Look what I found at my parents: a Digitech Talker!

[Blille]

I am visiting my parents with the fam this week and among a bunch of random music stuff from the 90s I found this pedal:

A Digitech Talker! I remember using it as a gimmick in a couple of songs and that was it. Anybody remember these?

Also, hello after a few months

Never heard of it! What does it actually do?

You plug in a mic and a guitar and it’s a vocoderish/talk box thing. It has different modes, from useful to crazy stuff.

Here’s a demo I found, check 0:45 onwards.

That’d be useful with recording

Woo hoo! Watched the demo. Fun times. Thank you for expanding my knowledge base (and maybe...my mind!)

I have seen those before. Was looking for a general use talk box (Aerosmith, Bon Jovi, etc) and came across them. Fun stuff!
