Yeah, I'm *fairly* certain that the extra instrument input is merely 
routed to the aux audio path, which is the same on both units (if 
not, I'm going to be mightily peeved, 'cause I could really use a 
second harmonizer input).  I'm pretty sure that it uses the secondary 
signal path, because I doubt that they're going to include a whole 
second harmonizer in the same unit.  And I tried merging two sources 
into the same harmony block at the input.  That confused the 
harmonizer tracking hella bad.

The aux input on the VoiceWorks passes the signal through the reverb 
and delay blocks, but it sums into the signal chain after the harmony 
processor.  It's nice for adding instrumentation into the same 
"space" as the vocals, and the reverb/delay is of the same quality 
you'd expect from TC Electronic.  Excellent!

>I bet they are both nice though!

Oh, absolutely.  Like I stated previously, I was originally looking 
to pick up the VoiceLive in the first place.  Then the VoiceWorks 
dropped into my lap at half the cost of the VoiceLive, so I couldn't 
pass that deal up.  If you get the VoiceLive, I'm sure you'll have 
lots of fun with it.  And, as I said, I'm sure it sounds great.  :)
