Plug in the external power supply and turn ACCESS on. Connect a microphone to
ACCESS via the front panel XLR jack.

Connect the stereo outputs of ACCESS to inputs on your mixer, intelligent keyboard or
anything with speakers at the end.

Press the Bypass button so it lights. While singing into your mic raise the input level
until the Signal LED is lighting orange with some quick peaks of red on your loudest
notes.

Take ACCESS out of Bypass. Use the knob closest to the LCD display to select a pre-
set.

Enjoy and listen. Keep in mind that presets that say “notes” in the LCD display require
a keyboard to produce harmonies. Hook one up if you’ve got it.

After you have got some sounds out of ACCESS and impressed your friends, go to your
favorite room, with your favorite chair and entertain yourself by reading this manual -
just think how impressed your high school english teacher would be.

Program List

Programs 1 through 10 are “Scale” programs

. Scale programs allow you to set the key and

scale at the beginning of a song and they will follow your vocal melody automatically from then
on. The factory programs have been set to E Major (programs 1-5) and E Minor (programs 6-10).
You can change the key and scale by pressing the edit button and turning the parameter knob.

Programs 11 through 20 are “Chord” programs. 

You will need a MIDI keyboard to control

the harmonies. Play the chords of a song on the keyboard while you sing and the harmonies will
change in order to stay musically in tune with you. 

Programs 21 through 25 are the “Notes” programs.

This is another MIDI keyboard-controlled

harmony mode. Whatever notes you play on the keyboard become the harmony notes when you
sing. This is useful for creating moving harmony lines while you sing one long note for example.

Programs 26 through 41 are Scale mode templates

for you to build your own programs upon.

They have been preset to the keys of G, A, D and C with the four Major and Minor scales. 

Programs 42 through 46 are the doubling and effects programs

Programs 47 through 50 are the ROM (Read Only Memory) programs.

It is not possible to

overwrite these programs. These are included to ensure that there is at least one program of each
harmony mode type in case all others are overwritten.

VOCALIST VR

Plug in the external power supply and turn VOCALIST VR on. Connect a microphone
to VOCALIST VR via the front panel XLR jack.

board oranything with speakers at the end.

notes.

Take VOCALIST VR out of Bypass. Use the knob closest to the LCD display to select a
preset.

Enjoy and listen. Keep in mind that presets that say “notes” in the LCD display require
a keyboard to produce harmonies. Hook one up if you’ve got it.

After you have got some sounds out of VOCALIST VR and impressed your friends, go
