Using the VS-2480 with a VM-7000 Mixing System

You can transfer audio between a VS-2480 and an R-BUs equipped Roland VM-7000
mixing system.
1. With all devices turned off, use an R-BUS cable to connect a VM-7000 R-BUS
connector to a VS-2480 R-BUS connector.
2. Turn on the VM-7000, and then the VS-2480.

Setting Up the VS-2480

1. Press UTILITY.
2. If “Proj” isn’t visible above F3, press PAGE until it is.
3. Press F3 (Proj)—the PROJECT PARAMETER screen appears.
4. Set MASTER CLOCK to INT.
5. Press F6 (EXIT).
6. Press F5 (MIDI)—the MIDI PARAMETER screen appears.
7. Set MMC MODE to SLAVE and MMC SOURCE to the R-BUS jack to which the
VM-7000 is connected.
8. Press F6 (EXIT).
9. Press F6 (SYNC) to display the SYNC PARAMETER screen.
10. Set SYNC MODE to INT.
11. Set the SYNC Gen. parameter for the R-BUS jack to which the VM-7000 is
connected to MTC.
12. Set FRAME RATE to the same frame rate the VM-7000’s using. Unless you have a
reason to select another frame rate, use 30 fps since it offers the fastest available
continuous time code.

Setting Up the VM-7200/VM-7100

1. Hold down SHIFT and press PROJECT.
2. Press

if necessary to select the row of icons containing DIGITAL I/O.
3. Press F1 (DIGITAL I/O).
4. Set:
• WORD CLOCK SOURCE to the R-BUS jack to which the VS-2480’s connected.
If the VS-2480’s connected to the VM-7000’s first R-BUS jack, select MULTI 1-8.
If it’s connected to its second R-BUS jack, select MULTI 9-16. If it’s connected to
its third R-BUS jack, choose MULTI 17-24.
• INTERNAL SAMPLING RATE to the VS-2480 project’s sample rate.
5. Hold down SHIFT and press PROJECT.
6. Press F3 (SYNC CLOCK).
7. Set:
• SYNC MASTER to EXT and the R-BUS jack to which the VS-2480’s connected
(see Step 4 above).
• FRAME TYPE to the VS-2480’s frame rate.
• MMC MASTER to INT
• MACHINE TYPE to HD.
You can now send audio in either direction between the two devices and control the
VS-2480’s transport from the VM-7000 console.
To add R-BUS connectivity to a VM mixing system, install a VM-24E I/O expansion
board—purchased separately—in your master processor for 24 channels of digital I/O.
