This is me doing some virtual busking on an open mic site with "Comfortably Numb". Sorry about the water mark on the video... they automatically record the performances and overlay the text on the video.
PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

Thanks guys. I'm using a TC Helicon VoiceLive 2. It's a great piece of gear and the newest firmware now has looping so I will hopefully be doing some fun stuff with that too!

Again, very impressive. Nice harmonizer - do you set it once for each song or are there multiple settings within a single song?

I just re-read the text with your video. Open mic night? Is this the sort of talent generally seen at an open mic night? I find this both alarming and intimidating at the same time.

Thanks again guys. The VoiceLive 2 is a floor pedal unit with 10 separate foot switches for controlling the vocal effects during live performance. The harmonies are dynamically created based on an instrument input (guitar, keyboard, or aux audio-mp3 player) or you can simply set the key of the song and go. It also dynamicaly adjusts EQ, tone, and compression based on the vocal signal coming in to optimize the vocal sound. You can read all the technical details and watch demos here:
