i play on battery power....no one makes battery powered vocal processors, can i use a PX5D guitar processsor for vocals? just using the compression and reverbs, etc, turning the amp and cabinet simulators off?

you're probably better off posting in the Korg Guitar Effects and Tuners section. Why post here?

however, I don't see any reason why you couldn't use a guitar processor for vocals. You could also probably do just with the standard Boss effects pedals, which can all be powered by 9V battery. or even the mini-KP kaoss pads. I've tried it before, however I don't actually sing....
Obviously it matters what kind of mic you're using, because a condenser (capacitor) mic will need a preamp/phantom power, however most stage mics are 'dynamic' (magnetic driver based) mics
