Using V-LINK to Control Video Equipment
V-LINK (
)is a function that allows you to perform music and video together. By using a V-LINK compatible video device, you can easily
enjoy a variety of video effects that are linked with your performance.
For example, by using the VR-700 in conjunction with the EDIROL Visual Sampler P-10, you can do the following things.
Use the VR-700’s keys (the leftmost octave) to switch images.
Use the VR-700’s bend lever to control the image playback speed.
Use the VR-700’s D Beam controller to control the brightness or hue of the image.
* In order to take advantage of V-LINK between the VR-700 and the P-10, you’ll need to make connections using MIDI cables (sold separately).

This example explains connections with the EDIROL P-10.

MIDI IN connector.
* When making connections, you must first minimize the volume on all devices

receive channel of your video device.
