< What is an event? >
The smallest unit of memory used by the VS-880 to store
recorded results on disk is the
event. A newly created
song provides approximately 12,000 events per song.
For each track, one recording pass uses two events.
Operations such as punch-in/out or track copy also use
up events. The number of events that are used up will
fluctuate in a complex way. For example, auto mix uses
up five events for each mark point.
Even if there is capacity remaining on the disk, further
recording or track editing will not be possible if all of the
events are used up. In such cases, an error message such
as ÒEvent Mem FullÓ will appear (p.134).
