18—Editing Tracks
Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 251
When you select and begin an editing operation that requires the selection of phrases
or regions, the TRACK STATUS buttons—and sometimes the SELECT buttons—start to
flash. You use these buttons to quick-select the tracks that contain the desired phrases
or regions. When you select the track:
• any phrase on the track that’s touching the timeline is selected. If there’s no phrase
touching the timeline, the track will not let itself be selected. Move the timeline so it
touches the desired phrase, and then select it.
• any region of audio on the track between the IN and OUT points is selected—see
“Placing Edit Points on a TRACK Menu Operation Screen” on Page 250. If there’s
no audio on the track between the IN and OUT points, the track cannot be selected.
To quick-select source tracks and destination tracks when moving, copying or exchanging audio:
1. If necessary, press TR 1-16 or TR 17-24 to display the track channels that
include the track you want to select.
2. Press the SELECT button of a source track—it lights solidly in green to
show that the audio comes from that track.
By default, the same track is selected as the destination track. Its
TRACK STATUS buttons light red to show this.
3. If you want to select a different destination track, press its TRACK
STATUS button so it turns red.
4. To include another set of source and destination tracks, press the new
source track’s SELECT button.
5. Press the new destination track’s TRACK STATUS button.
6. To remove a set of source and destination tracks, press the source track’s SELECT
button—the source and destination tracks’ SELECT and TRACK STATUS buttons
flash to show they’re no longer selected.
The V-Track map on the display shows you the V-Tracks that are currently
selected for editing. Any V-Track with a wide, flashing black box is a source. Any
V-Track with a wide, flashing white box is a destination.
To quick-select phrase and regions for all other quick-selectable edit operations:
1. If necessary, press TR 1-16 or TR 17-24 to display the track channels that
include the track you want to select.
2. Press the desired track’s TRACK STATUS button—it lights solid red to
show it’s targeted for editing.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 for any other tracks you want to include.
4. To unselect a track, press its TRACK STATUS button again—it flashes
green to show it’s no longer selected.
If you quick-select a phrase or region on one of a pair of linked tracks, the phrase or
region on the other linked track is also quick-selected.
Each time you select a new source track, subsequent destination track selections apply
to that source—you can’t go back and select a different destination track for a source
you selected earlier.
If you’d like to change an earlier set of source/destination tracks, press the source
track’s SELECT button, and then set it up again the way you want it.
Quick Selection always select the destination track’s currently active V-Track. To select a
different destination V-Track, use the onscreen selection tools.
