TC-Helicon Voicelive 2 User Manual

Overview
Using the Rhythmic features, tap tempo can control
effects on the lead voice, harmonies and doubling voices
in time with your music. The RHYTHMIC menu is
organized into three main collections of rows:
The first two rows in this menu control the waveform
modulation type effects aka Rhythmic Stutter and
Rhythmic Gender.
The next two rows control short duration sample
looping effects known as Rhythmic Sample.
The last row offers a fun, tap tempo synchronized
cowbell sound and a useful pattern audition feature.
Using the Rhythmic features
1. Select a Rhythmic-based preset. There are example
Rhythm presets available via download within the
VoiceSupport application if you can’t find any in the
factory presets.
2. Set a tempo you want by holding the DELAY
button for a moment then tapping 1/4 notes on
the DELAY button in your tempo.
3. Sing a sustained note or a legato melody.
4. Press the SHORTCUT button while continuing to
sing to enable the Rhythmic feature when required.
Some presets may have Rhythmic enabled.
Note 1: You can re-synchronize the beat of the
Rhythmic effect or restart the pattern each time you
press the SHORTCUT switch setting to ON. However,
this does not apply to SAMPLE and SAMPLE MOMENT
assignments.
Note 2: When SAMPLE or SAMPLE MOMENT are
assigned to the SHORTCUT, the footswitch should be
pressed while you are singing to feed into the loop.
