I don't like the Yamaha harmony anyway so just add an external unit.
So why don't you like it be interested in your
reasoning on VH@ vs other units..?
Not to start a whole thing on this subject again, but from what I have heard in demos (and I have not used it myself-I had a 750) the Yamaha harmony is not as good as TC Helicon which is built-in to Korg units. That is just my opinion. In fact, I believe you have argued the very same thing before (TC helicon is better), if memory serves. EDIT: [Quote Donny] "the TRACKING is far Superior then anything Yamaha VH,VH2 has ever made." [end quote]
However, I will say that as a person currently playing at home only, the Yamaha harmony would probably be fine for my purposes. The point is, the 700 is a good deal and I agree with See on that.
EDIT: Here is a thread where Gary posted a comparison between TC Helicon Harmony-M and VH2. Almost everyone thought (without knowing which was which) the TC sounded better.
