The Voice Box packs a multi-functional vocal synth processor into a tough and compact chassis. Sing, and you’ll have a troupe of backup singers following you in perfect harmony. Or use the built-in vocoder to unleash classic synth-robot sounds.
Diana Ross had the Supremes, Brian Wilson had the Beach Boys, Kraftwerk had The Robots. You have the Voice Box.
The harmony processor creates 2- to 4-part harmonies directly from your vocals, in the same key as your accompanying instrument. Studio-quality
reverb lets you independently add depth to your dry and harmony vocals.
The focused 256-band articulate vocoder, designed by the same EMS genius who made vocoding famous, features adjustable harmonic enhancement and controllable formant shift.
Plug in your mic and your instrument, and let your new voice—or voices—be heard!

“The envelope, please.” The multi-talented Bayu Ardianto captures a first-place win with his latest VideoSong, Inveitability, in the IndieFone Film Festival. Bayu relied on EHX pedals to help him score.

Check out the dead-on Leslie from the HOG and POG 2 integrated with the Stereo Pulsar. Natalia Pratiwi provides super-cool vocals with backing from the Voice Box while Dika Charles Dickson’s drumming is always in the pocket.
Here’s the latest videosong by the multi-talented Bayu Ardianto. This time he’s collaborating with Lola Bangs The Drums, a duet featuring Natalia Pratiwi and Dika Charles Dickson.
The title of the original song is “Dekati Aku” which translates to “come and get me!”
When producing this videosong Bayu drew inspiration from big band, swing music. He explained that because he doesn’t have brass instruments he mimicked the brass with his pianica and an EHX Voice Box in unison mode (one octave higher, one octave lower).
Bayu used the following EHX products in this production: Voice Box (pianica) Cathedral Stereo Reverb (electric guitar, electric piano, acoustic guitar) Stereo Pulsar (electric guitar)
Russian Big Muff Pi (bass, lead synthesizer) Double Muff (electric guitar)

Tommy (that’s her name) manages a ukulele shop in Japan. Here she performs the classic B.J. Thomas tune, “Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head” using an EHX Voice Box Vocal Harmony Machine/Vocoder.

Big thanks to Eric Myers for this amazing performance of Neil Young's "After the Goldrush." Eric used the Voice Box in vocoder mode to merge his voice with the melody, as played via electric guitar. He combined the synthed-out vocals with acoustic tracks to produce this updated "twenty-first century" version of a classic song. Don't miss the third stanza: "Well, I dreamed I saw the silver space ships flying..."
