Talk Setting
This function is ideal for making announcements between your singing performances. When singing a song, several effects such
as reverb, delay and vocal harmony are usually assigned to the MIC Setup. When speaking to your audience, however, these
effects may sound disturbing or unnatural. Whenever the [TALK] button is turned on, Delay and Vocal Harmony effects turn off
and the amount of reverb lowers automatically. Talk settings can be customized as well, allowing you to add any desired effects
to your voice as you speak to your audience. Turning the [TALK] button off automatically recalls the MIC Setup for singing again.
