Hi! I see that your Harmony feature in VocaLive isn’t working. Let’s get that sorted out for you. Could you tell me a bit more about what you’re experiencing? For example:

- Is the harmony effect not producing any sound, or is it distorted?
- Are you using the built-in iPhone mic, earbuds, or an external mic like iRig?
- Have you noticed if the harmony fails all the time or only in certain songs or settings?
- Have you already tried adjusting any volume or harmony-specific controls in the app?

This info will help me guide you through the best fix!

Thanks for the details! You're using iRig with VocaLive, the Choir effect is on with volume up, your instrument sound comes through, but the choir harmony part is silent. Let’s troubleshoot this together.

Here’s a step-by-step approach to try:

1. Check Audio Output Settings on your iPhone:
Sometimes the iRig output and iPhone's internal audio routing can conflict. Try unplugging and plugging in the iRig again, and ensure your iPhone’s sound output is correctly set to the iRig device (check Control Center’s audio output selector).

2. Mono Audio Setting on iPhone:
Go to Settings > General > Accessibility and scroll to Mono Audio. If Mono Audio is turned ON, please turn it OFF. Mono audio can sometimes cause issues with layered sounds like harmonies not being heard properly.

3. App Permissions:
Make sure VocaLive has necessary microphone and audio permissions. Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone, find VocaLive, and ensure it’s ON.

4. VocaLive Choir Effect Settings:
Double-check inside VocaLive that the Choir/harmony effect isn't muted on any individual layer or in the mixer section, and that its volume is up. Also, verify if any other effect or EQ setting might be attenuating the harmony sound.

5. Restart Both iPhone and VocaLive App:
Close VocaLive completely (swipe up from app switcher) and power off and on your iPhone, then restart the app to clear temporary glitches.

6. Test Harmony Without iRig:
Try using the iPhone’s internal mic and speakers to see if the choir effect works there. This can help isolate if the issue is iRig-specific.

7. Update Firmware and App:
Check if your iRig interface firmware and VocaLive app are updated to the latest versions, as updates often fix compatibility issues.

If after these steps the choir is still silent only when using iRig, let me know. There might be an iRig-specific audio routing or input/output setting we can explore next. Also, which exact iRig model are you using?

Are you comfortable trying these so far? I’m here to guide you through each step!
