TC-Helicon Voicelive 2 Basic Manual

last chord in a song without extensions. For example G
Major is a valid Key, Gm7b5 is not.
Hold the HARMONY footswitch to enter Key Set mode
then use the PRESET up and down footswitches to
enter the Key. The STEP footswitch will cycle through
the 3 Major and 3 Minor alternate scales that can be
chosen if your harmony intervals sound incorrect at
certain chord/melody combinations.
Note that the Key you set is global so you can try other
presets with your song without entering Key again.
If you’re lucky the first time, you’ll be rewarded with
soaring harmony over your whole chorus or song. If not,
you can try the following:
o Try a different Key, perhaps a 5th away from your
first choice.
o Choose a different Major or Minor alternate Scale.
o Choose a preset with only the 3rd (High) interval.
o Create a Step to change Key at the right moments.
o Move on to the next options listed.
Singing To Music Playback
VoiceLive 2 can derive musical information from fully
mixed music tracks. For this alternative you’ll need:
o Music source device. This could be an MP3 player,
computer, CD player etc.
o Recorded music without vocals. This could be your
latest CD tracks minus your vocals or Karaoke
tracks available on the web
Connect as described for MP3 Player (AUX input) in
the Quick Start section. When you power up VoiceLive
2, it will auto-recognize the AUX input as the harmony
music source. Choose a harmony preset and play your
music source. You should hear your music, voice and the
harmonies in your PA system or headphones.
Use the volume control on your music source device
to adjust the balance of music to vocals. You can also
adjust the AUX level in the SETUP menu, in the I/O tab.
