■■ Main features of the V3

We packed the functions that vocalists need most into a compact unit that is easy to carry around. You can use it on a table top or attached to a mic stand.
Easy sound creation
Creating sounds is as easy as turning knobs and pressing switches.
Singing assistance
The compressor evens out volume and the enhance function adds clarity to make singing easier.
Delay, reverb and other effects

Delay and reverb can be used simultaneously with another effect.
