Recording to Other Tracks
(Overdubbing)
In multi-track recording, the normal process is to
record new tracks while listening to the performance
on previously recorded tracks played back. This is
referred to as overdubbing.
1. Select the tracks you want to play back. While
holding down [STOP], press the STATUS buttons
for the tracks you want to play back (i.e., that you
want to hear while overdubbing).
The STATUS indicators light green.
2. Select the tracks to which you want to record.
While holding down [REC], press the STATUS
buttons for the tracks to which you want to
record.
The STATUS indicators blink red.
3. Select the sources to record to the tracks. While
holding down the STATUS buttons for the tracks
you want to record to, press the SELECT buttons
for the input channels whose sources you want
assigned to the tracks.
The SELECT indicators blink.
4. Now you are ready for overdubbing. Follow the
Steps of “Recording to the Tracks” (p. 42), to
record and then check the content.
Recording on V-Track 2
The VS-880EX features 8 tracks, each of which contains
8 auxiliary tracks. These subsidiary tracks are referred

tracks (8 tracks x 8 V-tracks), and each such set is
referred to as a V-track bank.

track bank)) tracks.
