Using the Vocalist

Live 4
In addition to creating vocal harmonies, the Vocalist Live 4 also offers a wide variety of effects
you can apply to your voice. You can quickly change the harmonies and effects by changing
presets . Each preset has a name and a number, as well as a set of harmonies and/or other effects
assigned to it.
You can cycle through all the different presets by pressing the Up/Down Footswitches ,
located on the lower right side of the Vocalist Live 4.
You can turn a preset’s harmonies on or off with the
Harmony Footswitch
.
You can turn a preset’s effects on or off with the Effects Footswitch .
There are two kinds of presets: User and Factory . You can change User presets (numbers -
50), but you can’t change Factory presets (numbers 5-00). When the Vocalist Live 4 ships from
the factory, the User and Factory presets are identical
Use the Effects Matrix, Edit Up/Down buttons, and Parameter knobs to edit User presets.
