INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on purchasing the Voco-Loco!  This is one 
of the most unique devices ever made and will surely bring 
a lot of fun, excitement and creativity to your performance 
and likely change the way you approach your voice or 
instrument from here on.  

If you are a vocalist you may have never used guitar effect 
pedals, so this will be new to you. If, on the other hand you 
are a guitarist who also sings, this may be old hat. Either 
way, please take a few minutes to read through this short 
manual as it will surely bring some insight on how to best 
approach using the Voco-Loco so that you get the most 
out of it. 

If after you have read it you still have some questions, 
please take a minute to visit the Voco-Loco FAQ page 
on the Radial web site. This is where we post the latest 
updates and questions from users. If you still have a 
question that is unanswered, feel free to send us an email 
at [email protected] and we will do our best to answer 
you in short order.

excitement and folly to your performance.
