TC Helicon VoiceLive 3 Extreme: The Ultimate All-in-One Performance Tool for Vocalists and Guitarists

The TC Helicon VoiceLive 3 Extreme (VL3X) is a flagship multi-effects processor designed for vocalists and guitarists who demand complete control over their live performances. It is a powerhouse unit packed with professional-grade features, from sophisticated vocal processing and high-quality guitar effects to advanced looping capabilities, making it the ideal solution for everything from intimate coffee shop gigs to large concert stages.

Key Features That Set the VoiceLive 3 Extreme Apart

The VL3X is more than just a vocal processor; it’s a seamless integration of TC Helicon’s renowned vocal technology and the legendary guitar effects expertise of its parent company, TC Electronic.

For Vocals:

• Intelligent Harmony: Generate up to 8 harmony voices that intelligently follow your guitar chords, a MIDI input, or a pre-set key and scale. The NaturalPlay technology ensures the harmonies sound incredibly realistic and natural.
• Complete Vocal FX Suite: Access a full suite of studio-quality vocal effects, including lush Reverbs, Delays, Doubling, µMod (Chorus, Flanger), Transducer (for megaphone/radio sounds), HardTune (for the popular auto-tune effect), and a Vocoder.
• Adaptive Tone: This feature acts as your personal sound engineer, automatically applying optimal EQ, Compression, De-essing, and Gating. It ensures your vocals are always clear, punchy, and cut through the mix in any environment.
• HIT Function: Assign multiple effects to a single button. Pressing the “HIT” button toggles a pre-configured effects chain on or off, perfect for creating dynamics. For example, use a clean sound for a verse and then engage the HIT button for the chorus to add powerful harmonies and a grand reverb.

For Guitar:

• TC Electronic Guitar Effects: The unit is loaded with iconic effects from TC Electronic’s library, including Overdrives, Distortions, Delays (like the Flashback), Reverbs (like the Hall of Fame), Chorus, Flanger, Wah, and many more.
• TonePrint: Download and use custom effect presets created by world-famous artists.
• Amp Modeling: Choose from a wide variety of guitar amp simulations, ranging from pristine clean tones to aggressive high-gain models.
• BodyRez™: A special feature for acoustic-electric guitars that restores the natural warmth and resonance of the wood, giving you a full, rich tone as if your guitar wasn’t plugged in.

Advanced Performance Functions:

• Performance Looper: The heart of the VL3X is its 3-track looper, which allows you to build and record entire songs live. The LoopAssist™ function helps ensure your loops are perfectly timed and easy to create, with unlimited overdubs.
• Backing Track Playback: Import audio backing tracks (MP3, WAV) via a USB flash drive and have the VL3X play them back during your performance.
• Automation: Pre-program effect changes to occur automatically at specific points in your song. This allows for complex and dynamic shows without the stress of constant pedal-stomping.
• Audio Recording: Record your entire performance—including vocals, guitar, and all effects—directly to a USB flash drive in 24-bit audio quality, delivering a studio-grade recording of your live set.

Flexible Connectivity

The VoiceLive 3 Extreme comes with a comprehensive set of inputs and outputs to handle any performance scenario:

• A combo jack (XLR/TRS) for microphones, with phantom power for condenser mics.
• A dedicated guitar input and a Guitar Thru jack to send a clean guitar signal to an external amplifier.
• A headphone output and an Aux-in for connecting media players.
• Separate stereo XLR outputs for vocals and stereo 1/4″ outputs for the guitar, allowing for independent mixing.
• MIDI In/Out for syncing with other MIDI-enabled devices.

Who Is It For?

The VoiceLive 3 Extreme is perfectly suited for:

• Solo Performers: For artists who sing and play guitar, the VL3X can make a solo act sound like a full band.
• Lead Vocalists: Singers who want to elevate their vocal sound to a professional level with stunning effects and harmonies.
• Creative Musicians: With its advanced looping and backing track capabilities, the VL3X is an excellent tool for songwriting and creating intricate, layered performances.
