Sounds ok, but made poorly
Got dead screen quickly, that is a common problem. When it was opened, so much things were under suspicion. Almost everything didn't look like it supposed to be. In the end, yes, dead display, need replacement :(
Preferred Settings + Usage:
I made a preset with wiiiide chorus, extreamely big and long reverb (3-4 secs and very much WET), and harmonizer -2 and +7 from G#. Sounds gorgeous in my music

My live vocal-editor.
My live vocal-editor.
I love using this pedal when performing live to apply effects such as Auto-Tune, Reverb, Delay, and Distortion (as a megaphone effect). It also has a fantastic harmonizer that sounds amazing through loudspeakers.
I love the "hit" button on it, and the fact that you can control it live, even better with the use of a TC Helicon MP-75 microphone.
If you've seen me perform live, you've probably seen this pedal.

The benefit of the doubt
Only just picked this up and haven't had time to shape my own sounds yet, but some of the presents are truly awesome. And some are way too subtle. Really hoping the in-built mics that listen to the music to decipher the key of the song for harmonies etc. works, and the harmonies don't sound too unnatural, but the main thing I bought this for is reverb and delay, and some megaphone/distortion effects. I'm quite taken with a flanger I've heard too!

Easy to use, inspires new ideas, built like a tank, great software!
Anyone who thumbs their noses at these products is an extinct dinosaur. The megaphone presets (of which there are many), distorted vocals, reverb and delay effects are worth the cost. Then add the voice doubling, octaves up and/or down, and other harmony effects. Most of you [singers] have doubled a vocal track in the studio. Now you can get that sound on stage. Highly recommend this product to any singer who isn't singing Opera. One of my favorite settings is the Rockabilly slap-back!

Nice little box
Very easy in usage, fast and convenient tweaks. Not really flexible, but good enough to experiment with. I use it as a effector for main vocals, and that's great.

It does what it has to do

The stomps I use are a Pro Co Rat for aggressive, distortion/fuzz tones, a Strymon Flint for any reverb and tremolo needs, and an Ibanez TS9 Tube Screamer for some warm saturation. Everything runs into a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe III. It’s as simple as they come—a single 12-inch speaker and 50 watts of pure volume and fury. I use a TC-Helicon VoiceLive Play for some reverb and delay on my vocals because you can never trust a sound guy [laughs]. At this point, I don’t think I’ll ever change my rig.”
