Talk/Tuner Mode
Before you get too far into playing your guitar
through VoiceLive 3, it’s a good idea to become
familiar with the Talk/Tuner mode.
The tuner offers a couple of neat features for
both guitar and vocals – so non-instrumentalists
might want to read this section, too.
To enter Talk/Tuner mode, press both the Preset
up and Preset down footswitches simultaneous-
ly for two seconds. Both footswitches will light
up in red, and the tuner will be displayed.
When you enter Talk/Tuner mode, the guitar will
be muted, so you can tune without your audi-
ence hearing it, and any vocal effects will re-
moved from the signal. The vocal effects are re-
moved so you can talk to your audience without
effects cluttering up what you are trying to say.
While in Talk/Tuner mode, you can still use the
Preset up and Preset down footswitches to
change Presets. This is especially handy if you
are tuning, changing guitars or addressing the
audience between songs and want to have the
next needed Preset loaded when you are fin-
ished.
Setting the Talk Trim parameter to OFF allows
you to also mute the microphone in TALK/TUN-
ER mode. For more information, see “Talk Trim
parameter”.
Exiting Talk/Tuner mode
To exit Talk/Tuner mode, simply press both
the Preset up and Down button simultaneously
again. When exiting, there is no need to hold for
two seconds. You can also press any of the ef-
fect footswitches to exit Talk/Tuner mode.
