Fostex VF160EX operation manual Scene sequence mode on/off selection, Executing the scene sequence

Scene sequence mode on/off selection

You can turn on or off the scene sequence mode for selecting whether or not executing the scene sequence program using the scene event map.

1.While the VF160EX is stopped, press the [A RTN A PLAY/ SCENE SEQ] key while holding down the [SHIFT] key.

After "SCENE SEQ: ON" is briefly shown on the screen, the Normal display appears.

Each time you press the [A RTN A PLAY/SCENE SEQ] key while holding down the [SHIFT] key, ON and OFF alternates. When the scene sequence mode is set to ON, the scene number indicator on the Normal display is highlighted (When OFF, it is not highlighted).

Executing the scene sequence

When the scene sequence mode is set to ON, the scenes will be recalled according to the scene event map dur- ing playback.

<Notes>

•When executing the scene sequence, the fader positions are recalled according to the fader recall mode in the SETUP mode (the default is "Off"). For example, if you set the fader recall mode to "CH & MST", both the channel and master faders are automatically recalled every time the current scene changes. On the contrary, if you set the fader recall mode to "Off" (the default mode), fader positions are not recalled so you can manually control fader positions as you like.

We suggest you to make sure to set the fader recall mode suitably for your work before executing the scene sequence. See page 145 for details about the fader recall mode setting.

•When you do not use the scene sequence function, set the scene sequence mode to OFF.

•Effect presets of the internal effect processor are classified into three types; ambience/delay type (No.1 through 28), modulation/pitch type (No.29 through 36) and pitch type (No.37 and 38).

Note that the scene sequence function does not recall an effect preset whose type is different from the cur rent one. This is to avoid momentary audio muting, and is not a malfunction. The other mix parameters of the scene can be recalled even if it includes an effect preset whose type is different from the current one.

<Screen appearances during playback>

The following show the screen appearances during play- back with the scene event map in which scene number 02 (with title "XXX") is recalled at 01m 30s and scene number 05 (with title "YYY") is recalled at 05m 00s.

The unit starts playback with scene number 00 (Init Mix).

The unit recalls scene number 2 (XXX) at 01m 30s and continues playback.

The unit recalls scene number 5 (YYY) at 05m 00s and continues playback.

<Hint>

The unit continues playback with the scene number recalled by the last event memory.

Therefore, if you want to recall scene number 00 again after recalling scene number 05, you have to create the last event memory that recalls scene number 00 at the desired time.
