Rocktron Banshee 2 Talk Box

Rocktron Banshee 2 Talk Box...

Rocktron has brought an exciting new dimension to the talkbox with the
Banshee 2 by providing an effects loop which now lets you add other effects
into the talkbox signal path, or through your guitar signal path at the same
time! These new features allow you to get some wild new sounds never before done
with a talkbox! We've also added an active LED to tell you when the Banshee 2
effect is engaged.

The Banshee models provide easy setup (unlike vintage style talkboxes which are
cumbersome to hook up and can potentially damage your gear by blowing up your amp head).
What makes the Banshees so unique is the included internal preamp, amplifier,
and horn driver. Simply plug into the Banshee as you would any common stomp box,
and run the provided "tubing" up the mic stand and into your mouth. The rest is up to
your imagination as you get the most incredible sounds from your instrument (guitar or keyboard).

The Banshee's preamp section features controls for gain, tone, and output level.
A wide range of clean and dirty preamp tones may be dialed in with plenty of saturation
for those who desire lots of gain.

Guitar World Magazine wrote: "The Banshee's high-gain preamp and focused tone control
allow for excellent enunciation and sustain. With minimal practice, I was able to create
clear words and open vowels, and I could readily see how anyone could become addicted
to this effect."Not only does the Banshee scream in the talkbox mode, but Rocktron has
also included an extra jack for hookup with an extension pedal speaker. Plugging a
speaker cabinet to this output turns your pedal board into a perfect practice setup with
enough volume to do some pretty serious cranking!
