REVIEWS
Quality:
Finsih and fit are great but what good is that if the product doesn't deliver.

Sound:
Ok for playing cds and adjusting the pitch, and speed but not too much.

Overall:
From the advertisements it appears to be a great piece of equipment to remove vocals and use various pitch correction, speed control and transposition. The input for the mic outputs to a stereo out along with the cd. This is the only way to be able to use the reverbs. It is useless in that regard. It doesn't remove the vocals on most cds. I did have some success on some of Jimmy Buffets CDs. The engineers who disigned this thing couldn't have been musicians because it has lots of features that cannot be used independently. For instancde, you must have a high quality connector from the output to the innput of the mixer or power source or you loose the mic quality. The reverb can only be used if a mic is connected into the mic input. If were to use a mic pre amp into the direct in the reverb is bypassed.I was very dissapointed with this. It is very one dimensional. Leave it on the shelf!
