Introduction
Thank you very much for purchasing a ZOOM Vocal Processor.
The has numerous functions for transforming vocals and is easy-to-use, so anyone can achieve powerful
vocal sounds. After adjusting volume and clarity, you can, for example, correct the pitch of vocals while adding
harmony and reverb.
Setting values and combinations can be saved as patch memories in the unit to be used whenever you like.
You can try out a variety of vocal effects right away by switching among the preset patch memories.
With other features that include a unique formant pedal that can be used to change vocal characteristics, a
looper that can record overdubs for up to 3.5 minutes and a super-directional ZOOM SGV-6 mic, this vocal pro-
cessor is perfect for live performances.

Main features of the
Easy sound creation
Creating sounds is as easy as turning knobs and pressing switches.
Super-directional ZOOM SGV-6 mic
The super-directional ZOOM SGV-6 mic, which is based on shotgun mic technologies, catches the sound
of the vocalist with focused directionality. Using the SGV-6 suppresses feedback and interference from
nearby instruments when capturing a voice, enabling more accurate pitch correction and harmonization.
Voice character manipulation pedal
The FORMANT pedal can be used to change vocal characteristics without changing pitch, making it sound like
the voice of a different person.
The vocal automatically returns to its original character when the foot is removed from the pedal.
Singing assistance
Using the compressor to even out volume and the enhance function to add clarity helps make singing easier.
Voice, harmony and effect sections
The VOICE section allows you to easily pitch-correct vocals or create a robotic sound, for example.
The HARMONY section can be used to automatically generate third-degree and fth-degree harmonies accord-
ing to the KEY setting.
The EFFECT section is optimized for vocalists. The 10 types of effects include echo and reverb as well as ag-
gressive distortion.
3.5-minute looper great for improvisations
The looper can be used to overdub processed vocals as many times as desired, greatly expanding perfor-
mance possibilities.
Convenient undo and redo functions can be easily performed with a footswitch.
USB audio interface
The can be used as a 2-IN/2-OUT audio interface.

ume.

anter by suppressing sibilant sounds as in “hiss” and “shhh”.
