Boss VE-8 Acoustic Singer
SKU: VE-8The BOSS VE-8 Acoustic Singer is an all-in-one vocal and acoustic guitar processor built for the performing singer-songwriter. It combines studio-quality vocal effects, intelligent harmony generation, and acoustic guitar processing into a compact, pedalboard-friendly format. The VE-8 analyzes your guitar chords in real time to produce natural-sounding harmonies, while its Acoustic Resonance technology restores the rich, full tone of your instrument through a PA system. Vocals benefit from pitch correction, doubling, ambience effects, and an Enhance function for added clarity and presence. A built-in looper with 80 seconds of recording time lets you layer guitar and vocal parts independently for dynamic solo performances. With 50 onboard memory slots, balanced XLR outputs, USB connectivity for direct recording, and battery-powered operation, the VE-8 delivers professional sound whether you're playing a coffeehouse stage or tracking in the studio.
