Roland VS-2480, VS-2480CD

Using Effects

If VS8F-2 effect expansion boards are installed, you can use up to eight stereo effects

without needing to connect any external devices to the VS-2480/2480CD. Here’s

how to use effects when VS8F-2s have been installed. The VS-2480/2480CD comes

equipped with one internal effects expansion board (containing two effects

processors).

Selecting the effect patch you wish to use

The VS8F-2 contains numerous effects. You can process the sound by selecting a

combination of effects (a patch) appropriate for your situation. Here we will select a

reverb patch.

For details on installing a

VS8F-2, refer to “Installing

Effect Expansion Boards

(p. 11).”

If the Display Indicates “No EFFECT Board”

A VS8F-2 has not been installed. Internal effects cannot be used.

If this message appears even though a VS8F-2 has been installed, the VS8F-2 has not

been recognized correctly. Turn off the power as described in “Turning Off the

Power (p. 23),” and re-install the effect expansion board correctly.
