New effects algorithms
Lmt (Limiter)
This effect limits excessive output levels.
Sw (Switch) Off, On
Turns the limiter on/off.
Thresh (Threshold) -60–0dB
Specifies the level at which the limiter will begin to operate.
Release 0–100
Adjusts the time from when the input level falls below the
threshold level until the limiter no longer has an effect.
Level -60–+24dB
Adjusts the volume level of the sound that has passed
through the limiter.
Effective ways to use
speaker modeling
Speaker modeling can be used effectively when you wish to
audition how your final production (an original audio CD, or
a mixed-down MD or DAT etc.) will sound on a variety of
speakers. Here we will explain how speaker modeling can be
used when producing an audio CD to audition the final
result. Read this section in conjunction with the DS-90
owner’s manual.
1. Digitally connect the VS-1680 V-XPANDED to the DS-90
(coaxial or optical.) Set the DS-90’s input select switch to
the digital input that you are using.
2. Make settings so that the mix bus is output from the
digital output connector you connected in step 1.
2-1. Press [MASTER].
2-2. Press [PAGE] so that the function button indicates
“DOUT1” or “DOUT2.”
2-3. Press [F5 (DOUT1)] (coaxial) or [F6 (DOUT2)]
(optical).
2-4. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select “MST.”
3. Make settings so that the mixdown can be performed
while inserting effects (p. 11).

4. Select the effect that will be inserted. For this example,
select a patch that uses the speaker modeling algorithm.
4-1. Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)].
4-2. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [F4 (EFX B)].
4-3. Press [F1 (EFX3)].
4-4. Press [F2 (Sel)].
4-5. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select a patch.
4-6. Press [F4 (Exec)].
5. Press [PLAY]. Switch patches, and hear the sound as it
would be heard through various speakers.
6. When you are ready to perform the actual mixdown,
turn off the speaker modeling patch that is inserted.
NOTE
If, for example, you are modeling a set of radio-cassette recorder
speakers and perform the mixdown without turning off the inserted
speaker modeling patch, the sound as it would be heard on a radio-
cassette would be recorded to the mixdown tracks. To avoid this,
turn off speaker modeling before you perform the actual mixdown.
7. Select the mixed-down tracks as the tracks for writing,
and create an audio CD (p. 25).
