FAQs

Does the PERFORM-V require a computer to function?

No, it is designed as a standalone live unit. A computer is only needed if you wish to use the VoiceSupport app for firmware updates.

Can I use the PERFORM-V for podcasting?

Yes, its adaptive EQ and compression make it excellent for cleaning up spoken word audio, though it is primarily designed for vocalists.

What is the purpose of the HIT button?

The HIT button adds an extra layer of effects to your current preset, allowing you to instantly expand your sound for a chorus or special emphasis.

Does the device have phantom power?

Yes, it supports microphone inputs that require phantom power for professional condenser microphones.

How many presets can I save?

You can store up to 3 primary presets directly on the face of the unit for instant recall.

Can I use the RoomSense mic for recording?

The RoomSense mic is primarily for utility (harmonies/practice); for high-quality recording, it is recommended to use the dedicated XLR input.

Troubleshooting

Feedback or squealing during performance

Ensure the Anti-Feedback function is active and avoid placing the microphone directly in front of speakers.

Harmony or HardTune effects sound incorrect

These effects require valid chord information. Ensure you are playing a chorded instrument near the RoomSense mic or providing an external chord source via the AUX input.

Beaming presets from phone fails

Ensure the phone volume is set to maximum and that the phone speaker is held close to the internal RoomSense microphone on the device.
