I think these are the best set of device tutorials I have ever encountered on TH-cam! I am very appreciative of how you don't waste time with intro music or graphics, or blabbing about yourself but, rather, you clearly label the topic of the tutorial and then launch right into the content. Many, many thanks and, please, more of these when you have the time!
Mine is stil basically a paperweight & every session ends in frustration, BUT - I STILL agree - Bishop's tutorial's at least give me hope that it's worth continuing to at least TRY to learn this incredibly complex gadget. He gets right to it!.

I am so appreciative of your tutorial videos! The VL3X is a powerful, complex piece of equipment and you've really done a great job of giving me the step by step instructions. The onscreen graphics and circle highlights are a big help as well. Please keep em' coming!
Your tutorials are so clear and concise, and cutting to the points! I have just ordered a VL3X and while being all excited, I am a bit worried about its complexity and the steep learning curve ahead. Having just watched all your tutorials done so far has helped ease my mind a lot! Please keep making more tutorials! Thankyou so much!
Kwan Chan Thank you so much for your kind comment I’ve been traveling out of the country for the last month and get back next week and I plan to post a lot more. I hope you find them useful :)
I really appreciate this review series! I have the VL2 and am thinking of upgrading my gear so I was looking through reviews and tutorials just to see how they're different. Thank you again!
Thank God I subscribed to your channel, 60 days ago I made the purchase of the 3 extreme voicelive and while I waited I only subscribed to not lose your tutorials and now I am enjoying my vl3x very happy for your help, greetings from santa cruz bolivia.
@@malditoklee Hello dear friend, I am very sorry to bother you but I need help. It happens that I was using my unit live and for some reason that I don't understand the screen turned white and now it only turns on but it doesn't work. Could you please help me, what can I do? I'm sorry for bothering you but th-helicon's customer service doesn't respond to me until today.
@@vicorochavidal535 Unfortunately, this seems to be a common issue and many have posted about it and have experienced it . Here's a good video overviewing how to fix it: th-cam.com/video/nTGi8lllPAo/w-d-xo.html. All the best! oh and this one too: th-cam.com/video/h3urhE9YmrA/w-d-xo.html
@@malditoklee you are my hero, I followed the steps and it worked. thank you very much for your help. I live in a small town in Bolivia that is in South America, I have to travel 4 hours to go to the nearest city and since I saw a video of the voicelive 3 I dreamed and worked hard to raise money to buy it, it took 2 years to collect the Money, imagine my face when the white screen appeared and I without a decent internet connection. Today, May 30, I was able to go to the city and the first thing I did was to see if I received any kind of help, I saw your answer and saw the links and luckily it occurred to me to bring the voicelive in case someone here could fix it. I've fixed it myself and only spent about $ 3 in one set of torx screwdrivers Thank you very much for your help I would never have done it myself. thanks and regards dear friend
@@malditoklee for this reason I purchased a backup unit. I am now trying to reload unit 2 with the wave files from unit one but to date...no luck. I have backed up the individual waves from the unit so that it creates a "packet" of data including sysex and wav I assume. I want to blanket restore from a voice support file but I think that only holds the sysex and the waves are in the aforementioned. Still, there has to be a way to put those packets into the new unit. Any idea how? Jesse.deese@gmail.com
Please Please Please make more tutorials! As a former educator and administrator ---I can tell that you have an intuitive understanding of instructional design and learning theory ---OR ---maybe it's not intuitive but learned ----in any case you are VERY GOOD. You and I use the same tools ---hoping (fingers crossed) I see more tutorials about any aspect of VLZ3 OR anything Logic Pro X ......so many of the tutorials on TH-cam are polluted with way to much talking, don't begin with the end in mind, or are pure advertising drivel for a company or self promotion ....YOU GET IT!
Retail Business Thank you for your incredibly kind comments. I did slightly abandon these videos simply do to work, touring and my performance schedule. But I need to admit after reading your comment, you left me quite motivated to make more. Is there any particular subject you would like covered next?
