Talk box users, talk to me!

We do "Rocky Mountain Way" and "Show Me the Way" (Frampton) and I use my wah-wah pedal right now, thinking about getting a talk box.

 

I'm looking at the Rocktron Banshee.

 

Any advice from talkbox owners out there regarding different boxes, technique etc...

I have a real old one that works great, but it's bulky, heavy, and I hve to run 2 speaker cables from my amp to the tb and back. My understanding is that the newer Banshee tb's are easy to use/setup. I would look at one of those if I were you.
As far as using one goes, just play around with it. With a little practice, you'll sound like and expert. Don't forget that you need to have a vocal mic going to the PA.

Banshee. End of.


No faffing around with power amps etc.


Straight in the line of your effects chain.


Mic her up; bingo.

 

 

Cool, I'm leaning heavily towards the Banshee. Is the Banshee 2 worth the extra bucks... not sure if I'd use the features of the 2.

Couldn't comment; I've got the first edition and really can't complain.

 

However, having the talkbox feed your amp aswell as the talkbox effect would be mighty useful. When I used the first banshee in a single guitarist band setting I found that the effect could've done with beefing up with some amp soundage.

 

Depends what you need I guess...
