I understand I can use it by selecting the key the song is played in? Does anyone know if I can use the music from the karaoke machine as an input thru the guitar mode to auto set the key and harmony? Does TC Helicon make a different device better...

Yes. It is a plug n play. The mic plugs in the unit and the out goes to whatever....cool stuff!

I have one and works great with my Harmony GXT. and with most TC-Helicon's products. The best answer you can get is here http://www.tc-helicon.com/products/mp-75

I don't know if I had one I would try it out. I've been wanting to karaoke lately. I don't see why it wouldn't. it plays my dvds that were blocked on my last computer.

I've tried myself. I researched many sites only to find that a replacementIs most likely twice the money. The newer helicons with midi go for 400-600 dollars. I would suggest the tc voice works 1rack space unit. The foot switch type are good for hands free, however if you program harmony as I do the voice works is less expensive with the same features for under 300.00. As usual when someone makes the perfect product, they stop making it. I've seen othe companies go belly up with the same philosophy. Hope it works for them....

Most of the commands will translate to the newer versions of Serato. I previously used it with ITCH but as of late I've been using it with the newest version of Serato DJ and I haven't ran into any issues. As far as the video features this was around before Serato Video, so there aren't any shortcuts displayed for video; so if you are primarily using Serato for music this is a very viable option.

I'm not really sure. Although, I do use the double voice when I play "Blackbird" and it stays on key. That's about the only finger picking tune I do. I would think as long as the notes are going into the box....it'll pick them up. You can also set the key manually if you like. Sorry I can't be if more help on that

No, on the one I bought the C key actually played the note B flat. I assume all of them would be tuned slightly different though. Hard to fine tune a cheap toy. BUT IT IS POLYPHONIC!!

I've never used the "karaoke" because this setting would have too much echo. On this unit, I normally use the "reverb hall" setting to add echo to singers. My thought, make sure that the "effects return" dial is turned up about 3/4 and the line "effects" dial adjusted to reach the desired echo amount. Know it's not directly addressing your question but hope it helps.

Yes! I've plugged my bass guitar and the VTH, was able to harmonize to the song, by simply following my bass line. I definitely think that it will also work with a keyboard, or anything else. Have fun exploring!

I have only recently "needed" a capo, when I wanted to play and sing a song that was lower in key. I also wanted to practice with the original song played from my computer, and realized I couldn't change the key on my own to play the exact note, but to use the capo. Does this make sense? So unless you encounter in such situations, I don't think you "need" it. I've owned ukulele for 8 years and never needed until I encountered this one song this year.

Bernadette, I don't have this particular item, but own TC Electronics VoiceLive Touch Vocal Effects Processor and plug my iphone/ipod into it, connect to an amp, connect the TC Electronics Vocal Microphone MP-75 Dynamic Microphone, Super-Cardiod to it and sing along with my own tunes. My friends and I have a blast with the different voice settings. I am no pro by any means, this was all in the name of having fun. Have not tried connecting my computer yet, to try and access my itunes account. Initially, I was looking for something for my computer, but stumbled onto this and have no regrets.

I've done it but its really glitchy and unnatural sounding. Helicon makes a good, inexpensive harmonizer. I picked one up used for 60 bucks at Guitar Center.

Well, I had never used that utility before, but I tried it and it seems like it works. I put in an Eb7,Ebm7, then eb7 just to test it. Then I transposed chromatically up a perfect 4th and it changed the chord symbols to Ab7, Abm7, and Ab7. Just a bit more: Playback quality on Notion is much more pleasing than Finale and notation is quicker and more convenient with keyboard shortcuts and easy access to written notes. (click and drag them instead of having to search of the pitch change tool). The only ups I've found with Finale vs Notion is thta Finale gives you more options with notation appearances. You can place things exacty where YOU want like crescendos, text, pedal markings, dynamics. notion also lets you do this, but it has this kind of auto correct placement thing where it snaps the dynamic cyou pick under the beat you placed it on. this is still pretty accurate and you can still move thingsaround but a little less. I personally prefer Notion - it's altogether more convenient and satisfying in my opinion. :)

It will work without a guitar, but not as well. It triggers off the guitar input to select the right harmonies based on the chord it hears. Without that input, you can select the key you are singing in, but when I tested it, the response did not seem accurate to me. It really is intended to be used with a guitar.

alice--i am not sure what auto chording is, however, you can with the push of a button change keys. for example, let's say your playing a simple "c" chord. you can continue to play the same "c" chord, but push the button and change it to another key. hope this helps. i love it. tom.

To be honest I use the keyboard as part of my band. I have never use it for what you are inquiring about. Cannot give any advice.

No. This is a standard audio mixer and is easily incorporated into karaoke systems, but it does not change keys for individual songs. Most karaoke players or karaoke software should do that for you. This is a great product that allows you to integrate a variety of system components together -- mics/wireless mics, audio source input, instruments. Each line in can be independently adjusted for volume, digital effects, etc., then you can easily output to powered speakers or to a home theater system. I input wireless mics and kJams from a MBP to this mixer, then output to a mid-level Yamaha AVR w/ Klipsch reference surround. Works awesome for home karaoke.
