3 MICROPHONE IN GAIN MICROPHONE IN GAIN 1 7 6 5 4 3 2 8 Quick Setup 1. Make sure all items listed on the front of this guide are in the Playmate Vocalist’s box. 2. Read the Important Safety Instructions. 3. Study the Hookup Diagram above. Refer to the next section for details on which cables to use. 4. Make sure all devices and instruments are turned off and all gain knobs set to zero. 5. Connect your microphone to either the XLR input or the 1/4” direct input located on the rear of the Playmate Vocalist. Note: The Playmate Vocalist does not provide phantom power. Do not attempt to use microphones that require external phantom power. 6. Connect your headphones to one of the PHONES jacks. You may connect two sets of headphones. 7. To output the signal to a PA amplifier, mixer or other equipment, connect the Playmate Vocalist’s Left and Right OUTPUT jacks to the inputs of the device using 1/4” TRS plugs. To connect to your stereo, you will need to buy 1/4”-to-RCA plug converters. 8. Turn on the Playmate Vocalist first, followed by the other equipment. Be sure to turn on any amplifiers last to avoid any sudden “pops” that could damage speakers. 9. When finished, turn off any external amplifiers first— before turning off or disconnecting the Playmate Vocalist—to prevent damage to external speakers. 10. Go to to register the Playmate Vocalist. Rear-Panel Features and Connection Details 1. POWER – Turns the unit on and off. Always use this button to turn off the unit before removing the power cord. 2. IEC Power Plug Connector – Plug in the power cord that came with the unit here. 3. Voltage Switch – Adjusts the voltage from 115V/60Hz (American) to 230V/50Hz (European). It’s important that this is set to the correct voltage; otherwise, you could damage the Playmate Vocalist. 4. MICROPHONE Input – an XLR input that accepts any microphone with an XLR plug. 5. DIRECT IN Input – a 1/4” instrument input. This input bypasses the Playmate Vocalist’s effects section and works well for adding your synthesizer or other instrument into the mix. 6. Gain Knob – controls the gain of the MICROPHONE input. Turn this knob up until you achieve a loud, clear sound. Turn it down if you experience distortion, feedback, clipping or excessive hiss. NOTE: The Gain knob only works with the MICROPHONE input; it does not affect the DIRECT IN input.

L and R OUTPUTS – 1/4” TRS stereo output for routing the left and right signals to a device such as a mixer or amplifier. Features of the Playmate Vocalist 1. Display – Shows the current track and effect program, CD time and various other settings. Refer to the “Features of the Display” section for details. 2. Play/Pause Button – Plays the CD. If you press this button while a CD is playing, it will be paused until you press Play/Pause again. 3. Stop Button – Stops a playing CD. 4. Skip Previous Button – Skips to the beginning of the current track, or skips to the previous track on the CD. 5. Skip Next Button – Skips to the beginning of the next song on the CD. 6. Scan Forward Button – Scans forward through the current song. Hold down this button to continue scanning. 7. Scan Back Button – Scans backward through the current song. Hold down this button to continue scanning. 8. PITCH Knob – Controls the tuning of the CD audio. When you turn this knob, both the pitch and the speed of the audio are affected. You may adjust the pitch by as much as plus or minus 8%. 9. SPEED Knob – Adjusts the speed, or tempo, of the CD audio without affecting its pitch. You may decrease the tempo by as much as 50% and increase it as much as 150%. 10. TRANSPOSE Knob – Changes the key of the CD audio in half-step intervals, a maximum of seven half-steps up or down, without affecting the speed of the audio. The TRANSPOSE knob does not affect the audio’s tuning either. For example, let’s say you tune the audio to 5% sharp using the PITCH knob. If you then transpose the audio up four half-steps, it will then be four half-steps plus 5% sharp. TIP: We recommend that you transpose a song to the appropriate key first, and then adjust the speed, followed by the pitch. That way you can tune the music to your voice or instrument first, adjust the tempo without affecting that tuning, and then make minor pitch adjustments if necessary. 11. VOLUME Knob – Controls the master output volume of the Vocalist Playmate. 12. BALANCE Knob – Controls the ratio of the volume of the inputted vocal (along with the selected effect) versus the volume of the CD audio. Turn this knob all the way to the right and the main outputs will contain 100% CD audio. Turn it all the way to the left and the outputs will contain 100% vocal. When the knob is in...