Wow! The clear, concise explanation of the use, programming, and options are terrific! I was hoping there were 50 videos from you in the series, so that my silver VoiceLive 3 could finally be put to good use. I was so intimidated by my VL3 that I bought a DigiTech Vocalist, and it was just a simpler, basic right-out-of-the-box useable unit. It died after a few years, and now my new/barely touched VL3 comes back into play. And it is awesome, but complex. Thank you very much for making these videos, I've watched 'em all a few times, and pray for more soon. I know it's been a while, but perhaps you could re-visit the subject...? Warm regards, and best wishes to you. Carl in Yuba City, CA, USA
Wow!! Been struggling with this awesome piece of technology and your series has been extremely useful. I would love to see a tutorial on Vocals, using harmonies etc and another tutorial on connecting this piece of equipment to a PC to record using a DAW. I thank you Bishop for your great work and will wait for more on this fabulous item. THANK YOU
Brilliant thanks mate. I'm not a tech minded person but you were able to put this in a way that I understood. Thanks. I hope you do more of these tutorials for the Ex3 cheers
Please do more of these, they are so helpful. Your tutorials are so much clearer and provide much more concise and useful explanation than the manual. I know I'm almost two years late to this but if you're still able, it would be awesome.
Thanks a lot for these helpful tutorials! Earned a sub buddy! I predict about 20 more tutorials about the VL3X until we know almost everything about it. :D Keep 'em coming :D
Raphi Z definitely we just started scratching the service. There a lot of advanced features and use cases I haven’t even started to cover yet. We’ll be Getting there soon though.
Really looking forward to learning all those things! By the way you're doing a great job in explaining the different features. Your voice is clear and smooth and not too fast! Easy to follow, good job!
The internal audio file format of VL3X for Backing Tracks is 16 bit resolution and 48 kHz sampling rate. If you convert your audio files to this format directly from the signal source (e.g. your DAW), you can save up to 60% of the import time. (Page No. 75 of EN manual for VL3X)
clear n' thorough....dopalicious .....i just got mine out o' storage and have been messin' with it n' knew that it had this functionality, but until seeing it here now i had no idea how to access it....just took a guitar vox processor and made an entertainment unit out of it.....like i said ..doplacity....
yes i just bought a Headrush looper,just put the usb pen into usb or a sd card,it works srate away much quicker,i loved my voicelive when it was working, and you can use looper when playing backing tracks,
Whaauw, great tutorial!... thanks for making this!... I ordered one and still am waiting for delivery. One question: how many tracks can be imported on the VL3X ?... and do the wav files not take relatively a lot of memory?....
Terrific videos. Interestingly, I use the record and overdub of effects on to the backing tracks function the most. When I play live everything is automated. I control start and stop etc with the Switch 6.
Great work! I've had one of these for a few years and you showed me a few good tricks. Also, some good refresher stuff on the things I don't use often, but plan to start now. Hope to see some more.
Super series, sir! If you can possibly answer this question for me. I recorded all my tracks (for a Duo that has a full band sound) in Studio One 3. I have a Cymatic LP-16 mono track playback for separate tracks to FOH. It can play midi files back to automate. Thus I can edit it in Studio One. Are the automation recordings editable in the VL3X? If I miss the timing on presses, can I move it in the track, or must I re-record? I'm trying to gauge whether I should use midi automation or do it via the VL3X. Thanks much for your time, Shep
Hi; at about 5:00 you mentioned you will cover VL3_Recordings in a later video. I would like to see that please. Did you make a VL3 Recordings tutorial? Thanks; David.
Thank you for these videos, they are brilliant. Sorry if you have already answered this - but do you (or any other viewers) know if you can use loops (or backing tracks, for that matter), as "one-shot" sample players? (If I want to hit the button and have it play a whole stab or chord, but not loop??) I can't find an answer for this anywhere - Thanks in advance!
Great and Helpful Video Thanks !!!!! Can you help me : is possible to use the metronome with the Backing Tracks ? Or there is another way to get a click for the backing tracks only in the headphone for live gig ? thanks in advance for the Answer !!!!
Hey. Thx for your great tutorial. Is it possible to use a BT and a BT with a click. Just like the SPD one does. I want to sebd the click track in my inears and the BT in the FOH. Thx
Which output do you use for backing tracks for FOH. How do you route them to monitors. Continue the great work. Thanks for these clear video tutorials.
Hi Bishop. Thanks for the tutorials. Do you have any video to show how to delete backing tracks that I am not using any more and get rid of it from VL3 to make room for more tracks to load ??? I do not see any option to do this once you load BT
Nice video! Is there a smooth way to have one preset per backing tracking and easily switch between those and also cotrolling start/stop on the backing track ? :)
can you please tell me how can we delete the imported backing track from the device..? but thanks for your effort to spend time for the video creation...
