Momentary Mode
The standard func tion of the footswitch is a latching style, meaning that each
press of the footswitch turns the harmony on and o. Alternatively, the pedal can
operate in momentary mode, meaning that the harmony is only ac tive while the
footswitch is held down. As soon as you release the footswitch,
the harmony is bypassed.
To switch the unit to momentary mode, hold the Tone button down while
powering the unit on. Repeat the process to return to latching mode.
Changing the Batteries
Harmony Singer 2 can operate on 4 AA batteries. Remove the single screw on
the bottom of the pedal to open the battery door. Make sure to observe correct
polarity when inserting the batteries.
Auto Gain
Harmony Singer 2 will automatically adjust the gain setting for your microphone,
eliminating the need for manual adjustments and ensuring that a good signal is
passed to the mixer without any unwanted distortion.
24 V Phantom Power
Phantom power is always active on the Harmony Singer 2. This will power
condenser microphones, but will not aect dynamic mics either.
Mic Control
Mic Control allows you to control the eect's on/o status via an
MP-75 microphone. Press and hold the footswitch while powering up the unit
to toggle Mic Control.

Guitar Input
Connect any guitar pedals between Harmony Singer’s Guitar Output jack and
the input of your amp. Connecting and activating some guitar pedals before the
Guitar Input jack may adversely aect vocal harmony production.
Tips:
• Strumming chords works better than single note playing for
harmony control
• When changing chords, ensure that the root and 3rd of each
new chord are played clearly
• To harmonize correctly from the rst chord of a song,
briey play the rst chord before singing
Note that when using a condenser microphone, Mic Control should be disabled to
prevent unwanted on/o switching.
