You showed up to sing. Set-up shouldn’t fight you for the first ten minutes. Perform-V clamps to your mic stand, lights up with everything that makes a vocal sound finished, and stays out of your eyeline the whole night.

Two-part harmonies follow the song you’re actually playing — feed it your guitar, your phone or a backing track, set the key, and the harmonies move with you bar by bar. Adaptive Tone listens to your voice and your microphone, then automatically sweeps EQ, compression, de-essing and gating so your voice sits the same way through the first verse and the third encore. Studio-quality reverb, a smooth doubler, megaphone and HardTune effects all sit one button away — no menu diving, no "hang on, let me find the patch."

The connections are exactly the ones you’d hope for. XLR in with phantom power for your favourite condenser, single XLR out to the house, USB to your computer for when you want to turn the gig into a recording session. A 1/8-inch aux input lets you sing along to anything that plays back from a phone or laptop, and a headphone output keeps your monitor mix private when you’re practising at home.

Footprint is small, the mic-stand mount keeps it within reach, and the controls were drawn for a working singer — three big knobs, three big buttons, no app required. Solo singer-songwriters, worship leaders, duo acts, anyone who has ever pressed the wrong button mid-chorus: Perform-V is the vocal processor designed around the way you actually perform.
