the antenna. If the antenna lead-in is 300-ohm ribbon
lead, change the lead-in to coaxial type cable.
If these corrective measures do not produce satisfactory
results, please contact your local retailer authorized to
distribute Vocopro products. If you can not locate the
appropriate retailer, please contact Vocopro, 1728
Curtiss Court, La Verne, CA 91750.
1. To ensure the finest performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

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
30
40
50
60
70
80
Example
Quiet library, Soft whispers
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:
Level
90
100
120
140
180
Example
Subway, Motorcycle, Truck traffic, Lawn Mower
Garbage truck, Chainsaw, Pneumatics drill

Below we provide some general information to help understand how a professional Karaoke system works
and how it is connected.
Signal Path
When connecting your professional Karaoke system, the key is keeping in mind the signal path from the
source music into your KJ-7800 and out to your monitor, amp and speakers. Understanding the signal path
before installation will make the process easier and most likely save you lots of time! Below is a diagram
illustrating a basic signal path.
Since the KJ-7800 Pro has numerous connectivity options, and there exist many variations in user needs, we
illustrate a system where all possible connections are used. Note: This is a reference model only. Reference
what you need from the diagram. Some connections may not apply for your system.

4. BASS - This controls the level for low frequency EQ.
Use this control to boost or reduce the BASS frequencies
in the audio signal.
5. ECHO - This controls the level of DIGITAL ECHO applied
to each microphone channel. Use this control to increase
or reduce the ECHO applied.
6. CHANNEL FADER - The CHANNEL FADER raises
or lowers the Mic or line volume of the channel as it is
moved up or down.
7. CUE - This monitors the input signal from the mixer
board to the headphones. Press CUE on any channel to
hear only that channel through the headphones. Note: If
you cue more than one channel, each selected channel
will be audible as well.
8. KEY - This assigns DIGITAL KEY CONTROL to each
applicable channel. If the button is pressed, the DIGITAL
KEY CONTROL setting will be applied.
9. TALKOVER - The TALKOVER feature allows the KJ/
DJ/VJ to make announcements by instantly lowering the
music volume when there is mic activity. To use, select
“ON.” Select “OFF” to disable. When set to “AUTO,” it will
automatically lower the music volume when mic activ-
ity is present, and return music when no mic activity is
present. Note: This feature only works with the Mic 1,
as that channel is designed to be used by KJs, DJs and
VJs. Other channels are not affected by the Talk Over
function.
1. XLR or 1/4” MICROPHONE/LINE INPUTS - This
combination input can be used to connect either a low
impedance (XLR) high impedance (1/4”) microphone or
line-level device. The 1/4” INPUT jack is located in the
center of the jack housing. The XLR INPUT jack is locat-
ed within the outer perimeter of the jack housing. Align
the 3 pins of your XLR mic cable with the appropriate
positioning in the jack.
2. GAIN - This controls the input level from any device
that is connected to the mic/line input jack. To increase
GAIN level, turn clockwise. To decrease, turn counter-
clockwise.
3. TREBLE - This controls the level for high frequency
EQ. Use this control to boost or reduce the TREBLE in
the audio signal. To increase TREBLE, turn clockwise. To
decrease, turn counter-clockwise.