Hi, thank you for your good tuto. I have a question for you. I would like to know how erasing a backing track update in the machine. What is the capacity of the inside memory ? Actually, I can't erase any tracks imported inside the voicelive EXTREME. Thanks you Mr Bishop
From what I can see, you can import audio and record on the pedal, and you can record when the voice or guitar effects come in so that it does it automatically, but could those adjustments be made on the fly while the accompaniment is playing? Regards, and thank you very much
Thanks so much for an easily understandable video! I am wanting to try the VLX3 for live gigs as I use my own tracks to play along with- I play all the parts and can only do vocals/guitar onstage. What is your opinion of the BT playback? I have BTs already in the format needed. My laptop/audio interface/ FX pedals work well but are a pain to set up/break down time-wise, so to have everything in one would be fantastic..ONLY if it is the same audio quality. Hoping for help.....
Hi Again. I’m just about to buy a VL 3 Extreme. I would like to know how you route the backing track to outputs so that the audio click track from my backing track goes to monitor/headphones , and the music from the backing track goes to the mixer or FOH. Is it possible ?. It’s important especially for an intro count. All this along with separate guitar and voice outputs. Still possible ? Good wishes and many thanks for your great tutorials.
Hey mate great video, question..How do you configure the backing track to only come out of the guitar out rather than the main L/R out so that it can be mixed separately?
Thank you for the time, effort and knowledge you put into producing these tutorials. Is it possible to record automation in a backing track with TWO different types of harmonies? ABBA for example, the two girls in the verses and then all four voices in the chorus.
Okay...first, fantastic tutorials. They have helped me immensely. I have a couple of questions that I cannot find answers to: 1. Let's say something happens to my VLX3. Stolen, broken etc. Obviously we spend countless hours setting up patches, tones and tracks. Is there a way to do a "backup" of everything that's currently configured on it? The other question is capacity. I'm only up to around 50 backing tracks. How many will it hold? I think I've found that it's 16gb of storage. I've been importing .mp3 tracks with an average of 3mb file size. As you say, it converts them to wav so I'm not sure how that equates to space but I know the wav files are bigger. Sorry for the questions, but you seem to have more knowledge than most! Thank you for that. If you have a paypal, I'd be happy to make a donation.
Thanks for the great Tutorial! The only thing is the Track Import will not show up in my VL3x :( I made sure to format my flashdrive as FAT32, added the audio track respecting the right format (WAV 24 Bits / 4800) but no success. No Track Import neither Backing Track tabs (in Looper menu) Also, I tried updating VL3x firmware, but Track Import tab still will not come after attaching the flashdrive into my device. * After adding the thumbdrive to my PC, I can see VL3X created the Loop folder in the drive, but for some reason it does not read the track from the drive. Any ideas on what could be happening?
great tutorial. Just got mine and want to know if there is a way to use the click alongside backing tracks or is there a way to split backing tracks and have click on one side and track on other? Thanks
Franco Rhodes Cruz Bueno hola!!! Por supuesto es un placer! Empezemos por contar en que contexto uso yo la VL3X. Yo soy vocalista y guitarra ritmica (acustica/electrica en un grupo de Rockpopindie. En el pasado tenia varios pedales en mi pedalboard pero desde que me llego la VL3x he resumido todo a ella y los 2 pedales Strymon ( timeLine y Bigsky ) e incluso estoy sopesando y evaluando la calidad del Drive que no me esta convenciendo de la VL3x prescindiendo de un overdrive bueno. Hasta el momento me encuentro estudiandola y cada dia descubro posibilidades nuevas con ella pero claro esta que solo llevo con ella menos de un mes... Yo uso la opcion back in track para poder disparar algunas teclas en los ensayos con vistas de hacerlo en futuras actuaciones pero tenia el impedimento de que esa opción no te deja incorporarle el metronomo ( claqueta ) para que por lo menos el bateria la pueda escuchar por cascos. Pues al fin un usuario dejo una solicion por una pagina y encontre la manera de añadirle esa claketa. En conclusion es un aparato que merece la pena pues si te gusta que tu voz este procesada y añoras coros y delays “ que tu puedas preprogramar en partes de las canciones sin tener que preocuparte de pisotear los pedales... es genial. Pero ojo enfocala siempre a la voz, los efectos de guitarra no pueden competir con un Timeline o un bigsky etc. Saludos y Salud!!
