For musicians who cant accommodate a choir or group of background singers for their gigs or recording sessions, Roland proudly presents the VP-550 Vocal Designer Keyboard. Much more than a traditional vocoder or harmonizer, the VP-550 uses Rolands breakthrough vocal-modeling technology to bring the highest-quality, interactive vocal sounds to a dedicated instrument.
Shipping Cost :$0
Feature:
I think roland should have have made this keyboard with more editing features,some storage banks to store your patches,some talkbox imitations and more vocoder presets.
Quality:
This is Roland, always expect quality.
Value:
I think its a bit overpriced because its pretty much a vocoder with a human element to it.
Desirability:
It has a cool retro look to it.
Sound:
Pretty Clear but the background vocals you try to achieve on this still sounds a bit robotic.
Ease of Use:
Totally easy to use,everythings right in your face.
Support:
I didnt buy it so I cant comment on this one.
Overall:
All I can say is everyones ears are difft so dont take my advice,go in the store and check it out yourself.I personally own a "Digitech Talker" and a "Electrix Warp Factory" which I think are the best(For Vocoder Effects).The Vocal Harmony effects on the VP 550 are pretty good but again gives you a "Vocoder-ish" sound.I was expecting Roland with the technology they have to produce something to give TC Helicon a run for their money.Roland is a very clever company and Im sure they will come up with the Ultimate Digital Vocoder/Harmonizer one day(Hint Hint Roland).

Korg Microx 25-key Controller Synthesizer Keyboard Compact Synthesizers Korg Keyboards and MIDI Shipping Cost :$0 Feature: Lots to do here. The category button is very handy. Quality: Its definately not built the best. The patch knob came off in my hand first hour. My left hand baby finger keeps changing patches by mistake..... the notches are too easily triggered. The unit gets quite hot over time around the on/off push button and right hand side of keyboard on the top Value: considering the sould, i forgive the flimsy plastics. Desirability: it is defiately sexy. Turn knobs and amazing things happen over time. Great machine for inspiring instant ideas. Keyboard too small.... can get kinda frustrating Sound: has a sound of its own..... very useable grows on you quite nicely. The more you play it the more it inspires. Ease of Use: generally simple but can get quite involved the deeper you go. Lots of tweakability. FUN FUN. Overall: This is a sweet little MONSTER. Hours of interesting tweaking... and FULL OF FUN FACTOR. Retail Price :$750 Review this product |
