Pedal failing

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - I bought a Critical Mass pedal, but the footswitch only works while I press it.
  • - Plans to use it for solo church singing and seeks options to fix.

I bought a critical mass pedal, but the footswitch is not working properly. If I keep pushing it, it works, but if I move my foot, it doesn't keep working.

My question is: what can I do? I want to use it in my church because I'm singing by myself and I want to feel a little bit.

Loss:
$150
Pros:
  • I like but i want to change it for other different in working conditions
Cons:
  • I used my pedal once or twice and is not working

Loop doesn’t work properly

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Loop on Play Acoustic won't work with the extension; settings don't stick.
  • - It often defaults to stop/start and is overall a useless kit.

I have a tc helicon play acoustic and the tc helicon footpedle extension. However the loop on the acoustic play doesnt work with the extension.

It reconises it there but whatever you customise the channels as it doesnt stick with those and often just defaults as stop start only. Useless bit of kit

Poor Product Support

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - There is no clear answer on true bypass vs diminished vocal with Harmony Singer 2.
  • - Support is unresponsive; phone support unavailable.
Updated by user Jan 16, 2025

TC Helicon has not responded beyond what they previously sent that falsely "assumed" they answered each question correctly / thoroughly. The last question I sent them was simple and self-explanatory. Their refusal to respond speaks volumes.

Original review Jan 07, 2025

Tried unsuccessfully to get a simple answer about the Harmony Singer 2. Is it supposed to have true vocal bypass, or is the vocal slightly diminished when passing through the pedal.

The "Tribe" assumed the pedal to be faulty when I stated voice level diminished - and at one point voice level rose as true bypass. So I asked again what the norm is. No reply.

I won't buy nor encourage anyone to buy TC Helicon products that might require support of any kind. The fact that people aren't available by phone is ridiculous.

User's recommendation: Avoid TC Helicon products that require support

Original review Dec 15, 2023

Greetings, I am a VL3X user since 2016. I am a solo performer gigging internationally.

I live in constant fear of a VL3X breakdown. I have already repaired my unit twice (Bangkok & Bali), with excellent independent techs. I have tried to purchase a back-up but obviously, its not easy & when available, they're quite overpriced. Are there any plans to reissue or upgrade this excellent unit??

Please kindly advise. Best regards, Gilbert guruguitar@***.com
