Output parameter
Use the Output parameter to set how signals are
sent over the XLR outputs of Play Acoustic.
Vocal/Guitar (DI) setting
With the Vocal/Guitar (DI) setting, vocal (and Aux)
signals are sent over one XLR connector, and
guitar signals over the other.
Stereo setting
With the Stereo setting, a stereo mix of Vocal,
Guitar and Aux signals is sent over both XLR
outputs.
Mono setting
► All effected Vocal and Guitar sounds are sent
via the left XLR output.
► Dry vocals (with Tone and pitch correction, if
you have set the Pitch Cor Amt parameter on
the Input page to a value other than zero) are
sent via the right XLR output.
Vocal Cancel function
The Vocal Cancel function attempts to remove
the vocals from a piece of music.
Off setting
With the Off setting, no processing is performed
on the Aux input signal.
On setting
With the On setting, Play Acoustic will attempt to
remove lead vocals from a piece of music.
This process can create “Karaoke”-style music
for you to sing along to, including key information
for harmony generation.
The processing capability can vary quite a bit
from song to song, depending on the way the
song was originally mixed.
Lead Mute parameter
Use the Lead Mute parameter to mute the lead
vocal and only output the processed signals.
Off setting
Lead Vocals are routed to the main mix.
On setting
Lead vocals are removed from the main mix.
Headphone Lim parameter
There is a built-in headphone limiter to provide
protection from large volume increases, spikes,
dropped microphones, screaming fans etc. Use
the Headphone Lim parameter to set the maxi-
mum level of the headphone signal.
0 dB is the default, but you can set it lower if you
want more protection.
Ear damage can occur quickly at high volumes,
so be cautious when using headphones or in-ear
monitors!
