GLOBAL EDIT SCREENS
VoiceLive has EQ and dynamics processing optimized for vocals. This screen and the following
provide parameters for setting up the EQ and dynamics processing.
EDIT 1 knob: DYNAMIC PROCESSING ASSIGN
. This allows assigning of dynamic processing (com-
pressor and gate) to the lead voice, harmony voices, both lead and harmony voices
or neither. Hint: assigning only to the lead voice with a medium compressor setting
(threshold: -15dB, ratio:2:1) keeps the lead voice a consistent volume but keeps
harmony levels following the singers level. This gives control of harmony levels
with mic technique.
EDIT 2 knob: EQ A
SSIGN
. This allows assigning of the three band EQ to the lead voice
, harmony
voices, both lead and harmony voices or neither.
Compressor / Gate settings. The compressor in VoiceLive has auto makeup gain to a maximum of
+20dB. This means that the volume level of the signal will be increased for most volume levels of
input with the compressor enabled.

OMPRESSOR THRESHOLD LEVEL. Range: 0 to -60 dB.
EDIT 2 knob: COMPRESSION RATIO. Range: 1.1:1 to 64:1
