7—Project and Drive Operations

This chapter describes the various project- and hard drive-related activities you can
perform from the VS-2480’s PROJECT menu screens. Most everything that has to do
with an entire project can be found on this menu.

Navigating the PROJECT Menu Screens

1. Press PROJECT in the MENU area of the VS-2480’s top panel.
2. The VS-2480 scans your drives. When it’s done, the first PROJECT menu screen
appears.
To perform a project- or hard drive-related operation, press the operation’s F button,
shown on a tabbed layer at the bottom of the screen.

Working with the PROJECT LIST

You can scroll through the items in the project list by pressing

or

.
The project list shows all your available drives. Your internal drives are labeled as
“IDE:(partition number).” As shipped from the factory, these partitions are IDE:0, IDE:1
and IDE:2. Each additional drive—including a connected Roland-approved CD-R/RW
drive or a Zip drive—is identified by its SCSI ID number.
You can quickly save the latest changes you’ve made to the currently loaded project by
holding down SHIFT and pressing ZERO•STORE. We recommend you do this often.
As noted in “How a VS-2480 Hard Drive Organizes Data” on Page 86, each hard drive
partition is called a “drive.”
