15—The Aux and Direct Busses

Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 207

Adjusting an Aux Bus’s Master Level

1. Press IN 17-24/AUX MST button so that the channel strips control Input Channels
17-24 and the Aux master levels.
The eight right-most channel strips—labeled “AUX MST 1-8”—control the master
levels of the eight Aux busses.
Move the AUX MST 1-8 fader to set the master level of the desired Aux bus.

Configuring an Aux Bus

An Aux bus’s configuration determines its behavior. You can set an Aux bus so that:
it receives each channel’s signal before its fader (“pre-fader”) or after its fader
(“post-fader”). To learn about pre- and post-fader Aux sends, see Page 83.
it’s linked to its odd/even partner. See Page 206.
You can configure an Aux bus in either of two places:

its MASTER EDIT screen

—allowing you to set up all of your Aux busses at once.

a CH EDIT VIEW screen

—letting you quickly configure the Aux bus as you set up a
channel’s other parameters.

Configuring an Aux Bus from a MASTER EDIT Screen

1. While holding down SHIFT, press TR 1-16•MASTER EDIT.
2. Set the Aux bus’s Pre/Pst switch to the desired value.
3. To link the bus to its odd/even partner, turn its LINK switch on.

Configuring an Aux Bus from a CH EDIT VIEW Screen

1. If you’re not already on the CH EDIT VIEW screen for the desired input, track or FX
return channel, press the channel’s CH EDIT button.
2. Cursor to the desired Aux bus send or click it with your mouse.
ENTER/YES starts to flash to show that further options are available.
You can also adjust an Aux bus’s master level on its MASTER EDIT screen—see below.
You can adjust the Aux bus’s master level by moving the fader
underneath its Pre/Pst and LINK switches—this is the same thing
as moving its Aux master channel fader.
