Re: Vocal Harmonizer recommendations?

The TC Electronics Quintet is not bad and you can find them
on eBay for a good price $350. However unlike the Digitech you will need
midi say from a keyboard or midi guitar which is what I used to track the
chord/key changes. To be honest unless you pay mega bucks they all sound
a bit cheesy. Far better looping your vocal harmony as it's all
natural.
