System Maintenance/Factory Reset
You can boot VoiceLive 3 in a special System
Maintenance that will allow you to perform sev-
eral system maintenance functions, including a
factory reset.
Entering System Maintenance Mode
► Turn off your VoiceLive 3.
► Unplug headphones (if attached)
► Using a toothpick or a small wire (we recom-
mend a straightened paper clip), press the
button that is inside the Headphone jack. The
button is small and at the very end of the in-
side of the jack. You don’t need to use much
force – so please be gentle. You will feel a
small click when the button presses.
► With the button held down, press the power
switch on your VoiceLive 3.
► Wait until you see the System Maintenance
Screen.
You should see the System Maintenance
screen immediately. If you see the “nor-
mal” VoiceLive 3 screen (without the “System
Maintenance” banner on top), you haven’t
pushed the button inside the headphone jack
correctly. Try again.
► Choose the desired option from the menu us-
ing the Control Knob.
Updating the firmware
using a USB flash drive
If you cannot update the firmware of your
VoiceLive 3 using VoiceSupport software, you
can perform a firmware update with a USB flash
drive.
► Format the USB flash drive to the FAT32 file
system (see the manual of your computer/op-
erating system for instructions).
Reformatting a USB flash drive will erase all
data on it.
► Copy the “.syx” file containing the firmware
update to the USB flash drive.
► Insert the USB flash drive into the USB host
port on your VoiceLive 3.
► Boot your VoiceLive 3 in System Maintenance
as described in “Entering System Mainte-
nance Mode”.
► Select the “Update from USB drive” option.
