Setup Considerations
14
Mono or Stereo Setup?
Most effects have a wider spatial effect in stereo, so if
you have a stereo PA/sound system or you are
recording, this will produce the best sound. This is
especially true for presets based on reverb styles and
ping pong delay styles.
To connect Create XT in
stereo connect a pair of
cables from the L/Mono
and R/Dry outputs to two
mixer channels in a stereo
PA system. Make sure
your mixer channels are
panned hard left and right
and the left/right levels are
in balance.
If you do not have a stereo PA, then configuring Create
XT for mono output is perfectly acceptable while
reducing cabling and mixer channel usage.
What Is The Pedal Input For?
This is an option that makes Create XT more like its big
brother,VoiceLive 2. Part of the appeal of that product is
that you are able to turn effect blocks on and off within
the preset while standing. The sound of a Create XT
preset is generally made up of several effect blocks
Is my PA truly stereo?
Just having two speakers
connected to a sound
system doesn’t mean it is
truly stereo. To test that
your sound system is
stereo, connect your mic
directly to a mixer
channel and move the
pan control on the
channel left and right; if
the sound moves from
one speaker to the other,
your PA is stereo.
