MASTER Bus Insert Effects
Where Effects are Inserted
MASTER bus insert effects are inserted onto the MASTER bus just before its final level
control—the MASTER fader. Use an insert effect on the MASTER bus if an entire mix
needs a particular type of processing.
When you master your final mix in preparation for burning an audio CD or for transfer
to a computer or other external digital audio device, you can apply an insert effect to
the whole mix from within the VS-2480’s Mastering Room. The VS-2480 offers a large
collection of Mastering Tool Kit (“MTK”) effect patches designed for just this purpose:
to apply the finishing touches to a great mix.
Inserting Effects on the MASTER Bus
1. While holding down SHIFT, press TR 1-16•MASTER EDIT.
2. Press F2 (FXIns)—the MASTER EFFECT INSERT appears.
The MASTER EFFECT INSERT screen operates in much the same way as the input and
track channels’ EFFECT INSERT screen, though it’s a bit simpler: only one insert
routing is needed for each effect since a MASTER bus insert effect always uses both
sides of its processor.
3. Select the desired effect’s insert assign switch and select:
OFF
—so that the effect is not inserted on the
MASTER bus.
Ins
—to insert the effect on the MASTER bus.
4. As necessary, use the insert effect’s Snd and Rtn controls
to adjust the level of the signal coming into the insert
effect or out of it, respectively.
5. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 for any other effects you want to
insert on the MASTER bus.
6. Once you’ve set up your insert effects, select the desired
effect patch for each—see “Selecting Effect Patches” on
Page 221.
If your VS-2480 is connected to Roland DS-90A or DS-50A monitors (Page 75), you can
insert a Speaker Modeling effect patch on the MASTER bus—see Page 225 for details.
