Alesis introduced the PlayMate Vocalist at NAMM, a vocal remover and microphone processor. With an internal stereo CD player, the PlayMate Vocalist is designed for vocal performance, music education, and karaoke applications.
The PlayMate Vocalist can remove vocals from virtually any stereo CD. It also performs tasks such as changing the music tempo without affecting the pitch, and changing the pitch without affecting the tempo. This allows a vocalist to always sing a song in the optimal key, and to adjust the tempo to change the feel of the music. Tempo and key adjustment can also be made for practice purposes. The PlayMate Vocalist can transpose music +/-7 semitones (or half-steps), and adjust the pitch 8%. The tempo range is from 50% to 150%.
The PlayMate Vocalist includes 100 reverb algorithms, allowing the singer to be heard in a variety of ambient spaces. A vocalist can easily match the ambiance of the music, or use reverb effects more creatively. The PlayMate Vocalist has one microphone input, two headphone outputs, and stereo balanced line outputs.