Middle Panel
Descriptions and Functions
1. VIDEO SELECT toggle - Holding this switch in
the CROSSFADER position for a second toggles vid-
eo selection options between either CROSSFADER
activation and MANUAL.
When in CROSSFADER mode, the LED above
SOURCE toggle will illuminate blue. This indicates
that video ouput signal is recieved from the two
assigned sources in the crossfader ASSIGN selec-
tions. You can alternate between any two of the
three source inputs by pushing the crossfader ei-
ther to the far left or far right. As you shift the
crossfader in either direction, you will see the
respective VIDEO 1, 2, or 3 LEDs above the
SOURCE toggles illuminate.
In MANUAL mode, the CROSSFADER VIDEO
TOGGLE LED is not illuminated, indicating that you
can manually shift between the VIDEO LEDs by sim-
ply pushing the VIDEO SELECT toggle in the MAN-
UAL postion repeatedly to cycle through VIDEO 1
(red LED), 2 (green LED) and 3 (yellow LED).
2. STEREO CHANNEL SOURCE toggle - This
switch will toggle between AV, PHONO/LINE and
CD sources connected to that channel. As stated
above, if you have both a CD+G player and a turn-
table connected to the same channel, only that
device to which this SOURCE TOGGLE is selected
would be audible. Applicable graphics/video sig-
nals are output accordingly.
3. SIGNAL light - This light illuminates blue when a
signal is recieved to STEREO CHANNEL 1, 2 or 3.
4. GAIN - This knob controls the input level from
that channel’s selected source. To increase the
GAIN, turn clockwise. Note: Adjusting this knob is
not synonymous to adjusting the channel fader. The
gain knob adjusts the input level from the source,
while the channel fader adjusts the output level
from the source. For best audio results, adjust
GAIN until just before distortion is noticeable.
5. VOCAL PARTNER/MULTIPLEX FUNCTION &
VOCAL ELMINATOR
VOCAL PARTNER/MULTIPLEX - This feature can
alternately remove and activate “guide” or “lead” vocals
with compatible Multiplex media. On this type of media,
music and lead vocals are panned hard left and right.
With the first press of this button, the red MULTIPLEX
LED is lit, indicating that lead vocals have been re-
moved, a feature also known as VOCAL CANCEL. The
channel with music only is duplicated so it is heard in
both left and right channels. Some backing vocals will
remain if there is overlap in the way they are recorded.
Pressed two more times, this button will illuminate the
yellow LED to indicate VOCAL PARTNER and guide vo-
cals will be activated.
VOCAL ELIMINATOR - Press the button until the cen-
ter, green LED illuminates. With standard recordings,
you will be able to partially remove lead vocals to turn
any recording into a Karaoke performance or for remix-
ing possibilities. To return to regular disc playback,
press this button until all three LEDs are unlit.
6. DIGITAL KEY CONTROL - Key Control allows you to
modify the original key of a track without changing its
tempo to match the natural range of your voice. You
can raise or lower your source music a total of 11
steps, or half note increments from its “natural” key.
To step DOWN or “flat (b)” the key, press the left but-
ton. To step UP or “sharp (#)” the key, press the right
button. To revert back to the original/natural key press
the middle NORMAL button. Note: Key changes are only
cueable when Master cueing.
7. CHANNEL FADER - Each fader raises and lowers
the volume of the corresponding STEREO 1, 2 or 3
channel as it is moved up or down.
8. CUE - This monitors the input signal from the mix
board to the headphones. Press CUE to hear that chan-
nel through the headphones. Note: If you cue more than
one channel, those channels will be audible as well.

11
9. KEY - This assigns DIGITAL KEY CONTROL to
the channel. If the button is pressed, DIGITAL
KEY CONTROL will be applied to that channel.
10. CROSSFADER/VIDEO TOGGLE - The
CROSSFADER allows the user to fade the music
out from one source and in to another source,
while simultaneously switching the VIDEO TOGGLE
between the two associated video inputs. For
example, a clean fade from one CDG to another
is possible, automatically cueing the lyrics for
each disc on your video monitor.
The KJ-7800 eliminates manual video cueing
from the music source switching process.
However, you have the choice of cueing manually
if you prefer or the situation calls for it. Select
either MANUAL or CROSSFADER from the VIDEO
SELECT toggle (pg 10,#1). Note: The crossfad-
er will only fade in/out from the two sources that
have been assigned to it.
11. ASSIGN - These buttons work in conjunction
with the CROSSFADER. Assigning channels
determines which inputs will be included in the
crossfade. For example, to fade between a track
from STEREO CHANNEL 1 to a track cued on
STEREO CHANNEL 2, the ASSIGN button on the
left should be pressed to illuminate the 1 LED,
and the right pressed to illuminate the 2 LED.
You will hear that one input source “fades” out”
while the other fades in when the
CROSSFADER is moved from left to right.
Note: Make sure your STEREO CHANNEL
SOURCE toggle is set properly to the input
type you are using (see BACK PANEL for
connections).

