Along with the functions explained in earlier chapters, this chapter explains some actual ways in
which the VS-880 can be used effectively.
Recording multiple sources to one track
Here we will explain how the sources input to INPUT 1Ð3 can be recorded on track 1. This is conve-
nient, for example, when you wish to put up a separate mic for hi-hat, snare and cymbal and record
the sound of the entire drum set onto a single track. In this case, the signal flow will be as follows.
1. Make sure that the mixer mode is INPUT MIX.
2. Press channel 1 [CH EDIT(Input/BUSS)].
3. Use PARAMETER [ ][ ] to make the display read “IN1 BUSS Sw=”.
4. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial. For this example, select “PstFade” so that the channel faders will
adjust the recording level.
BUSS Sw (buss switch)
This selects the way in which the signal is sent to the buss selected by Buss Select. If ÒOffÓ is select-
ed, the BUSS Sel, BUSS Level, and BUSS Pan/BUSS Bal parameters will not be available.
Off: not sent.
PreFade: The signal before passing through the channel fader will be sent to the buss.
PstFade: The signal after passing through the channel fader will be sent to the buss.
5. Press PARAMETER [ ].
The display will indicate ÒIN1 BUSS SelÓ.
6. Select the track(s) on which you wish to record. Here we want to record on track 1, so select
“1-2”.
BUSS Sel (buss select)
This selects the output destination buss (MIX, 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8). The numerals of the value indicate
the REC buss numbers.
