Step 2: Inputs
First, connect the XLR cable from your microphone to
the MIC input jack on VoiceLive 2.
Next, connect the instrument or device you will
use to control harmony.
On power-up, VoiceLive 2
will automatically configure all harmony presets to
recognize which instrument is connected
. Only one of
the following should be connected for this Quick Start.
o Guitar . Connect the 1/4” cable directly from your
guitar (no pedals between the guitar and VoiceLive
2) to the input jack labelled GUITAR IN. If you
want your guitar to go through pedals and an amp,
connect another 1/4” cable from the GUITAR
THRU to either your first effect pedal or your
amplifier.
o
MIDI keyboard.
Connect a MIDI cable to
VoiceLive 2’s MIDI IN from your keyboard’s MIDI
OUT. Set your keyboard’s MIDI OUT channel to
channel #1 if it is not already.
o MP3 player (AUX Input) . Connect the output of
an MP3 player or another music source to the
AUX input using a stereo 1/8” connector.
If you do not connect an instrument to the GUITAR IN,
MIDI IN or AUX input, most of the harmony presets in
VoiceLive 2 will default to global Scale mode in the Key
of A Major (for this, see the section entitled VoiceLive 2
for the Lead Singer)
