6.Press the [k] field several times until the following page is displayed:

7.Set the [Volume] slider to “0”, and press the [ON/ OFF] field below this slider to select “OFF” (if neces- sary).

Let us now set the input sensitivity of the VariPhrase [INPUT] socket.

8.Sing into the microphone and gradually increase the VariPhrase [LEVEL] setting (rear panel).

Set it so that the INPUT OVER indicator in the Vari- Phrase section does not light even when you sing at the top of your voice.

This indicator should not light.

Note: At this point, you won’t hear your voice because the Audio In part is off.

9.Locate the microphone in such a way that it cannot pick up the signal from the external speakers. Failure to do so will result in a nasty howling tone also known as feedback. This should be avoided at all costs.

10.Press the [OFF] field below the [Volume] slider to make it read [ON].

11.Set the VA-76’s [VOLUME] knob to a comfortable listening level (about halfway for the time being).

12.Gradually increase the setting of the on-screen [Volume] slider while singing or talking into the microphone.

You should now be able to hear your voice.

13.You can also add Reverb and Chorus to your voice:

Press the [ON/OFF] field between the [Chorus] and [Reverb] sliders to make it read “ON”. This field can also be used for muting the effects when you need to make an announcement and don’t want it to sound like you are in a church, etc.

Note: This function can also be controlled via the assignable footswitch (see page 192).

Use the [Chorus] and [Reverb] sliders for setting the desired Chorus/Reverb depth. See page 124 for details about these effects.

14.To quickly switch on/off the Audio In part, press the [ON] (or [OFF]) field below the on-screen [Volume] slider.

Note: While the above on-screen settings can be written into a User Program, the settings of the [GAIN] switch and [LEVEL] knob on the rear panel cannot. You may want to write them down for future reference.

15.Now try singing and playing together. If your voice is too soft, increase the setting of the [Volume] slider in the display.

16.Press [EXIT] to return to the Master page.
