Roland VS-880EX Musical Instrument User Manual


 
The VS-880EX has the following buses.
RECORDING Bus:
Signals assigned to the RECORDING bus are routed to the recorder section to be
recorded. There are eight channels which can be assigned to the output of the
input mixer, track mixer, and effects (Return). Signals assigned to the RECORD-
ING bus cannot be routed to the MIX bus.
MIX Bus:
Signals assigned to the MIX bus are sent to the MASTER jacks for monitoring. It
has two channels (L and R), and can take output signals from the input mixer,
track mixer, and effects (Return). Signals assigned to the MIX bus cannot be rout-
ed to the RECORDING bus.
EFFECT Bus:
Signals assigned to the EFFECT bus are sent to the effect to apply effects added
to them. It has two channels (FX1, FX2), and can process signals from the input
mixer and the track mixer. Signals assigned to the RECORDING bus as well as
the MIX bus can also be routed to the EFFECT bus.
AUX Bus:
Signals assigned to the AUX bus are routed to the AUX SEND jacks to allow
addition mixes for monitoring. This bus features two channels (AUX A, AUX B),
and can take signals from the input mixer and the track mixer. Signals assigned
to the RECORDING bus as well as the MIX bus can also be routed to the AUX
bus. This is convenient if, for example, you want to connect an external effects
device, or when you want an addition output separate from that of the MASTER
Out jacks (individual out).
