Chapter 21 System and Global Settings

Global Settings

These are settings related to the overall operation of the VS- 1824. Unlike system settings, these settings are not set on a song-by-song basis.

Shift Lock

Many functions in the VS-1824 are accessed by holding [SHIFT], and then pressing a second button. If you find it inconvenient to use two hands, you can set Shift Lock to temporarily lock in the [SHIFT] button. This allows you to perform most [SHIFT] functions with one hand.

1.Hold [SHIFT] and press [F5 (SYSTEM)]. The System Menu icon is displayed.

If the System Menu icon does not appear, press [F6 (EXIT)].

2.Press [F2 (GLOBL)].

If “GLOBL” does not appear above [F2], first press [PAGE] until “GLOBL” appears, and then press [F2 (GLOBL)].

3.Use [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the cursor to “Shift Lock.”

4.Use the TIME/VALUE dial to change the setting for Shift Lock.

Shift Lock

Set this to “On” to enable the Shift Lock function.

5.Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)] to return to the Playlist display.

6.The [SHIFT] button indicator lights on and off each time the button is pressed. [SHIFT] is in effect when the indicator is lit. The [SHIFT] state changes when another button is pressed or the TIME/VALUE dial is turned.
