What Every Singer Wants

Keep your vocals clean with a tight reverb or simple harmony – or go all out with tasty delays, thick doubling, edgy hardtuning, cool modulations, and raw distortions. The choice is yours with hundreds of presets from the most popular styles

Acoustic Alchemy

Play Acoustic treats your guitar with the respect it deserves. Tailor-made guitar FX from TC ELECTRONIC add a sweet touch of magic and our new BodyRez gives you a fuller, acoustic tone when you’re playing through a PA

Vocal FX + Guitar FX in One Pedal

1. Access your effects directly, choose the presets you want and find the styles you like.

2. Easily browse hundreds of preset sounds.

3. Add dazzling effects for the chorus, or strip it down for the verse, you decide!

4. Dedicated inputs and outputs for your voice and guitar – plus inputs for headphones, auxiliary devices, an expansion pedal and USB for recording, updates and new presets.

What They Say

“You can dial in a fantastic guitar sound, fill a room with amazing vocal effects and backing harmonies, and even loop musical phrases. This simple stomp box contains some serious technology in an easy-to-use platform.”
-Cult of Mac

"As a vocal enhancer this piece of kit is up there with the best. The sound is full and clean, and the harmonies realistic. The more you fiddle, the more you get from this packed piece of gear - take the option of looping as an example."
-Songwriting Magazine

"Without the effects on, it gave my guitar and voice nice, clean tones. Add to that the beautiful effects and the ease of use, and the total makes the TC Helicon Play Acoustic a fantastic addition to any singer/songwriter’s performance rig!"
-inSync Magazine

Included Vocal FX

Harmony

Likely the most popular and impressive of our effects suite, Harmony creates up to 8 voices of harmony (varies by product), based on your vocal input and surrounds you with professional sounding backup singers. Once you’ve added harmony to your performance, we think you’ll never want to sing without it.

Double

Doubling creates an effect that makes your voice sound “larger” in the mix. It’s an extremely popular effect in a wide variety of musical styles from Pop to Hip-Hop and everything in between.

Delay

Also known as Echo, delay repeats the input sound in various ways, from single “taps” to multiple panned asynchronous repeats. Often, delay is mistaken for reverb in a song. It’s typical in a recording to use a small amount of both delay and reverb to create the desired spatial effects

Reverb

Short for Reverberation, reverb simulates an acoustic space like a concert hall or a bathroom.
Typically, slower songs use longer reverb and faster songs use shorter reverb.

HardTune

Some people know it as the Cher or T-Pain effect. We call it HardTune. It’s a very aggressive form of pitch correction that forces the voice to “jump” from one note to the next in an almost robotic way. The effect works the best when confined to a set scale, where the intervals between notes are more noticeable. To get the most out of the effect, you’ll need to adapt your singing style to help accentuate the way that your voice shifts from note to note. Try sliding between notes.

Transducer

Any effect that provides overdrive, distortion or filter falls under Transducer effects. You’ll find effects like Megaphone, Radio, Amplifier Emulation and more here. Always take care when using transducer effects in a live situation. Due to the extreme gains and eq’s imparted on the signal, these effects are very prone to feedback.

µMod

µMod, pronounced “micro mod” contains effects that chorus, flange or otherwise modulate the signal.
These effects can range from subtle to extreme

Watch It Work

We asked Singer-songwriters Clara C and Luca Fogale to showcase their favorite presets in Play Acoustic. It was recorded live, using direct out from Play Acoustic. So, sit back, relax and drink in the vibes...

Natural Harmony

You have a tireless two-singer backing group which sounds more realistic than ever with improved portamento and humanization on our already renowned harmony effects. And don’t worry about setting the key: Play Acoustic follows your guitar chords automatically for harmonies that stay in tune and in time.

What Every Singer Needs

Equipped with our trademark Adaptive Tone, Play Acoustic acts as your personal sound engineer providing the one feature no singer should be without: automatic intelligent control of Compression, EQ, De-essing, and Gating, giving your voice impact and presence to always stand out in the mix.

Practice Favorite Tracks with Vocal Cancel

Singing along is a great way to practice and perform. Plug in your MP3 player via the AUX In connector and use the Vocal Cancel feature to make your voice stand out over the vocals on the original track. You can also record and play back your singing using the USB connection to your computer and DAW.
