The handy Favourite Sound function, for example, lets you instantly access your preferred sounds with a press of button.

Diverse ApplicationsThe VE-5 works great for a variety of settings. Perfect for live performers, the included mount lets you attach it to any standard microphone stand. Some of the VE-5’s functions can even be controlled by footswitches, which is great for hands-free operation. When powered by batteries, the VE-5 becomes an ideal tool for street performance, and it also fits beautifully in homes and studios as a tabletop processor.

Great Presets and High-Quality EffectsThe VE-5 has six types of high-quality effects and various special processing, all taken from the VE-20.

Use the onboard Distortion, Radio, and Strobe for unique and impactful special effects. You can even create iconic pitch-correct / hard-tune effects — a staple of many modern hip-hop and pop hits.

Built-In Phrase LooperEnjoy layering and looping your voice with the VE-5’s built-in Phrase Looper. You can generate harmonies with yourself in real time, or jam over your own looped beatboxing. This creative feature greatly expands the potential of real-time vocal performance.
