  • Perfect tool for singer-songwriters
This pedal is a game changer for acoustic performers. Vocal effects sound crystal clear, harmonies are natural, and guitar processing adds beautiful warmth to the sound. Setup is simple, the interface is intuitive, and the build quality inspires confidence. I especially like how the reverb and harmony automatically adapt to my guitar chords. It really makes solo performances sound full and professional. If you sing and play guitar, this device will take your live sound to a new level. It's worth it! ... show more

  • Amazing Machine. Be ready to spend hours playing with its vocal harmonization capabilities.
I bought the play acoustic over a year ago. Really more out of curiosity. I’m not a professional performer by any measure but have been playing the guitar, both acoustic and electric for over two decades and have recently gotten interested with doing acoustic versions of songs purely as a hobby. I was looking for effects pedals specific for acoustic guitars. I’ve had my fair share of electric pedal boards having gone thru several boss and zoom multi-effects units. What I really enjoy about the play acoustic is its very intuitive user interface. Right out of the box, I found it quite easy to navigate thru the various menus for vocal, guitar, overall mix and specific genre sections. It also appears to be built quite tough. The metal chasis body and the almost automotive paint finish gives the unit a truly rugged but elegant look. The out of the box presets are quite enjoyable as well. I’ve yet to fully explore the presets but I’ve quickly identified vocal presets that are quick favorites. The guitar effects is basically chorus, delay (echo), reverb, and Body Rez (Compressor) and is more than sufficient to customize one’s guitar tone. Tuner and built in looper is present as well. Although from a looping perspective, I’m still reliant on my Boss RC 30 for any looping as the play acoustic has a somewhat limited max loop time. The power of the play acoustic is in its vocal harmonization capabilities and the possibilities is only limited by your imagination and the amount of time you’d spend fiddling with it. Definitely happy with the purchase and Tc Helicon that I purchased the switch 6 foot switch which adds some latitude to move around as the TRS cable allows you to position the foot switch at a distance from the main unit if needed. ... show more

  • outstanding for the solo acoustic guitarist
This is an outstanding piece of gear.. what it does it does extremely well. 1. Acoustic guitar tone. TC have mimic'd the resonance of the body of an acoustic guitar in some way.. there are 5 basic acoustic "models" to start with, and each has quite some degree of flexibility in tone. bottom line is a MAJOR improvement in acoustic tone from a piezo based guitar. 2. Mic tone With doing nothing at all, there is an adaptive tone, de-esser and compressor added to your vocals. instant improvement. 3. transparent pitch correct based upon key detection from guitar (or aux) input.. Not saying you cannot sing, but having 50% level is transparent and very effective. 4. programmable harmonies based upon key & chord detection. 5. tuner and looper...15 sec with undo/redo thats kinda it... there are a bunch of presets that you can change store recall for song sepcific setups.. but not these are predominantly dor the vocal tone/harmony/effect.. you effectively have ONE acoustic guitar tone... but then again.. thats all most need This is a great deal, offers a lot, and finally you can play your acoustic amplified without cringing over the tone. ... show more

  • TC Helicon Play Acoustic Lives Up to It's Marketing Hype
This unit lives up to the hype for a remarkably affordable price. I've been playing and performing for over 30 years. In recent years I've ventured into solo acoustic performance. I had been using my trusty Fractal Axe FX II ($3,000) which I love, but decided it was way too much functionality and complexity for my solo act. TC Helicon's unit does things that the Fractal could not. Just key sensing for harmonies alone is a huge win for playing solo. I highly recommend this unit for anyone that performs live or just wants to play around in their basement. It manages to pack lots of features into an easy to use unit. I'm looking forward to doing songs I wouldn't have dared try on the Fractal. I'm actually doing Seven Bridges Road with this thing and it sounds amazing. The Vocal effects are great and the Harmonizer is out of this world. My Taylor sounds great through it. My setup time has been cut in half. ... show more
