11—Input and Track Channel Tools
Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 155
frequently in situations with multiple mics placed close together, as when a drum kit is
being recorded. To fix this, change the PHASE switch value from Nrm (“Normal”) to
Inv (for “Invert”) to reverse the timing, or “phase,” of one or more of the signals until
their sound waves agree and the problem is resolved.
15. GROUP
The VS-2480 provides 16 fader groups, each of which lets you to simultaneously
control the level of a group of input, track and/or FX return channels while maintaining
the volume differences between them. This can be extremely helpful if you’re happy
with the way a group of signals work together, but you need to make all of them louder
or softer. Rather than having to individually adjust each channel’s level, you can assign
them to a fader group and move a single fader to raise or lower their levels as one unit,
preserving the delicate balance you’ve established between them.
To Assign Channels to a Fader Group:
1. Set the individual channels’ levels as desired.
2. Press CH EDIT for the first channel you want to add to the group and navigate to its
CH EDIT VIEW screen if necessary.
3. Set GROUP to the number of the fader group you want to use, from 1 to 16.
4. Repeat Steps 2-4 for the other channels you want to include in the group, using the
same number in Step 3 for each of the channels.
Once the channels have been grouped, you can move any of their faders to
simultaneously raise or lower the levels of all of the group’s channels.
To remove a channel from a group, set its GROUP parameter to OFF.
16. F.LINK
The F.LINK (for “Fader Link”) on/off switch lets you link the faders of odd/even
channel pairs. If the current channel is:
•
odd-numbered
—its fader is linked with that of the even-numbered channel to its
right.
•
even-numbered
—its fader is linked with that of the odd-numbered channel to its left.
When two channels’ faders are linked, you can move either fader to control the output
level of both channels simultaneously. This can be handy when you want to
simultaneously adjust the levels of two related channels.
You can change the level of a channel in a fader group without affecting the group’s
other channels by holding down CLEAR and moving its fader to the desired position.
When you release the CLEAR button, the channel is returned to fader group control.
When you link two channels’ faders, the VS-2480 automatically sets them both to 0dB,
or to their last linked setting. When you un-link the faders, the faders are reset to 0dB.
When two channels are linked, their FADER parameter changes in appearance and
behaves differently. See Page 154.
The F.LINK parameter differs from the ChLink parameter in that it only links the
channels’ faders. All of their other parameters remain independent of each other.
