Re: DigiTech Harmonizer Vocalist 2 vs. 4?

[Cara Quinn <Cara-Quinn@earthlink.net>]

   I haven't had the chance to A/B both, but I own the Digitech Studio  
Vocalist EX, which is amazingly cool btw, and I know that IVL is  
responsible for the actual harmonizer sections of both the Studio  
Vocalist EX and the TC Helicon VoicePrism and VoicePrism+.  (not sure  
about the Voice Works, but I'd assume same)

   One diff between the Studio Vocalist EX and the Prism is that the  
EX also does pitch correction on the dry signal, whereas the Prism  
does not.  However, the Prism+ has a whole host of other vocal  
modeling capabilities which the EX does not.
   Also, (supposedly) the Prism does not have the ability (as the EX  
does) of allowing midi data in a limited range to effect the input  
pitch in a much wider range.  I.E.  if one only has a one octave  
keyboard, one could play chords while singing in a completely  
different octave and the harmonized pitches would still fall within an  
octave of the sung pitch, rather than be the actual midi notes  
generated from the keyboard.

HTH and have a great evening!…

Smiles,

Cara  :)
