Artistic pedigree

Professional users of the original VoiceLive Touch have been instrumental in helping us develop the power user aspects of VoiceLive Touch 2.

The GENRE button allows you to easily browse hundreds of presets. Choose a style that suits you and VoiceLive Touch 2 will list the presets that fit your preference. If that wasn’t enough, you’ll be able to download new and exciting artist presets each month for free via VoiceSupport.

Make it a Hit

HIT is a performance-inspired feature for building intensity into any vocal performance. Every preset gains an A/B function via the HIT button – press to add dazzling effects for the chorus, or strip it down for the verse, you decide!

Add remote Mic Control™ with the TC-Helicon MP-75 or Sennheiser e835FX microphones for additional control of presets, performance effects and looping. Also available is the Switch 3 foot-switch.
