Listening for a lifetime
Selecting fine audio equipment such as the unit you’ve just purchased is only the start of your musical enjoyment.
Now it’s time to consider how you can maximize the fun and excitement your equipment offers. VocoPro and the
Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment
by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or
distortion and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing.
Sound can be deceiving. Over time your hearing “comfort level” adapts to a higher volume of sound. So what
sounds “normal” can actually be loud and harmful to your hearing. Guard against this by setting your equipment
at a safe level BEFORE your hearing adapts.
To establish a safe level:
• Start your volume control at a low setting.
• Slowly increase the sound until you can hear it comfortably and clearly, and without
distortion.
Once you have established a comfortable sound level:
• Set the dial and leave it there.
• Pay attention to the different levels in various recordings.
Taking a minute to do this now will help to prevent hearing damage or loss in the future. After all, we want you
listening for a lifetime.
Used wisely, your new sound equipment will provide a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. Since hearing damage from
loud noise is often undetectable until it is too late, this manufacturer and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group recommend you avoid prolonged exposure to excessive noise. This list of sound
levels is included for your protection.
Some common decibel ranges:
Level
Example
30
Quiet library, Soft whispers
40
50
60
70
80
Living room, Refrigerator, Bedroom away from traffic
Light traffic, Normal Conversation
Air Conditioner at 20 ft., Sewing machine
Vacuum cleaner, Hair dryer, Noisy Restaurant
Average city traffic, Garbage disposals, Alarm clock at 2 ft.
The following noises can be dangerous under constant exposure:
Example

Amplifier, mixer and external sound system connections
Music and Vocals
The DA-3700PRO’s LINE OUT (RCA) jacks can be used to connect to a second power amplifier, an external sound system or mixing
device. Note: The DA-3700 offers optimum performance when used as an amp for home sound systems and smaller performance
systems and speakers. See our VP Series power amplifiers for more professional applications at VocoPro.com or your nearest
VocoPro dealer.
Use L/R RCA audio cables to connect to an amplifier, mixer or other external sound system. Connect from the L/R LINE OUTPUT
on the DA-3700PRO to the L/R audio input on your amp, mixer or sound system.
Outputting Vocals Independently
You can output vocals independently from the DA-3700PRO into a mixer from the L/R RCA MIC Outputs. Connect the L/R RCA
cable from the MIC OUTPUT to an Audio Input on your mixer.
Mixer/amp
External speaker connection
You can connect directly to speakers using either MDP (banana plug) speaker cables or standard speaker wires. Be sure to correctly
match the polarities (+/-). Connect speakers rated no lower than 4-Ohms to the DA-3700 Pro. Please do not try to connect more
than one speaker per channel, as the load may exceed the amplifiers handling capacity, causing it to overload.
If using standard speaker wire, unscrew each plastic bind until you are able to see an interior hole for speaker wire (this is easier to
locate when viewing from a side angle). Slide the speaker wires into the slots and tighten the plastic binds to tighten them in place. Be
sure there is no insulation on the speaker wire preventing conductivity.

Balancing the Music with the Vocals
The DA-3700 Pro has MASTER, HIGH, MID and LOW controls for both the music and the microphone levels, which enables you to
adjust your mix levels with precision, resulting in a professional-sounding mix. If you find that the music is too loud, simply adjust the
MUSIC VOLUME control. Also, keep in mind that HIGH, MID and LOW levels also affect the overall “sound” and can be adjusted to
correct sound balancing problems. Excessive high (treble) frequencies can lead to feedback, so be careful when adjusting them.
Balancing a Microphone Channel
When adjusting Mic levels, it is recommended to do so in this order:
1. First adjust the MIC VOLUME control to approximately 50%. (Shown on Fig. 1)
2. Then balance the LOW, MID and HIGH controls to approximately 40-60%. (Shown on Fig. 2)
3. Start background music with the MUSIC VOLUME set at approximately 50%. (Shown on Fig. 3)
4. Fine-tune each MIC CHANNEL as necessary till you get a clean balanced mix
5. Remember to compensate if the background music has striking volume changes. To do this, you can utilize the -20dB GAIN PAD.
The -20dB Gain Pad toggles between a current volume level and reduced gain volume level. This control can be used to immedi-
ately go from one volume level to another by a quick push of the button.
6. Once all the settings are complete, do a complete song for complete balancing success.
