What is NaturalPlay?
A device creating harmony voices and correcting
what you are singing to the right scale is a won-
derful thing. But how do you tell that device what
key the next song is in? Do you have to program
it as part of a Preset? Do you have to set it up for
each song? What if you get it wrong on stage?
NaturalPlay to the rescue! If you have a guitar
connected to VoiceLive 3, it will automatically
guide key and scale for any Harmony voices or
HardTune effects. You don’t need to make any
changes to the system for this to work. Just play
your guitar normally (chords work best) and sing!
Similarly, if you connect a MIDI-enabled key-
board using a MIDI cable, VoiceLive 3 will follow
your playing to determine key/scale for Harmony
voices and HardTune.
If you sing to pre-produced tracks and don’t
have a guitar or MIDI keyboard connected,
VoiceLive 3 will read key/scale information from
a music signal present at the Aux jack – this
might be a song from an MP3 player or smart-
phone. Finally, VoiceLive 3 can also read key/
scale information from the Monitor In jack.
As you see, NaturalPlay has you covered – no
matter what your setup is.
