I don't think you'll get anything out there that will make your vocals sound better than this for less than $70. I'm using this in combination with a Shure BETA87C Condenser Cardioid microphone. There is no switch for phantom power on or off, which makes a lot of people hesitant, so let me clarify this myth for you: if the mic has a balanced output, and is wired correctly, even if the mic is a dynamic or ribbon type, phantom will not hurt the mic. So technically as long as you're not connecting microphones with TS jacks, you should be good. For doing that you would need adapters anyways because the in and out of this pedal is exclusively XLR cannon balanced, so in short, any standard microphone should be fine with this. The shape knob changes the tone from darker to brighter, so if your mic is on the darker side, go all the way up and then down from there. If it's too bright, go the other way around. With my mic, since I record a lot of rock, I set the Comp / De-ess to max and the Shape around 10-11 o'clock, with the Warmth switch on. This is the kind of effect that you only perceive when you turn it off. Only then you can tell the difference. So this in combination with a nice preamp should give you some instant magic. I'm using these in combination with the preamps in the Komplete Audio 6 which I think are nothing short of amazing for the price. I hardly take this much time to write a detailed review but this thing improved so much my vocals it's not even funny. GREAT little toy, going to be using this one in a lot of my professional productions! Review: Very Disappointing. - Perhaps the electronic components in this device have aged-out sitting on the TC Helicon shelf. I'd love to try another, but i don't want to risk getting the same thing. Unfortunately, neither the compression nor the shape control were the least bit noticeable. The warmth was subtle. The volume knob worked fine. I bought this because i wanted a live performance compressor with xlr inputs and outputs. I have to return this. Tell me there was a batch quality mishap that's been corrected and I'll buy it again, as i want what the product is supposed to offer. It just didn't deliver on its promise. Bummer. ## Features - Studio vocal tone without the hassle - High quality multi-band EQ - Smoothing compressor & De-Esser - Chains to additional VoiceTone singles - Mic-Control on/off with TC-Helicon MP-75 Mic ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00HMQ1D06 | | Amperage | 0.4 milliamps | | Audio Output Effects | Compression | | Best Sellers Rank | #55,755 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #41 in Vocal Effects Processors | | Brand | TC Helicon | | Brand Name | TC Helicon | | Color | black | | Connector Type | XLR | | Controls Type | Knob | | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 101 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04033653081078, 05706622011916 | | Hardware Interface | 1/4-inch Audio | | Included Components | Vocal Effects Processor, Microphone | | Item Dimensions | 2.3 x 3.5 x 5.4 inches | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 2.3"L x 3.5"W x 5.4"H | | Item Type Name | VOICETONE T1 Vocal Effects Processor | | Item Weight | 14.72 ounces | | Manufacturer | Music Tribe US | | Manufacturer Part Number | P0DE3 | | Model Name | VoiceTone Single T1 | | Model Number | VOICETONE T1 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 2.3"L x 3.5"W x 5.4"H | | Set Name | VOICETONE T1 | | Signal Format | Analog | | Style | Boom microphone stand with a telescoping boom arm | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 12 | | Warranty Description | 1 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** TC Helicon - **Style:** Compact - **Product Dimensions:** 2.3"L x 3.5"W x 5.4"H - **Item Weight:** 14.72 ounces - **Voltage:** 12 ## Images ![VOICETONE T1 Single-Button Stompbox for Studio Mastered Vocal Tone - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71JnRjnIMtL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it have an output limiter for smoother vocal recording?** A: That is part of the system. It is a bit confusing to work with. You have to play around with it. It also has one of the dials that give you a crispy sound that is popular these days. I have decided to do without this unit since I think I have better vocal control "naked". There is nothing that can beat improving your voice, finding the right tone yourself, and having a decent mic and a decent amp. Then post production even garage band will have more options than this unit for sound quality. There are so many factors that go into getting good vocal sound live, I think this unit might just make it more complex rather than less. There is nothing that can beat singing better. Hope this helps. **Q: will garageband recognize my mic if I connect the pedal to my laptop?** A: Since you route the microphone signal directly into the TC Helicon pedal, if you can get the signal from the pedal into an 'audio interface' (i.e. Mbox, Focusrite, etc).. then sure it will work just fine. You do have to have an external audio interface to plug the microphone into. http://www.amazon.com/Digidesign-Audio-Interface-Macintosh-Windows/dp/B0002EJV72/ref=sr_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1452621973&sr=8-14&keywords=Mbox **Q: I have a Gemini 15 inch Bluetooth speaker with mic karaoke speaker no reverb will this work to add vocal effects?** A: No reverb or chorus on this. You might be better off with a box that has at least those two effects. **Q: I can tell no difference when I dial the knobs, and only a small difference with warmth. Is this thing bad?** A: I initially had the same impression since the documentation totally stinks. I played around and figured it out (mostly). TL;DR - If the Mic Gain on the side of the unit isn't high enough to make the Input Level LED light green, you won't trigger the unit's magic. Details: This Shape processor is "adaptive", so it basically alters it's behavior whenever it gets a signal. So the Input Level LED is critical to keep an eye on, since if it's not lighting green, your signal may not be sufficient to trigger the processing. You need to put the Mic Gain up on the unit and then lower the gain at your pre-amp/mixer. If you sing a constant tone at a low volume (where the Green LED never lights), and mess with the Shape knob, you won't hear any difference. But if you sing louder, you'll hear the signal get brighter when the Shape knob is all the way to the right and the effect will be zero all the way to the left. If you tune the knobs when you're silent nothing will change, and then you'll hear it "kick in" and change from the previous state once you start singing. For example: Put the shape knob all the way to the right and sing a note and make sure the green light is lit some of the time. Then turn the pedal on/off you'll be able to clearly hear the change. Now, while the pedal is on sing a note and then go silent. While still silent, turn the shape knob all the way to the left. Sing a sustained note and you'll hear that it will start at the previous brightness and then "adapt" to the zero setting. I assume the compressor also needs some minimum input volume to kick in. I just got the unit so I haven't tested that extensively. But I have noticed the de-ess works very well when the knob is all the way to the right. In summary, this unit makes subtle (but not unnoticeable) changes to your voice while sounding natural, but only when your mic gain on the unit is up enough to make the green light come on most of time.

A little advice to people who plan to buy this, it doesn't necessarily work right away, it takes a little bit to dial in and after a while you start to notice a difference, and you notice more on a pa. I first used this on a bass amp and didn't hear anything, plugged it into my pa and I can hear a difference. My voice isn't the greatest, but it definitely helps make it more listenable when I do "clean" vocals for metalcore music, I tap it off when I do screams. I give it 5 stars because it does help. Don't expect it to make you sound like a professional, it just makes your tone sound better. I do recommend it. ## Frequently Bought Together - TC Helicon VOICETONE T1 Single-Button Stompbox for Studio Mastered Vocal Tone - TC Helicon VOICETONE R1 Single-Button Stompbox for Studio-Quality Live Vocal Reverb - TC-Helicon VoiceTone D1 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.uy/products/1630939-voicetone-t1-single-button-stompbox-for-studio-mastered-vocal-tone](https://www.desertcart.uy/products/1630939-voicetone-t1-single-button-stompbox-for-studio-mastered-vocal-tone) --- *Product available on Desertcart Uruguay* *Store origin: UY* *Last updated: 2026-09-25*