Hello, this is my last resort any help greatly appreciated. This is regarding my Voicelive 3 extreme. I see in the main mix screen I can control the guitar volume, the backing track volume even the xlr volume but not the mic volume? I can't see a separate mic volume in any of the mix screens?? I am using a stereo output mode because I have stereo effects on my backing tracks. I just want an easy way to adjust the elements of my performance (mic, guitar , backing track). The only solution I can think of at the moment is turning the backing track up or down to mix with the vocal but then my guitar levels are all out because I have set those to the backing track!! There must be an easy way I am missing here? Please help. Jason
Hello, on minute 10:40 you mention that you can have preset for "backing tracks" and launch all your bt's from that preset. I tried to do that, but the automation seems to work only for a backing track, It seems that the automation won't save per-track basis. I'm I doing something wrong? Should the device record independent automation per track even if I load them on the fly with the method mentioned? Thanks in advance.
Please help! How do I connect the VL3X to my drummers ears for live band situation to stay in synch woth automation? And how can he have a click track running without it comming out through the P.A? Please help!
Hi Bishop, Have you come across anything that does what the vl3x does but that can also send midi to control other devices. The vl3x only receives midi
Hi Bishop, Any thoughts on getting a click track synced with a backing track? Could you record the track in your DAW with the click track panned to one side say to the right and then put the VL3X in stereo mode and isolate that for the drummer?
Can I use backing tracks as 'steps" for a preset, so Song1 preset will have 2 backing tracks, Step1 will have the verse backing track, and Step2 will have the chorus backing track? Then I can just flip between verse and chorus backing tracks by using the Step switch?
I think these are the best set of device tutorials I have ever encountered on TH-cam! I am very appreciative of how you don't waste time with intro music or graphics, or blabbing about yourself but, rather, you clearly label the topic of the tutorial and then launch right into the content. Many, many thanks and, please, more of these when you have the time!

What is your opinion of the BT playback? I have BTs already in the format needed. My laptop/audio interface/ FX pedals work well but are a pain to set up/break down time-wise, so to have everything in one would be fantastic..ONLY if it is the same audio quality. Hoping for help.....
Extremely :) useful - thank you.
thank you, it was very nice. we want mooore tutorial of vl3x :)
Hi Again. I’m just about to buy a VL 3 Extreme. I would like to know how you route the backing track to outputs so that the audio click track from my backing track goes to monitor/headphones , and the music from the backing track goes to the mixer or FOH. Is it possible ?. It’s important especially for an intro count. All this along with separate guitar and voice outputs. Still possible ? Good wishes and many thanks for your great tutorials.
Yes, please let us know if you have found how to do this! Amazing videos!
Amazing tutorials. Please do more!!!
very goooooood)
Hey mate great video, question..How do you configure the backing track to only come out of the guitar out rather than the main L/R out so that it can be mixed separately?
Thank you for the time, effort and knowledge you put into producing these tutorials. Is it possible to record automation in a backing track with TWO different types of harmonies? ABBA for example, the two girls in the verses and then all four voices in the chorus.
Yes, you cab do that by recording a sequence with 2 or more steps :-)
You forgot to mention to double click the large control button on VSL3X
Hi Bishop Can you split the backing track so you get the left side (click) to the drummer and right side to front of house?
Okay...first, fantastic tutorials. They have helped me immensely. I have a couple of questions that I cannot find answers to: 1. Let's say something happens to my VLX3. Stolen, broken etc. Obviously we spend countless hours setting up patches, tones and tracks. Is there a way to do a "backup" of everything that's currently configured on it? The other question is capacity. I'm only up to around 50 backing tracks. How many will it hold? I think I've found that it's 16gb of storage. I've been importing .mp3 tracks with an average of 3mb file size. As you say, it converts them to wav so I'm not sure how that equates to space but I know the wav files are bigger. Sorry for the questions, but you seem to have more knowledge than most! Thank you for that. If you have a paypal, I'd be happy to make a donation.
Thanks for the great Tutorial!
The only thing is the Track Import will not show up in my VL3x :(
I made sure to format my flashdrive as FAT32, added the audio track respecting the right format (WAV 24 Bits / 4800) but no success.
No Track Import neither Backing Track tabs (in Looper menu)
Also, I tried updating VL3x firmware, but Track Import tab still will not come after attaching the flashdrive into my device.
* After adding the thumbdrive to my PC, I can see VL3X created the Loop folder in the drive, but for some reason it does not read the track from the drive.
