Editing the Vocal Layer
VL3X – Reference manual (updated 2015-07-16) 103
Transducer effect block / tab
The Transducer effect is often referred to as
“Megaphone” or “Distortion”, but it really cov-
ers any manipulation of gain structure and EQ
filters. Distortion and filter effects are common
across Rock, Pop, Country, Hip Hip, EDM and
other genres.
Transducer effect block parameters
The Transducer effect block has the following
parameters that allow you to adjust the effect:
► Transducer Style
► Routing
► Post Gain
► Hit Control
► Distortion Type
► Distortion Amount
► Low Cut
► High Cut
► Threshold
► Pres Gain
► Pres FC
► Pres Bandwidth
► Global
Tips and tricks for working
with the Transducer effect
► The first and most important tip is that any
distortion or EQ filter effect can be very prone
to feedback, so bear this in mind when con-
necting your VL3X to a 50,000 watt stadium
PA or the system at your local pub!
► Use of Gate within the Transducer advanced
edit parameters can reduce the chances of
feedback when the effect is active. Set the
threshold such that the gate “opens” to let
your voice through but closes (mutes) very
soon after you finish singing.
► This “Craig’s Corner” video covering feed-
back can help a lot for both general PA use
and Transducer effects:

► Changing the Buttonmap setting for the
footswitch assigned to the Transducer ef-
fect from Latched to Momentary allows you
to quickly add doses of the effect to specific
words or phrases in your song. Simply remap
one of the Vocal Layer footswitches to Trans-
ducer and change its Mode to Momentary –
see “Footswitch tab: Remapping footswitch-
es”.
