Connecting Two VS-700R I/O Units

The Advantages of Connecting VS-700R I/O Units

By connecting two VS-700R I/O units, you'll be able to take advantage of the audio input/output of the two units, have access to two synthesizers (Fantom VS), and be able to use two ARX expansion boards.

You will need a faster system if you connect two VS-700R I/O units.

Only ASIO is supported when using the audio input/output of the second unit

Applications that do not support ASIO cannot be used

The audio ports of the second unit cannot be selected if SONAR is set to the WDM/KS or MME driver mode.

Changes to the Settings

If you use a second I/O unit, open the top cover (ARX slot) of the second unit and set its SETTING DIP switches as follows. Then turn the VS-700R’s power off, then on again.
