It’s unlikely that you will have absolutely every-
thing seen here hooked up to VL3X – but this
diagram can serve as a general connection di-
agram that you can use to configure your per-
sonal setup.
The setup shows:
1. Microphone
2. Guitar
3. Music Player
4. Incoming Monitor (or cue) mix from the
Front Of House mixer
5. Monitor THRU to another monitor
6. Headphone out (possibly using the head-
phone/guitar cable and In Ear Monitor’s)
7. XLR Outputs carry stereo vocals to the PA.
8. Guitar Outputs carry stereo guitar sounds
to amps
9. Switch-3 and an Expression pedal for extra
controls
10. MIDI IN for NaturalPlay chord information
from a keyboard (NaturalPlay will “listen” to
Guitar/Keyboard over the AUX input and will
automatically switch between Guitar/Key-
board if they are both plugged in)
11. MIDI OUT to control a DAW, perhaps with
backing tracks and/or show control soft-
ware
Loop and Metronome sounds generated by
VL3X are not shown, but any Vocal Loops will be
sent out via the XLR outputs and Guitar loops
will be sent out via the Guitar outputs.
The Metronome can be heard in the XLR Main
Mix and headphone mix or just the headphone
mix, depending on your mix settings.
