REAR PANEL
Balanced Inputs (1/4” TRS)
Line - You have the option of selecting this or
the mic input as the main Vocal input.
Instrument - This input is designed to accept
output from the following sources:
• Mixer
• Guitar pedal or preamp
• Active pickups (guitar with batteries)
• Acoustic guitar with preamp
• Keyboard output
Plugging an electric or acoustic guitar with
passive pickups directly into this input will
not result in optimal audio quality. (See
note on page 16.)
Balanced Outputs (1/4” TRS)
Left/Right - This is the stereo output of
VoiceLive. If mono operation is desired
use either of the outputs and set the
O
UTPUT parameter to Mono (edit screen
IO9). These outputs may be connected
directly to balanced mic inputs with proper
1/4”TRS to XLR out adapters as long as
there is no phantom power on the input. It
is also necessary to set the O
UTPUT R ANGE
to a lower setting (edit screen IO9) when
driving mic inputs. When there is phantom
power, direct boxes are necessary to
connect to mic inputs.
Digital I/O
S/PDIF In/Out - Sends and receives digital
audio to S/PDIF standards.

Mic Pass Thru
This connects directly to the microphone
input and is used to connect directly to a
mixing board. If VoiceLive loses power for
any reason, the signal from the
microphone will still get through to the
mixer. When using this connector and
microphones requiring phantom power,
you have the option of using the phantom
power from VoiceLive or the mixing
console. Please note that using both the
mixing console phantom power through
this connector and VoiceLive phantom
power will result in too much power to the
microphone.
Mic Input
Mic Connector - Balanced microphone input.
MIC LEVEL Knob - This controls the input gain
of the mic input.
-20dB - This attenuates the input by 20dB to
handle high output condenser
microphones (and the occasional really
loud singers with dynamic microphones).
MIC IN SELECT Button - This selects the
microphone for the Vocal input. When not
pressed, VoiceLive defaults to the Line
input.
LIMITER Button- This enables the VOS™
optical limiter on the mic input.
+48V - This enables +48 V phantom power on
the mic input. Never plug single ended
(unbalanced) microphones or instruments
or signal processors (balanced or
unbalanced) into the mic input if +48V
phantom power is on.
Note: Optimal connection to balanced equipment is achieved using balanced cables. However, if
your equipment is NOT balanced you will generally have no problems.
