Sing and play guitar at the same time? Perform-VG was drawn for you. It clamps to your mic stand, takes your voice and your acoustic guitar, and turns both into a finished, two-part performance with one footswitch.

Plug your guitar straight in — Perform-VG hears the chords you’re playing and sets the key for the harmonies automatically. No tap tempo, no MIDI foot controller, no asking the bass player to nudge you into the right semitone. The harmonies sit musically over the top of your vocal, change as the song changes, and stop the second you stop singing. Adaptive Tone handles EQ, compression, de-essing and gating in real time, so your voice sounds the way it should from the first verse to the last bow.

You also get an acoustic guitar voicing engine — body resonance, anti-feedback and a touch of compression — that takes the "piezo plugged into a PA" sound and turns it into a guitar in a room. Reverb, doubler, megaphone and HardTune sit one button away. XLR vocal out, 1/4-inch guitar out, USB streaming for home recording, and an aux in for backing tracks.

Acoustic singer-songwriters, worship leaders, café-circuit duo acts: Perform-VG is the pedal that lets you stop wishing you had a band. It travels light, sets up in under a minute, and means the soundperson doesn’t need to touch your channel once the gig starts.
