    • Lots of useful features in a compact space
style: VT-4 Pattern: Transformer
The VT4 is definitely a great tool for any vocal performance, and does a great job with special effects as well. There were several features I didn't expect but are great to have. - Pitch correction includes minor chords, and it works well in coordination with the vocoding. Being able to set the strength of the pitch correction is definitely a plus, especially when you are playing with glides or other vocal techniques. - Vocoding works well on it's own, and through USB you can set your own carrier sound. - There's a noise canceling function for killing feedback loops - There are four variations for things like echo, vocoder, harmony and megaphone - You can run mono out with a dry version of the sound on the other stereo out - You can use this as an audio capture and playback over USB - Harmonizer uses pitch and formant, to give a different feel to your backing vocals. Overall it feels solid, sounds great and has a lot more depth than first glance. The smaller size and lack of a giant blinky green border make this feel more like a real vocal tool. The only thing I wish it had was another audio in for carrier sounds on the vocoder, or for mixing in a stereo mix for things like Karaoke. You CAN get that when using a computer, but I don't always want to use a computer. ... show more

    • The best vocal processor from Roland
style: VT-4 Pattern: Transformer
I have several vocoders and processors and this out performs several competitors for the price. Easy to use and if you look hard enough you can find the USB charge plug for it to plug it into an AC outlet rather than use batteries or a USB port on your PC. Highly recommend the VT-4!

    • Ground loop issue with MG10XU & Balanced Mogami cables.
style: VT-4 Pattern: Transformer
As others have mentioned, the device feels a bit flimsy. For those who plan on using this as a travel device, it definitely wouldn't survive a drop off a table, or being banged around, so using a carry case is definitely recommended for you road warriors. On the matter of the ground loop issue, while connecting the VT-4 and powering via USB with a ground isolated cable on both the MG10XU and the VT-4, I was getting an excessive amount of noise that would come through on my headset and speakers. Once I powered the VT-4 externally, not relying on my computers USB bus for power, the issue went away. This doesn't necessarily mean that it's an issue with the device, it's just that the combination of the two led to this problem I was experiencing. USB power that comes from your motherboard is not always a reliable means for providing consistent power to your devices. There's ground loop isolation devices that you can purchase to correct this issue but for me the simplest solution was to just not power it via my computer directly. The VT-4 albeit an expensive device, provides quality effects that you'd expect from Roland. ... show more

The texture manipulation to the voice is phenomenal. You can only be limited by your own imagination if you lack it.

    • Absolutely STELLAR.
Are there better products? Possibly. I'm sure there are, but they may be twice the price or more. Or, fewer features but better at that more select few. For the price, this thing is a great value. You can alter your voice in many fun, creepy and entertaining ways. I host a live show on the internet and always have people asking about what I use to play with my voice. It cracks most viewers up. It also interfaces with other devices quite well, and you can even run music through the effects. At this point, I deem it to be essential to my show. ... show more

    • Not bad, but not great
EDIT:: yes, turns out you *can* use it as an interface, I just derped out on that one. Not bad, but not great. (although it could have been.) Thing is, all the features Roland advertises are true, and that's why I *want* to rate this thing at a five. But that said, for all it does offer, (and make no mistake, this little guy is PACKED with features) I'll only list the negatives for this one, for the buyer's sake: 1) What they don't tell you is that it's as total PIA to set up as a standalone interface. (This is not it's primary purpose, which is fine, but if the USB on the back is any indication, there's no reason this shouldn't have been easy to set up.) Personally, I've currently wired it up to the FX send/return on my mixer, but for all other things, software / driver dependence just makes me cringe. Which is....disappointing. I'd imagine this'd be a negative for most folks looking at this thing. 2) Secondly, and more importantly, the VT-3 *mixes wet and dry signals.* No matter how it's configured, your standard, untouched voice gets mixed in with the vocoded, pitch-shifted, radio'd voice in the end result. As I've mentioned, I have it configured in an analogue format as an FX module, (there's no reason it shouldn't work as expected in this config) so I have yet to determine if it can output ONLY the wet signal if configured properly as an interface or auxillary device, etc, but I figured I'd bring it up anyway. I don't particularly mind this, but then again, I have a very unusual and VERY specific use-case, so you the viewer have to decide for yourself whether or not you want your original voice mixed in with the FX. No matter how high the FX slider is on the VT-3, the original vocals are always there. 3) Lastly, this thing just murders sound quality. Again, it's possible that this is fixed in interface mode, but in general, the dry signal from my mixer is clean AF without the VT-3 involved, but as soon as it gets processed through the VT-3, or *even passed through with the "bypass" enabled,* everything just sounds muddy and dirty. This is, again, with a completely analogue setup, without the USB involved, mind you. I don't even have that good an ear, and it sounds bad. Headphones in the mixer with the VT-3 hooked up to the aux / FX return, muddy. Hooked up to the final input destination, still muddy. VT-3 tested "standalone" with headphones coming directly out the front.....very muddy, still. Again, this is possibly due to the design, since this thing is marketed as a "vocoder," and the vocoded signal won't require a very high fidelity signal, which is totally fine, but I feel like this thing could have REALLY stood out for more than just live musicians (recording artists, streamers, youtubers, etc) if it weren't for this one drawback. Just for the record: If you're intending to use it like I am, integrating it with your mixer, you can fix this problem just by turning down the FX or Aux knob when this thing isn't in use. This IS a good piece of hardware, and my experience with Roland has usually been stellar, so it's really disappointing for me to see gear like this with ridiculous potential just fall flat in so many critical areas. I *will* recommend it, but only if you completely understand what you're buying into. ... show more

    • Fun fun fun
At first I didn't like the simple controls and the lack of ability to control the parameters of each effect. But after using it live I love the simplicity and the creative effects you can get because of the limitations. Try plugging a mini synth like the korg volca fm into the 1/8" input. The glitches the VT-3 produces when you do this are really nice, and it works as a two channel mixer this way. I'm using it as a direct box for my viola in a new project I'm working on and it's just great. If the VT-3 doesn't at least make you smile I'm sorry for you. ... show more
