To give you clear and concise representations of
what goes where, we have provided several con-
nection diagrams in the “Making connections”
(page 7) section. There are a few things we
would like you to keep in mind as you follow
these diagrams:
– Signal sources that go into your VoiceLive3
Extreme (e.g. microphone or guitar) will al-
ways be shown to the left of the back panel
image (1).
– “Downstream” devices (mixers, speakers)
will always be shown to the right of the back
panel image (2).
– The box in the lower left corner shows what
signals you will hear from the VoiceLive3 Ex-
treme headphone output.
– The box in the lower right corner shows what
you will hear from your mixer / PA speakers.
This could be anything from a “stick system”
or a portable/all-in-one loudspeaker system
to powered studio monitors or even a DAW
recording interface.
In many cases, what you hear from the Voice-
Live3 Extreme headphone output and your PA
will be the same (5) – but it can also be different.
Please note that we do not account for other in-
puts or instruments in these diagrams – so you
won’t see pictures of drums (4) etc. When a set-
up example includes a connection to your guitar
amp, we do not show that amp being miked and
sent through the PA (which often is the case) –
we are just showing you how to connect Voice-
Live3 Extreme in a particular setup. This means
the “what you hear” section in the lower right
corner does not show guitar sounds coming
from the PA – even though they might at a gig.
