DOD make a multi effects processor called the VoTech, I beleive discontinued though, dedicated to vocals that can also be used during live performance.

Digitech also makes some vocal processors such as the VX 300, and the VX400.

These are only masking what the problem is though....voice lessons may help, but he just plain might be "wrong" for your band, and fit in extremely well in another band.

Now that I think of it, I seem to remember seeing a band years ago where the singer used an octave pedal, meant for guitar, on his vocals and he sounded like an ogre when using it. Of course you would want something that added a lower octave....like the old BOSS OC-2 which has two lower octaves that can be combined or used individually. Just cause it was made for a guitar doesn't mean that it can't be used for vocals as well. Be creative.

Good luck.



I did offer some real ideas to help. Jolly only offered sarcasm.

Look, could you not point out every time I'm sarcastic? People know I'm being sarcastic. If you're gonna point it out to me, do it in a pm so we don't clog any more threads.

you banned him :eek:

he was actually a really cool guy. and he was a luthier, he gave me lots of tips through PM's on how to get into luthiery, what schools would be good etc. it was very helpful as I'm looking at becoming a luthier.

he was actually really cool most of the time, and this thread just goes to show you how eager he was to help people... he just did it in the wrong way I guess... :(

Good to hear that, man. People care too much (people care too little, too) and then everybody's stressed out. Forget that, when I die, I don't want it to be stress-related.

Life's too short to worry, too long to regret - but just right for living.
Don't worry too much about me, ignore me long enough and I'll go away.

Girly singers to life views, hmm, can tell i'm at GT! :D


I've made several over the last five years or so...I've been to some very dark places in the past, but coming through those has made me realise how fun it can be just doing what you do; not getting caught up or consumed by trivial things. For me, I realised that all you've got, when it really comes down it, is what you make of life - not what you're told your life should be.

I'm in the process of going through another transistion...I'm considering emergrating (or returning seeing as I was born there) to New Zealand...I've realised there's nothing here that I'm actually tied to, and I'm bored and tired of all the nonsense that goes on in the UK, (I'm not daft enough to think NZ is without its own issues, "a change is as good as a holiday" type thing I guess). (God, I gone a bit, don't I?)...Anyway, enough!

Anyone else gone through or going through transistion they'd care to share?

And, yeah - you're definately at GT! ;)

Well one thing is everyone around me is pressuring me to go to college and get a good high paying job all the time. Since I am a senior this year, everyone is freaking out about graduation and any time anyone talks to me, it always starts out, whatcha gonna do when you graduate. I dont know, there are so many options out there now. I have decided to not worry so much about the future, plan for it, but not stress out over it, which I used to do. I enjoy coasting through high school and goofing off all the time, I don't take life as serious as most and it makes life more enjoyable.