Descriptions and Functions
1. POWER - This button turns the KJ-7000 Pro ON
in the upper position, OFF in lower.
2. LED METERS - These meters display system
OUTPUT LEVELS. For maximum performance with a
clean, undistorted signal, increase source output, as
well as the KJ-7800’s GAIN, CHANNEL FADER and
L/R MASTER FADERS until meter peaks in the yel-
low LED range (-2 to +4). Input should rarely cause
meters to peak in the range of the red LEDs for best
sound.
3. 12V LIGHT JACK (BNC) - This BNC style jack is
for connecting a 12V DJ LIGHT, ideal for mixing in
dark environments.
4. AV OUT LEVEL - This level control only affects the
RCA jacks from AV OUT on the back panel.
MASTER and CHANNEL faders will not effect ouput
levels from these jacks.
5. MASTER EQUALIZER - This 5-band, Graphic EQ
gives you additional control over your tone in the 60
Hz, 250 Hz, 1KHz, 4Khz and 12KHz frequencies
with a +/- 12 boost or cut for precise room
tuning. Adjust these controls to suit your sound
quality preferences.
6. MASTER EQUALIZER ON/OFF - This button
must be pressed in to activate the Graphic EQ.
7. CUE/MASTER - This button toggles between
CHANNEL Cueing and MASTER Cueing. When
CHANNEL cueing, you will only hear channels that
have been selected for Cueing. When MASTER
Cueing, you will hear MASTER OUTPUT, regardless of
which channels have been selected for Cueing. Note:
Digital Key Control changes are only audible when
MASTER Cueing.
8. HEADPHONES jack - This 1/4” jack is for
connecting HEADPHONES.
9. PHONES LEVEL - This control adjusts the
headphones volume level when cueing. Turn clockwise
for more volume and counter-clockwise for less
volume. Note: Volume output may be much louder
when CHANNEL cueing than MASTER cueing. It is
recommended to adjust this level prior to toggling
between cue options.

10. MASTER L/R FADERS - These slide con-
trols raise and lower the Left and Right MASTER
OUTPUT levels for all stereo channels as they
are moved up and down, providing an overall
volume level for each channel mixed together.
Balance each channel’s individual fader control
for the best mix.
11. BOOTH FADER - This slide control raises
or lowers the output level for the BOOTH OUT
located on the back panel.
Note: This slide control is only functional
when monitors or a control booth is
connected from the corresponding outputs.
12. ECHO - This button controls whether ECHO
is applied to selected MIC channels. If this
button is pressed to the in position, the ECHO
settings will be applied to any assigned channels.
If it is in the extended position, the ECHO settings
will not be applied to any channel, whether individu-
ally selected or not. Individual channel ECHO is
adjusted through MIC channel ECHO control.
13. ECHO LEVEL - This control serves as a
master LEVEL for the ECHO settings. If ECHO is
assigned to a MIC channel, this knob will control
how much ECHO is applied before individual
adjustments. Each channel-specific echo control
and should be used in unison with this master
level control.
14. REPEAT - This control adjusts the number
of ECHO repetitions before the effect “decays.”
In other words, as more REPEAT is applied,
more echo intervals will be heard before the
ECHO fades out.
15. DELAY - This control adjusts length of each
time between ECHO intervals. As more DELAY is
applied, there will be the illusion of more “space”
between the starting and ending point of each
echo.

1. AC INPUT - This is the terminal for the AC power cable. Carefully insert the AC power cable here. The
AC power cable should fit firm into housing.
2. BOOTH OUT - These 1/4” jacks are for sending audio to BOOTH/MONITOR speakers. The output level
to the BOOTH/MONITOR speakers is controlled via the BOOTH fader. Connect an appropriate cable from
these jacks to your BOOTH/MONITOR speakers. Note: If your Booth/Monitor speakers do not have a
built-in amplifier, you will need to connect them to a dedicated amplifier to power them.
3. BALANCED (XLR) MASTER OUT - These BALANCED MASTER OUT jacks are for balanced XLR cables.
These jacks provide connection to a power amplifier. Note: If your amplifier has 1/4” input jacks, you will
need 1/4” to XLR cables or adaptors. Some amplifiers offer multiple connection options, including RCA
“unbalanced” input. See number 4.
4. UNBALANCED (RCA) MASTER OUT - These UNBALANCED MASTER OUT jacks are for
standard RCA cables. These jacks provide connection to a power amplifier as well. Note: If your amplifier
has 1/4” input jacks, you will need 1/4” to RCA cables or adaptors.
5. RECORD OUT - These L/R RCA jacks jacks bypass the MASTER OUTS for connection to any CD burner,
cassette, or DAT recorder to record your mix. Ideal for the mobile DJ/KJ that wants to offer their cus-
tomer a recording at the end of their performance.
6. AV OUT - In addition to the MASTER and BOOTH outs, this mixed RCA L/R output gives you an additional
option for connection of your mix to external components. Use in conjuction with the AV OUT LEVEL on the
Master Panel (pg 12, #4) to control the signal level.
7. AV INPUT 1, 2, 3 - These STEREO INPUT jacks are for connecting external components to the KJ-7800
Pro. You can connect any L/R RCA cables to these inputs, but there are dedicated inputs for CD or
PHONO/LINE to provide optimal sound quality. Adjust the STEREO CHANNEL SOURCE toggle on the middle
panel of the KJ-7800 accordingly.
8. PHONO 1, 2, 3/LINE INPUT- Use these STEREO INPUT jacks to connect turntables using L/R RCA.
With PHONO 1 and 2, you also have the option of selecting line input, using #9 in conjunction with these
jacks. Adjust the STEREO CHANNEL SOURCE toggle on the middle panel of the KJ-7800 accordingly.

