Remapping a footswitch
Since you have just seen the Buttonmap page,
this is a good time to remap a footswitch to a
different effect.
Since there are 11 vocal effects and 9 guitar
effects in VoiceLive 3, but only 6 footswitch-
es, the ability to assign new functions to these
footswitches gives you a lot of flexibility.
Let’s remap µMod to HardTune. Later, you can
remap any footswitch as you wish, for this exam-
ple, please follow along.
► Press the Vocal button.
► Navigate to the Buttonmap tab using the <
and > buttons.
► Use the Control Knob to highlight the line
starting with “µMod”. It’s at the top of the
page.
As you can see, the µMod is assigned to the
µMod effect.
► Use the far left Mix Knob to remap the µMod
footswitch to HardTune.
Remapping the µMod footswitch to HardTune
► Press Home.
If you look at the top left corner of the screen,
you should see HardTune there, µMod will be
gone.

When you press the µMod footswitch, you will
see that HardTune is now controlled by that but-
ton.
Remapping can be performed for any effect in
VoiceLive 3. Vocal and Guitar effects are not re-
stricted to their “home layers”. This means that
you can remap a vocal effect to the guitar
Layer – and vice versa.
Since the Buttonmap page is available in each
Preset, for both vocal and guitar layers, you can
create a custom button mapping for every Preset
in VoiceLive 3.
Here are some Buttonmap examples:
► Remap a Guitar effect to Shift, so you have
easy access to the Octaver effect.

► Change a Vocal effect to Synth, so you can
use the Talkbox effect.

► Move Guitar HIT from the Guitar Layer to the
Vocal Layer, so you can change multiple gui-
tar sounds/effects without leaving the Vocal
