Thanks for the down to earth review, I very much enjoyed it not seeming like a sales pitch. I ordered the processor yesterday along with the switch 6 which I am a little nervous about because it is coming from Germany in these crazy time we are living in, but none available in Canada or US at this time. I have faith it will arrive and listening to your review assures me it is a necessary accessory for the Helicon Perform.

I've used the Perform VG for two or three gigs a week for the past year or so and have been very happy with it.

I have had these types of systems for awhile. And your comment to the effect that you can't get the 'wet' guitar signal out separately is certainly a concern. However, you do have a 'mix' control that can completely mute the guitar out from the single XLR connection to the FOH mixer. Then, of course, you can get the 'dry' guitar signal out to an amp, where you can use the basic effects, (chorus, reverb, and delay), on a multi-effects processor; split that with a DI, and take that 'wet' signal to the board and to an amp simultaneously. But, you probably knew that! LOL! A couple of the 'Acoustic' brand amps do this really well!

Hey there great vid, I just had one question to make things clear about the separating of signals. If you have an xlr in and out and also a guitar through, will both signals be completely separated? Or will the mic still have guitar mixed in while the through is a dry signal?

I wanted to run a guitar through to a pedal board for my effects but have it through the perform vg so that the harmonies would be spot on as I don't trust the room mic.

Thanks

Hey, thanks for the review video. You've helped me to make my mind up! I was just wondering, is using a switchboard with around 6 switches necessary or would a switchboard with 3 do just as well with no real drawbacks?

Hey, very nice review. Really impressed by it and want to get it
Just wanted to find out how I can play live with it with the guitar and mic plugged into the perform vg, what interface would I need for that? Can I also use a guitar amp?

You said that you can use it with voice and guitar and apply the effects to both without separating them.
If I were to use it as an acoustic guitar effects only (not using it for voice) would it add effects like reverb and delay for the guitar that could go into the house? I would only have the guitar plugged into the effects unit.
My scenario would be...we have a sound guy and I wouldn't be using it for voice, but sometimes it would be nice to bring on some reverb on my guitar.
Also, does it have a gain adjustment for the guitar-in jack?

Can you confirm for me, does the TC Helicon Perform VG have a Double - Doubling voice effect?
(The Perform V have it as a button, and the Perform VK can Import the Doubling effect as a Preset with the app through the Beam- Beamable, but for the Perform VG I can't find the answer on the internet

You know a power bank that'll work with it?

How would you compare this to the TC Helicon Voicelive Play Acoustic?
It looks like the VL has pretty awesome vocal FX.

Mr Nelson, which model of guitar is that? Pickup sounds nice, thanks

Hello, I'm in a journey for vocal pedal effects. I really like there more individual version like the the Mic Mechanic , duplicator, etc. But you cannot connect them in chain. The other is the acustic live play, but I find it more complicated for live situations, maybe is my perception. Do you think the VG could be in between for what I looking for?
There are also the Boss like the ve 2, ve8 .
What's your recomendación?
Thank you for the review

Can you use it with a wireless microphone too?

What'd you think of the Perform VG? Is this something that you would consider adding to your rig?

I wonder if an XLR cord that Y-splits into two TS (unbalanced) cords will separate the mic from the guitar channels.

This thing is terrible. The guitar effects are hideous!! I'm a big TC helicon fan . Great idea but wait till they come out with the VG 2
