Take charge of your vocal sound with the VE-22, a portable multi-effects toolbox specially designed for singers. Perform with a diverse library of high-quality BOSS processing, from basic studio enhancement to dramatic voice-changing effects. Expand your range with real-time harmonies. And get creative with the free-flowing interface and versatile features for practice, recording, and online streaming. With the VE-22 in your chain, you’re primed and ready to deliver memorable, high-impact vocal performances everywhere you sing.

Outstanding BOSS Vocal Effects

The VE-22 is packed with the latest advancements in BOSS’s acclaimed Vocal Performer technology. Bolster your voice with core processing and make the sound come alive with immersive delays and reverbs. Then explore a universe of electronic colors and aggressive textures with auto pitch, distortion, lo-fi, modulation, and other cool voice transforming effects. There are 50 presets with ready-to-go sounds, plus 99 memories to store custom combinations for different songs and styles.

Harmonies That Impress

The VE-22’s powerful harmony and doubling functions make it simple to create head-turning ensemble effects from a single voice. Just select a type, set the song key, and start singing. It’s easy to change up the harmony voicing, adjust levels, and more with the panel knobs. You can also assign the harmonies to an onboard switch and bring them in and out as needed while performing.

Create in the Moment

The VE-22’s uncomplicated interface encourages you to get creative with your live vocal sound. The Harmony, Effect, and Echo sections feature multi-function knobs, letting you tweak top-level parameters, turn off a section with a click, or dive into deeper settings with a double click. And with the color display and lighted rings around the knobs, you always have a clear view of what’s happening. Three customizable switches are designed for control with your feet or hands, and you can connect an expression pedal or external footswitches for more control if needed.

Perform with Confidence

The VE-22 gives you everything you need to deliver top-quality sound to a house PA system, stage amplifier, or recorder. There’s an XLR input and integrated preamp for a professional stage microphone, plus phantom power for high-end condenser types. A high/low gain switch, rear-panel sensitivity knob, and level meter enable you to optimize the input signal for nearly any mic. Compressor, EQ, de-esser, and other studio essentials are also on hand, ready to support every performance with smooth, authoritative sound.

Express Yourself

With USB-C, an analog aux input, and a headphone jack, the VE-22 supports vocal activities from daily practice and recording to livestreaming on social media. Connect to a computer or mobile device and send mix-ready vocals directly to song production software and streaming apps. Or play backing music through the VE-22 and sing along with inspiring sound as you warm up for gigs, learn new songs, and perform.

Warranty FAQ

DO I NEED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY?

Most manufacturers limit their warranty periods to keep their product costs competitive. It should come as no surprise that most problems occur after the manufacturer’s warranty is over. If you are like most consumers, you don't want to deal with the inevitable problems surrounding repairs. Who do you call for service? Are they reliable? Is a handyman capable of performing a long lasting, reliable repair on your instrument?

Ranked #1 Extended Warranty

CPS provides top notch warranty protection for your purchases to ensure life and longevity. This means that they care about you and your product long after your purchase has been made. This warranty offers reliable, hassle-free, comprehensive parts and labor protection for your product.

You Need to Prepare for These Issues Today

Bananas is an Authorized Consumer Priority Service Dealer. This means that they care about you and your products long after the purchase date. You can easily extend your manufacturer's warranty for a possible total of 5 years from the date of purchase.

CPS Warranties Offer Reliable Protection for Your Product

By purchasing a CPS accidental damage plan, you’re guaranteed years of worry free operation from your new product.

Is a CPS Warranty just an extension of the existing manufacturer’s warranty?

Actually, it’s an upgrade to your existing manufacturer’s warranty. A CPS Warranty offers benefits that aren’t offered by manufacturers like accidental damage & free shipping to and from the repair facility.

What’s the difference between a Replacement Plan and Repair Plan?

A Replacement Plan is available for products under $150. If the product fails, you will receive a replacement through Bananas.

A Repair Plan is for products over $150 and offers free repair coverage for your product any time during the life of your warranty. If we can’t fix it, we’ll replace it!

How am I covered?

For the Replacement Plan, your coverage provides for a one-time replacement of the covered product.

For the Repair Plan, you are covered for a period of up to five years (depending on which plan you purchase). Benefits include parts and labor for required repairs on your product.

When does my warranty coverage start?

Coverage begins on the 31st calendar day from when you purchased your product.

Can I transfer the Protection Plan to a new owner?

Yes! CPS Warranties are transferable between owners.

What if I Need to Return my Product?

If you return your product, Bananas returns the money you paid for the product protection plan. Depending on how much time has passed since your purchase, CPS may issue a prorated refund.

Is my product covered if it’s stolen or if I lose it?

Unfortunately the CPS Warranty does not cover lost or stolen products.

Is there a service fee?

Zero dollar service fee for the Replacement Plans and the Repair Plans.
