Description

The essentials to know about the TC Helicon VoiceTone Single E1 pedal

  • 12 types of echoes and delays to go from slap-back rockabilly to long psychedelic repeats, with a clean and musical sound.
  • Foot Tap Tempo to instantly lock the delay to the song's tempo, both live and in the studio.
  • High-quality built-in microphone preamp, quiet and transparent, housed in a sturdy metal chassis with a non-slip base.
  • Expandable and designed for pedalboards: can be chained with other VoiceTone Singles pedals and remotely controlled via the optional MP-75 microphone.

A "vocal delay" pedal that brought echo back to center stage

For a long time, foot-operated delays were the domain of guitarists. With the VoiceTone Single E1, TC Helicon transposed this logic of instant, rhythmic, and playable effect to the world of singing: a compact format, straightforward controls, and processing quality that does not degrade the voice. Within the VoiceTone Singles range, the E1 occupies the role of the dedicated tool for repeats (echo and delay), to be combined as needed with other vocal pedals in the series to build a coherent effects chain.

For whom, for which styles, and in what contexts?

The VoiceTone E1 is aimed at singers who want to thicken a lead vocal, create a call-and-response with echoes, or establish a wider ambiance without complicating their setup. It also suits acoustic duos, pop/rock bands, electro projects, and performances where well-timed delays are desired (without relying on a console effect).

In the studio, it becomes a quick solution to record a "stage" intention (slap, short echo, longer delay) while maintaining control over the mix. On stage, the Tap Tempo and direct access to controls allow adaptation to a slightly shifting tempo or a more energetic live version.

Simple controls, immediate results: Tap, Feedback, Dry/Wet

The interface is designed to get straight to the point: plug in the microphone, adjust the input level, and activate the effect. The heart of the E1 is its style selector covering 12 types of echoes and delays (with a dedicated Tap mode for subdivisions), ranging from slap-back to longer delays. The foot Tap allows synchronization of repeats to the song's tempo, with no menus or navigation.

The Feedback control governs the duration and number of repeats: from a subtle echo supporting the voice to more prominent trails for floating phrase endings. The Dry/Wet mix adjusts the balance between the original voice and the effect, useful for maintaining clear articulation in the mix. Finally, the Mic Control feature (with the optional MP-75 microphone) enables remote activation or deactivation of the effect directly from the mic, avoiding having to "search" for the pedal visually.

The sound

The VoiceTone Single E1 is designed to respect the timbre: the echo adds depth without compressing dynamics, and the repeats remain clear even when increasing Feedback. You can easily achieve a tight, percussive slap for rock'n'roll verses, a broader echo to open a chorus, or a longer delay for pop/indie atmospheres and transitions. The quality of the preamp and digital processing contributes to maintaining a "pro" feel on the voice, with low background noise.

This pedal has been seen in setups of artists like Dallon Weekes (vocals/bass) and Zac Sokolow, indicating it fits both frontman approaches and more instrumental stage configurations.
