Page 7: Phantom Power
First Setup and Use 1. Turn down your PA’s master volume and set the desired input channel EQ to flat (EQ=off). 2. Connect your mic and PA as shown in the diagram first, then plug in the AC adaptor. For live performance, a USB connection to a computer is not required. 3. Set the Shape and Comp / De-ess controls to the center notch. Turn Warmth off if is isn’t already. 4. Sing into your mic while adjusting the MIC GAIN control so that the input level LED flashes green. Brief flashes of red on the LED on your loudest singing are ok. 5. Ensure that the effect is on (center LED is lit). 6. Sing while turning up your PA volume to a comfortable level. VoiceTone T1 will take a moment to adjust to the tone of your voice. It constantly adjusts as you sing. You will notice your voice is pleasantly brighter and smoother. Phantom Power There is no switch to enable phantom power on the VoiceTone singles. Phantom power is available when the product is powered. -
Page 8: Effect Descriptions
Effect Descriptions Shape - Controls multiple bands of EQ (equalization or tone). Adds brightness while removing bass frequencies that contribute to muddy sound in your specific voice. Turning the Shape control past the notch setting adds more brightness. Comp / De-ess - Combines these two pro dynamics effects in one control. Compression reduces vocal peaks that can be uncomfortable for listeners especially at loud PA volumes. VoiceTone T1 automatically gives you the right amount of gentle compression whether you’re singing right on the mic or further away. -

Read the news, click on tabs and browse the features of the application. - Page 10 Using the Mic Control Feature Mic Control allows you to turn effects on and off from the optional TC-Helicon MP-75 microphone. Push the MIC CONTROL switch in to allow remote on/off control on any or all pedals in a chain. When Mic Control is not desired, ensure the switch is out. Using multiple pedals requires the control signal pass through feature to be enabled on all but the last pedal. To enable or disable this feature, hold the effect footswitch and the switch on the mic for 3 seconds. Tips for Avoiding Feedback • Ensure your monitor and/or PA speakers don’t aim directly at the front of your mic • Sing close to the mic, even touching the grill with your lips •...
- Page 11 Can I use the product on an auxiliary send/return? Yes. You will need balanced XLR to TRS cables to do so. Ensure that the MIC GAIN knob is set to minimum to accept the line level signal from your mixer. Will I need a DI box to connect to a mixer? Why is the product turning the effect on and off by itself? This can happen when you have the MIC CONTROL knob pushed in and you are connected to a mixer with “pseudo balanced” outputs. Unless you are using only the specific TC-Helicon mic with the Mic Control feature, the MIC CONTROL knob should be out.
