It has effects like reverb, echo and chorus for the microphone inputs, plus a Voice Changer effect to change the pitch of the miked signal. The CD player has Slow Speed Audition, pitch shifting and seamless looping to assist in learning new songs. A headphone and line output are provided so the singers can record their performance to CD or computer, or for learning new songs at band practice.
