10—Using the Digital Mixer
144 www.rolandus.com Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual
Scenes
The VS-2480 allows you to save a wide range of current mixer settings as a “scene.” Each
project can contain up to 100 scenes. A scene contains all of your current:
• channel fader positions • channel parameter settings
• MASTER level settings • signal routings • effect settings
When you save your settings as a scene, you “store” the scene. When you re-install its
settings, you “recall” the scene. You can recall a scene at any time a project isn’t playing.
You can name each scene to help you remember what it contains, and protect
individual channels from having their settings changed when a scene is recalled.
Since so much time in any studio is spent setting up and adjusting your settings, scenes
are incredibly convenient, allowing you to try out and save alternate versions of a setup
or mix. In addition, since a scene includes the V. Track CH EDIT parameter that
determines the audio each track is to play, you can actually create and store different
versions of a project, containing different elements—vocal and instrumental
performances, different solos, and so on—that can be recalled instantly.
Scenes are stored in sets called “scene banks,” with each bank containing ten scenes,
numbered from 0 to 9. You can also name each scene to help you identify it.
Basic Scene Operations
You can quickly and easily store and recall scenes using the VS-2480’s
numeric keypad when its SCENE•BANK button is lit to show you’re in
Scene mode.
Storing a Scene
1. Press SCENE•BANK if it’s not already lit.
Each scene is stored in a numbered location from 0 to 9, corresponding to the 0-9
buttons on the numeric keypad. When a scene has been stored in a location, the
corresponding number button is lit on the keypad.
2. Press any 0-9 button on the keypad to store the scene in the corresponding location.
If you’d like to store the scene in a different scene bank, follow the instructions in
“Changing Scene Banks” and press its button in the selected bank.
3. If a location already contains a scene, and you’d like to store a new scene in its
place, you’ll have to clear the older scene first. See “Clearing a Scene” on Page 145.
Scenes don’t store your listening levels. Before recalling a scene, make sure that your
MONITOR—and PHONES 1 and/or 2—knobs are set to levels that won’t result in any
nasty surprises. Use these knobs to adjust your listening level after recalling the scene.
Scenes can be stored and recalled only when a project isn’t currently playing.
You can also perform these tasks from the UTILITY menu (Page 145).
You can use the Scene feature’s Safe mode, and perform scene operations more
carefully and slowly from a list in the SCENE window. See Page 146.
