When this is set to “On,” playback of the song stops automatically when a designated marker is reached.

If Noise Between Segments is

Obtrusive

In the seams or breaks that occur when recording is begun or ended or when a phrase is copied, obtrusive noise may occur. The VS-880EX fades-in and fades-out these breaks so that this noise will not be heard. If objectionable noise occurs, you can adjust the length of the fade-in and fade-out.

*It is not possible to set the fade-in/fade-out time to 0. Thus in some cases, such as if you copy a sustained sound such as strings and use it elsewhere, the break may be even more noticeable than if there had been no fade.

1.Press [SYSTEM] several times until “SYS System PRM ?” appears in the display.

2.Press [YES].

3.Press PARAMETER [ ] several times until “SYS Fade Length=” appears in the display.

4.Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.

Fade Length

This sets the length (2, 10, 20, 30, 40, or 50 ms) of the fade-in or fade-out.

5.Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)]. Return to Play condition.

Resetting Mixer and System Settings to Their Original State

After repeatedly making new settings to the input mixer, track mixer, and Master Block, as well as after changing the content of settings in System condition, you can restore the initial parameters existing when you started to create a song.

*Even if you restore the settings to their initial state, the song, scene, tempo map and sync track data will not be lost. Furthermore, the IDE drive (p. 167), SCSI self ID (p. 167), Scene Mode (p. 74), Shift Lock (p. 166), and Numerics Type (p. 153) settings will not return to their default state.

1.Press [SYSTEM] several times until “SYS System PRM ?” appears in the display.

2.Press [YES].

3.Press PARAMETER [ ] several times until “SYS Init Mix/SysPRM ?” appears in the display.

4.Press [YES].

A message will ask you to confirm that you really want to restore the mixer to the initial settings.

5.Press [YES]. To cancel the operation press [NO]. When the mixer settings return to the initial state, you will be in Play condition.