Any ideas on what could be happening?
great tutorial. Just got mine and want to know if there is a way to use the click alongside backing tracks or is there a way to split backing tracks and have click on one side and track on other? Thanks
genial!!! muchísimas gracias!! estoy esperando a que me llegue de Thomann una y en cuanto llegue gracias a tus totorales voy a disfrutarla mas :)))
Hola Pablo, cuando la uses podrías compartir tus impresiones, por favor? Estoy evaluando hacerme una de ellas y tu opinión sería genial.
Franco Rhodes Cruz Bueno hola!!! Por supuesto es un placer! Empezemos por contar en que contexto uso yo la VL3X. Yo soy vocalista y guitarra ritmica (acustica/electrica en un grupo de Rockpopindie. En el pasado tenia varios pedales en mi pedalboard pero desde que me llego la VL3x he resumido todo a ella y los 2 pedales Strymon ( timeLine y Bigsky ) e incluso estoy sopesando y evaluando la calidad del Drive que no me esta convenciendo de la VL3x prescindiendo de un overdrive bueno.
Hasta el momento me encuentro estudiandola y cada dia descubro posibilidades nuevas con ella pero claro esta que solo llevo con ella menos de un mes...
Yo uso la opcion back in track para poder disparar algunas teclas en los ensayos con vistas de hacerlo en futuras actuaciones pero tenia el impedimento de que esa opción no te deja incorporarle el metronomo ( claqueta ) para que por lo menos el bateria la pueda escuchar por cascos. Pues al fin un usuario dejo una solicion por una pagina y encontre la manera de añadirle esa claketa.
En conclusion es un aparato que merece la pena pues si te gusta que tu voz este procesada y añoras coros y delays “ que tu puedas preprogramar en partes de las canciones sin tener que preocuparte de pisotear los pedales... es genial. Pero ojo enfocala siempre a la voz, los efectos de guitarra no pueden competir con un Timeline o un bigsky etc. Saludos y Salud!!
Gracias!. Sabes si se pueden sincronizar dos equipos voice live 3 para usar el loop de forma coordinada?
How can I change and save "TRACK GAIN"??? It's always -6 db, I change it and than again it's the same -6 db
Hello, this is my last resort any help greatly appreciated. This is regarding my Voicelive 3 extreme.
I see in the main mix screen I can control the guitar volume, the backing track volume even the xlr volume but not the mic volume? I can't see a separate mic volume in any of the mix screens??
I am using a stereo output mode because I have stereo effects on my backing tracks.
I just want an easy way to adjust the elements of my performance (mic, guitar , backing track).
The only solution I can think of at the moment is turning the backing track up or down to mix with the vocal but then my guitar levels are all out because I have set those to the backing track!!
There must be an easy way I am missing here?
Please help.
Jason
Hello, on minute 10:40 you mention that you can have preset for "backing tracks" and launch all your bt's from that preset.
I tried to do that, but the automation seems to work only for a backing track, It seems that the automation won't save per-track basis. I'm I doing something wrong? Should the device record independent automation per track even if I load them on the fly with the method mentioned? Thanks in advance.
Please help! How do I connect the VL3X to my drummers ears for live band situation to stay in synch woth automation? And how can he have a click track running without it comming out through the P.A? Please help!
i have one question: how can i delete a backing track ? (not the hole preset, only the backing track)
Same question 😅 I use it too, and didn’t found how i can delete the tracks i’m not using anymore...
Hi, can we change the order of the backing Tracks please? Thank you.
Hi Bishop, Have you come across anything that does what the vl3x does but that can also send midi to control other devices. The vl3x only receives midi
Perfect, thank you
Is it the same with the VL3 ??
Hello. How can I save track gain on the same position that I need for every backing track?
Is it not possible to store backing tracks in the standard Voicelive 3 via the looper? Or only on the Extreme version?
One question if I have a backing track that is just super loud can on the v3 turn it down great video by the way
Can we record vocals in the backing track too and save it on the pendrive with no computers involved?
Thanks for your wonderful tutorial. I just wonder it. How can I delete backing track?
Hi Bishop, Any thoughts on getting a click track synced with a backing track? Could you record the track in your DAW with the click track panned to one side say to the right and then put the VL3X in stereo mode and isolate that for the drummer?
Can I use backing tracks as 'steps" for a preset, so Song1 preset will have 2 backing tracks, Step1 will have the verse backing track, and Step2 will have the chorus backing track? Then I can just flip between verse and chorus backing tracks by using the Step switch?
i like your videos just i wanna you make some video about looping plese
