<Hint>
When selecting a desired preset entry from the Master-
ing library, the initial parameter values of the entry are
shown on the screen.
See "Mastering library details" on the next page for the
detailed information.
Setting the mastering parameters
Set the [MASTER] fader at the "0" position.
Start playback and move up the Track 7/8 fader gradu-
ally.
You can monitor the playback sound of Tracks 7/8 by
rotating the [PHONES] knob clockwise.
In the mastering mode, you cannot monitor the play-
back sound of other tracks even if you move up the
faders.
Use the [CURSOR / ] key to highlight the parameter
value to be edited, and use the [JOG] dial to select the
desired value.
You can monitor the tailored sound of Tracks 7/8 in
realtime.
<Hint>
When any parameter value is changed from the
initial setting, "E" appears on the right of the preset
entry name (as shown below), showing that the cur-
rent setting is different from the initial setting.
On/off of the mastering processing
To switch on or off the mastering processing, use the
[CURSOR
/ ] key to highlight the ON/OFF icon as
shown below, and use the [JOG] dial to select "ON" or
"OFF".
When "ON" is selected, the tailored sound is output.
When "OFF" is selected, the original sound is output.
Recording onto the master recorder
Stand by the master recorder for recording, and start
playback of the VF80.
You have to adjust the recording level now.
When the recording signal is digitally transferred from
the VF80 to the recorder, because a digital recorder usu-
ally does not provide the function for controlling the
digital input level, you must adjust the recording level
by controlling the stereo output level of the VF80 us-
ing the [MASTER] fader.
After setting the recording level, return the VF80 to the
beginning of the program.
Start recording of the master recorder and then start
playback of the VF80.
The stereo output (L and R) signals are recorded onto
the master recorder.
After finishing recording, stop the both machines.
<Hint>
When you record VF80 audio onto a digital master
recorder via the S/P DIF digital signal, if the copy
protection ("Cp Protect") is set to "ON", you can limit
the digital copy from the master to another recorder.
If you do not want to make digital copies freely from
the master, set the copy protection to "ON."
Mastering library details
The mastering library provides 10 preset entries
which can only be used in the mastering mode.
When applying mastering processing to the sound,
you can use a desired preset as a starting point of your
setting.
The following table shows the initial settings of EQ,
reverb and compressor parameters, as well as the
major usage for each preset.