9. PHONO/LINE switches - When inputing turntables to the PHONO/LINE 1 or 2 STEREO INPUT jacks,
use the accompanying switch. Select the out position to toggle to PHONO and the in position to toggle to
LINE input type.
10. CD INPUT 1, 2, 3 - Use these dedicated inputs for CD players as source music with RCA L/R
cables. Adjust the STEREO CHANNEL SOURCE toggle on the middle panel of the KJ-7800
accordingly.
11. MICROPHONE INSERTS - These jacks are for connecting out-board effects units. The audio from
the MIC channels are routed out from the INSERT jacks to your out-board effects unit(s) and routed back
with the effects applied, using only a single cable. In order to use these jacks, you will need appropriate
TRS (tip = send, ring = return, sleeve = signal ground) insert cables.
12. VOLTAGE SELECTOR - This switch can change the voltage from 115V to 230V. Before your KJ-
7800 Pro is shipped from the factory, the switch is set to 115V. If you live in an area that has different
voltage requirements (230-240V), you MUST set it to 230V.
13. GROUND LIFT switch - A “ground loop” is a phenomenon where an unintended connection to ground
is made through an interfering electrical conductor, causing what is known as “60Hz hum.” A GROUND
LIFT switch adds a resistor between the ground and cable shield when switched on, effectively ridding the
system of hum.
14. GROUND TERMINALS - These TERMINALS are for connecting ground wires. If you are experiencing
line noise, attach wire from here to your other devices or similar suitable surface.
15. VIDEO OUT 1, 2, 3 - These jacks send graphics from input source player video output to video dis-
play device(s) such as TVs, TFTs and Monitors. Connect video cables from these VIDEO OUT jacks to the
VIDEO IN jacks on your video display device(s).
16. VIDEO IN 1, 2, 3 - These jacks allow the video component of CD+G, DVD, VCD and LD players to be
connected to the KJ-7800 Pro. Connect video cables from the VIDEO OUT jacks on your player(s) to these
VIDEO IN jacks.
17. REMOTE KEY CONTROL - This 1/8” jack is for connecting a REMOTE KEY CONTROL cable. Remote
Key Control allows you to make key changes at a distance from the Digital Key Controller on the KJ-7800.

Advanced Operations
Using Digital Key Control
Use the Digital Key Controller to obtain the a musical key that matches the natural range of your voice. You
can increase or decrease the original or “NORMAL” note by 6 steps to cover the total musical range of 12
different keys. The Digital Key Controller indicator displays either 0 for NORMAL key or ± 6 on the DOWN
and UP sides. To step UP, or “#” press the right button. To step DOWN, or “b” press the left button. To
revert back to the original key, press the NORMAL button.
Digital Key Control
Assigning Digital Key Control to MIC and STEREO Channels
You can assign the Key Control to any channel you desire. To ASSIGN, you simply press the KEY button
located to the right of the fader on each channel you want the key changes to be applied to (both MIC and
STEREO inputs) and the key changes will take immediate effect. To REMOVE a key change from a channel,
simply depress the KEY button from that channel, and it is removed.
Remote Key Controlling of assigned STEREO and MIC inputs
It is also possible to control the input key of assigned channels with a REMOTE KEY CONTROL such as our
MARK-10 Key Control Microphone. Connect the 1/4” cable to a MIC input, and insert its 1/8” plug into
the REMOTE KEY CONTROL jack (pg 15, #17). Use the device’s Key Control buttons to modify the key.

Customizing Digital Echo settings (See Figure 1)
When using Digital Echo, you can customize the effect by adjusting the ECHO, REPEAT and DELAY controls.
First set the ECHO level control to 5. Then customize the effect with the REPEAT and DELAY level controls.
REPEAT adjusts the interval repetition of the echo effect. As more REPEAT is applied, more echo intervals
will be heard when using it and vice versa. DELAY adjusts length of each interval. As more DELAY is applied,
there will be more “space” between the starting and ending point of each echo. When the Digital Echo effect
is customized, adjust the ECHO level control as you would a master level control.

