VPT-1 Vocal Pitch Trainer w/ Five-Line Musical Staff Display and Sound Back Function

Small, lightweight, and effective. Responds to keyboard or voice, but only one note at a time. Multiple sound sources will confuse it. Good for practicing vocal scales, or checking yourself for a difficult pitch. I caution over reliance on such devices, as you can focus so much on pitch that you lose the emotion you are trying to convey.

This is well worth the money.

I'm enjoying using this vocal pitch trainer. It is a great value for me. An ideal size ; portable; and easy to use.

I bought this item to work on my notes for choir, help with my sight reading of music, to see where I needed adjustment and to train my ears for the right sounding note. The Korg VPT-1 does a lot of things good, but it's not great. It could've been great with a little more effort on the part of the manufacturer. Pros: - It shows the note you are singing on the treble and bass scale. - It allows you to adjust your octave range, high/low. - It has a tone-back function when using headphones. - It has a tone generator to get the tone for specific note. - There is a flat, sharp and spot-on indicator leds to let you know where to adjust your pitch for the perfect note. - It allows three modes of note pitch sensitivity, easy/medium/hard - Sound output volume has three modes, low/medium/high Cons: - This device is cheap. It's made with thin plastic, cheap lcd display and is very light weight. The heaviest part on the device is the two AAA batteries which makes me wonder how long this will last. - As others have stated there is no backlight to the cheap lcd display. It is impossible to see in low light conditions. - The device is not fast enough to sing a melody, where notes change frequently. You have to maintain your note until the device figures out what note you are trying to sing and display the results on the screen, i.e., practice only, not to be used live or even during song rehearsals. - The tone generator is electronic output, so it sounds like a synthesizer when it gives you the tone. This device is for singers so having the option to hear a natural voice output or a recorded pitch pipe would've been much more useful. - No note up/down buttons to get to the note you want quickly. In order to go to a note higher than the one you are on, you have to keep pressing the note button and cycle down through the treble and bass clef notes, including all the sharps and flats, until you get to the note you want. I would have paid extra just to be able to switch note selection both up and down, not just down. - No metronome function that other devices of this type have included. All in all, the Korg VPT-1 is a unique device that has value in very limited practice situations. It does what it does in the cheapest way possible. If the cons were addressed, I could see every singer using this device, but I find it useful for practicing intonation while alone.

Cada cantante debe por lo menos tener uno de estos. Evalua la entonacion y es una guia para colocar sonidos en nuestra mente.

The feedback on pitch accuracy is crude. It works, but perhaps I should have lowered my expectations, given the cost.

I stumbled across the Korg VPT-1 while browsing for ways to improve my baritone/bass vocals for our local church group—and I’m glad I did. It’s simple to use, but incredibly helpful. You sing into it, and it gives instant feedback, helping you zero in on pitch accuracy and tone. I’ve made it part of my daily routine, and even as a casual singer, I can already hear the difference. It’s not flashy, but it works—and for anyone looking to build vocal confidence at home, this little device delivers in spades.

Arrived very promptly, good quality product as advertised.

Esta super con y sin audifonos, con el rango que maneja es más que sificiente, y me ha resultado útil para ver como ando en mi entonación

Delibvered on time and as expected

Unless you plan to sing sustained straight tones - with 0 vibrato 0 then purchase this. Otherwise save your money. It is useless.

Fonctionne très bien et avec précision lorsque vous essayez d'identifier des notes. Il est très bien fait et de bonne qualité.

Für Personen wie mich, die allein singen üben und noch nicht gut hören können, ob sie den ton treffen, sehr praktisch. Und um bei acapella songs auf Youtube die Tonhöhen der Sänger zu bestimmen. Das Gerät spinnt auch nicht rum oder teigt falsche Töne an oder so, es funktioniert echt! Nur erkennt es halt auch nicht alles ,zum Beispiel keine lip rolls. Aber das ist ja nicht tragisch.
