When pressed, the VoiceLive Play enters the SETUP menu, which is comprised of 6 pages and controls
the general functions of the device:
Mic Type – Selects the type of microphone .
There are 4 settings:
1. DYNAMIC MIC– for dynamic mics (like an SM-58 or OM5)
2. CONDENSER MIC – for condenser mics (like a Beta 87A)
3. MP-75 MIC - for use with our MP-75 microphone, which has an onboard switch to control
various functions of your VoiceLive Play, such as the HIT or LOOP functions .
*Mic Control defaults to HIT when MP-75 is selected .
4. USB – Digital audio can be passed to the VoiceLive Play via the USB port. You can select USB
Left or USB Right, allowing you to send vocals from a DAW, in mono, to the unit .
Room Sense – Controls the way the two onboard RoomSense microphones function.
There are 3 settings:
1. AMBIENT – RoomSense uses the onboard mics and passes that signal via the headphone out
put. Control for RoomSense level can be found in the MIX section. To avoid feedback, the
RoomSense output is only passed to the headphone output and not the XLR output .
*Try using the AMBIENT setting alongside a vocal mic to pick up an instrument, like an acoustic
guitar or piano, and mix it in with your vocals . You can also mix some of the AMBIENT signal
into an in-ear monitor mix to give you room sounds with your direct mic feeds .
2. AMBIENT/AUTO – In addition to the ability to output RoomSense sounds via the headphone
mix, the onboard RoomSense mics will also listen to musical information from the surrounding
environment (a single instrument or even your whole band will work!) to determine the KEY/
SCALE for harmony/hardtune .
3. VOICE – The RoomSense mics are used as the primary vocal input. This action is only available
via headphones .
