TC-Helicon announces three new VoiceTone Single vocal effects pedals: H1, E1 and X1.
VoiceTone H1 joins a growing list of chart-topping vocal effects in the VoiceTone Singles line including VoiceTone T1, C1, D1, E1, X1, and R1. Up to four VoiceTone Singles can be connected together with the Singles Connection Kit to form the ultimate custom vocal processing chain. The kit includes a 12V power supply, 3 x DC daisy-chaining connectors, 3 x short XLR cables.
VoiceTone E1 gives any vocalist simple access to delays and echos used in hit music production. Slapback, Echo, Tap Echo and FX styles can easily be selected and then tuned with the Feedback and Analog controls.
VoiceTone X1 borrows technology from TC-Helicon's infamous Transducer block to emulate the sounds of telephones, distortions and amps to make vocals stand out in a mix.

Apr 4 - 09:39 AM | Computer Hardware > RME |
RME presents a new Remote Control for Fireface UFX and ADI-8 QS.
The optional remote has a solid metal case with one big wheel dial and two push buttons. The functions of the ADI-8 QS stay unchanged (volume, store, recall). On the Fireface UFX the remote controls the most important monitoring functions:
- Volume control of the main output and both headphone outputs (switchable)
- DIM (user adjustable value)
- Recall and store of a reference level for the main outputs (user adjustable value)
- Left button (Prog) is programmable and can control functions like Talkback, Speaker B, mono etc.
The Remote Control connects to the Fireface UFX and the ADI-8 QS via a 5 m (16 ft.) cable and a special connector on the back of both units. It replaces the old RME Remote Control for the ADI-8 QS. Availability is expected June 2011.
