VP-03 Vocoder only works when Ensemble button is off

Post by antispop »

Hi guys, I need help here.

I´ve just bought a second hand VP-03 which seems fine and everything works, but...when I use the Vocoder it only works if I switch on bothe vocoder and ensemble buttons. For what I´ve been seeing in the videos and tutorials, the vocoder should work only with the vocoder button on.

What is strange as well is that I can´t hear my voice when I turn up the Direct mic fader.

Anyone has experienced the same issue? Could be a micro issue? Is it broken? It´s pretty annoying!

Thank you.

Need a bit more (and more accurate) info.

Your title contradicts the description in terms of whether the ensemble button is on or off.

How are you monitoring the output? Output port or internal speaker. If the former, then try unplugging and listening to the speaker. It may be you are only monitoring one of the stereo channels.
