Outputs
Depending on what kind of amplifi cation system you are using,
there are lots of options. We cover a few common setups on the following pages.
In the reference manual, we'll show many more connection options,
including incoming monitor mixes.
1. Vocals and guitar using guitar/headphone cable

VOICELIVE 3
This setup utilizes the included guitar/headphone cable, which is perfect for personal monitoring in any setup. You will see that the two smaller ends of the cable are
diff erent. One end has a male headphone jack beside the guitar jack. Connect these to the GUITAR IN and HEADPHONE jacks. The other end plugs into your guitar and
has a fe male jack for your headphones/in-ear monitors.
2. Stereo vocal and stereo guitar (2 channels)
OR
VOICELIVE 3
This is a very common setup for both live per formances with a stereo PA (double-check that the venue PA system is actually in stereo!) or for basic 2 channel recording.
