I have a vp7 and i don't like the hs5 mic but the vp7 works with any mic. It even has phantom power. However, I noticed the new tc helicon for keyboards has a setting called notes and it will do full harmonys dictated by midi notes played on keyboard but vp7 has 8 differant full choir settings. I still love mine but for small gigs I just use my pa900's tc helicon
