MELODIES?

  • @littlebritain64
    @littlebritain64 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have one, the check test paper says everyrhing is ok, but I feel like the feedback destroyer doesn't work too well.
    More, the power supplier plugis too flimsy.
    For the rest, a good fx.
