Chapter 5 Storing Mixer Settings

SYS Scene Mode

This setting determines the fader settings when a Scene is recalled.

All: This changes the mixer settings to those of the Scene being recalled. In this case, when a Scene is recalled, the location of the faders on the top panel may no longer match the actual fader settings.

KeepF: This changes the mixer settings to those of the Scene being recalled, with the exception of the fader settings. This means that even when a Scene is recalled, fader settings will still match the fader positions on the top panel.

Making Mixer Settings Automatically (EZ Routing)

Settings related to mixer connections, including set- tings for routing of inputs to tracks for recording, for determining where signals are output, and for deter- mining which output is to be monitored can be stored and recalled easily with the VS-880EX. This is referred to as EZ Routing.

For example, when setting tracks to be played back or recorded during track bouncing, or when dealing with effects settings during mixdown there are settings which remain the same, regardless of the song. In such situations, by preparing stored mixer settings to be recalled later, you can easily get the most effective and appropriate mixer settings for each parameter.

At the time of purchase, your VS-880EX came with three read-only EZ Routing settings (Preset Routings) already configured. In addition to these, the VS-880EX offers 29 rewritable EZ Routing settings (User Routings), allowing you to make changes to the set- tings provided and then save these to the User Routings.

Easy Routing can be used in the following situations.

Recording:

When you want to record the performance input via the INPUT jacks.

Mixdown:

When you want adjust the balance of each track or to record a MD player or similar input in two-channel stereo.

Bouncing:

When recording the performance data from multiple tracks onto a number of other tracks.

Easy Routing can be set in the following two ways for recording, mixdown, and track bouncing, respectively.

Template:

Recall a read-only setting (preset routing) or a previ- ously stored setting (user routing) without change.

Step Edit:
