Quick Start Guide

Voice Processor 2x Software

Installation

The Voice Processor 2x software provides real-time set-up 
and control from a Win dows PC environment.
Use one of the following procedures to install the Voice 
Processor 2x software on your computer.
From the CD-ROM:
1. Insert the CD into your computer’s CD-ROM drive.
2. Open “My Computer”. The “My Computer” icon is 

typically on your desktop or in the “Start” menu.

3. Double click on your CD-ROM drive. This is typically drive 

“D:\”. If your CD-ROM drive isn’t “D:\”, then substitute its 
drive letter. 

4. Double-click “Setup.exe”.

From the Symetrix web site (http://www.SymetrixAudio.com):

1. Download the Voice Processor 2x software installer from 

the Symetrix web site.

2. Double-click on the file you just downloaded and follow 

the on screen directions to install.

The software always starts up in offline mode. Regardless, 
you can explore the software, experiment to your heart’s 
content, and perhaps even get useful work done. You can 
save any device files that you create to your hard drive and 
transfer them to hardware later.
After installing the software, browse the rest of the Help File, 
or move on to the Connection Wizard to get connected to 
your 2x.

Launch the software

You can launch the Voice Processor 2x software via either 
the Start Menu or the Desktop icon. Once launched, the 
Voice Processor 2x software presents the following options:

You may choose to create a New File using the factory 
default settings.
If you choose to open an Existing File on Computer, a list 
of recently used files is presented. A Browse button is also 
available to manually locate the file of your choosing from a 
local drive or network share.
If you choose to open an Existing File on Device, a list of 
recently connected-to devices is presented. An “Open 
Connection Wizard” choice is also available in the event that 
you are unsure of which device to connect to or your device 
is not listed among the recently connected to devices.
After installing and launching the software and choosing your 
operating mode above, you may browse the rest of the Help 
File, or move on to the Connection Wizard to get connected 
to your 2x.

Connection Wizard

Once you have completed the Hardware Connections and 
connected your network (refer to Network Configuration), 
you may open the 2x Application and run the Connection 
Wizard.
The Connection Wizard can be run by clicking on its icon in 
the toolbar...