Vocal Partner/Vocal Eliminator/Multiplex features v(See Figure 2)
The VOCAL button can switch between three modes
1. MULTIPLEX - With Multiplex media, music and lead vocals are panned hard left and right. With the first
press of this button, the red MULTIPLEX LED is lit, indicating that lead vocals have been removed. This feature
is also known as VOCAL CANCEL. The channel with music only is duplicated so it is heard in both left and right
channels. Some backing vocals will remain if there is overlap in the way they are recorded.
2. VOCAL PARTNER - Pressed two more times, the VOCAL button will illuminate the yellow LED to indicate
VOCAL PARTNER and “guide” or “lead” vocals will be activated. In this mode, the vocal layer will be cancelled
only as long there is Mic activity present. When there is no Mic/Line activity present, the vocal layer appears
for continuity. In other words, while you are singing, the vocal layer is cancelled, and when you are not singing,
the vocal layer is output. This mode is commonly used when a solo singer wants to simulate a duet, with the
KJ-7800 as the “partner.”
3. VOCAL ELIMINATOR - Press the VOCAL button until the center, green LED illuminates. With standard
recordings, you will be able to partially remove lead vocals to turn any recording into a Karaoke performance
or for remixing possibilities. It is not possible for such an effect to entirely remove vocals from a recording
because it operates by selecting certain frequencies that best represent the vocal range in the center of a
mix. Naturally, this removes other tones in these frequencies with it. To return to regular disc playback, press
this button until all three LEDs are unlit.

Making an announcement during playback
To make an announcement during music playback, you most likely will want the music at a low enough volume
so that you can be heard over the music clearly. To do this, you use the TALK OVER function(pg 9, #9) when
the toggle is set to ON, the music volume is lowered considerably to allow for the announcement. When
done with the announcement, you switch the toggle back to OFF to return the music back to the level it was
originally. If you make several announcements, and want to avoid Talk Over On/Off switching, use the AUTO
mode. When in AUTO mode, the music volume level will automatically lower whenever there is mic activity
during an announcement and return when the announcement is over.
Note: Talk Over only works with Mic 1. If you try to use it when speaking into Mic 2, 3 or 4, it will
not work. Mic 1 is reserved as the KJ/DJ Mic.
Talk Over
Fine tuning music for precise room tuning
To fine tune the sound of your musical output, we included the 5-Band Graphic EQ. This EQ makes adjust-
ing the warmth or sharpness of your music a breeze. Frequency range settings are: 60, 250, 1k, 4k and
12k. The lows are 60 and 250, the mid is 1k and the highs are 4k and 12k. Below we have provided
some common general settings.
Channel Cueing
Channel cueing monitors the input signal(s) from the mix board to the headphones. When channel cueing,
you can select as many channels as you like to cue to headphones. To CHANNEL CUE, first make sure the
MASTER/CUE SELECTOR button is set to CUE. Then press the CUE button on each channel that you want
cued to the headphones. To REMOVE a channel from being cued, simply depress that channels CUE
button. To INCREASE or DECREASE the volume level to headphones, use the CUE LEVEL control located
next to the Cue/Master button. Note: It is recommended to only cue necessary channels, as too many
cued channels can be difficult to discern from one another. Also when channel cueing, any Digital Key
changes in effect will not be audible to the headphones.

Master Cueing
Master Cueing will cue the MASTER OUTPUT to the headphones. This is commonly used to isolate the
audio signal to the headphones. Master cueing makes it possible to practice when “audible” music is not
permitted i.e. late night practicing at home. To MASTER CUE, make sure the CUE/MASTER button is set
to MASTER and adjust the CUE LEVEL control to a desired volume level. Note: When master cueing, press-
ing any channels individual Cue button will not affect output to the headphones as those buttons only work
when channel cueing.

Crossfading between sources
The crossfader allows you to “mix” or crossfade between two channels while toggling between corresponding
video outputs. To do this, you need to first ASSIGN the two channels to your CROSSFADER. On each side of
the CROSSFADER, there is an ASSIGN button. The LEFT ASSIGN button can assign either CHANNEL 1 or
2, while the RIGHT ASSIGN button can assign either CHANNEL 2 or 3. Once you have your desired channels
assigned, move their respective CHANNEL FADERS to an audible level, and slide the CROSSFADER back and
forth to crossfade.
Note: If you assign channel 2 on both sides, the crossfader will not crossfade.
Recording a Performance or Mix
To RECORD a mix or performance, connect a line-level patch cable from the RECORD OUT to the AUDIO IN
of a recording device.
