Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 237
Therefore, as a convenience:
• when you select a phrase, the VS-2480 automatically places the FROM point at the
beginning of the phrase. If you select multiple phrases, FROM is placed at the front
of the first phrase you select.
• when you place an IN point to define the beginning of a region, the VS-2480
automatically sets FROM to the same location. If you select multiple regions,
FROM is placed at the front of the first region you select.
If you set FROM at an event within a phrase or region, you can use the event’s target
location as a way to position the entire phrase or region.
For example, when:
• you’re copying a one-measure drum loop and can’t find the exact start of the downbeat
—
Place FROM at an easily identified, loud, repeated event, such as a snare drum hit
on the second beat. Place TO at the second beat of the destination measure. When
you copy the loop, the snare—along with the rest of the loop—lands in the pocket.
•
you’re moving a music cue with a passage that has to occur at a specific time
—Place
FROM at the beginning of the passage. Place TO where you want the passage to
start. Move the entire cue and the passage lands in exactly the right place.

The Appearance of Selected Tracks, Phrases and Regions
Depending on the method you use to select a phrase or region in the playlist—we’ll
describe these methods later in this chapter—the process can have two steps:
1. Select the track on which the desired phrase or region resides.
2. Select the phrase or region.
When a track, phrase or region is selected, its appearance changes. When a track is
selected, a triangle appears to its left and the track turns white.
You can manually reset FROM to any location you desire using the methods described
later in this chapter.
FROM and TO also make it easy to accurately position sound effects you’ve recorded or
imported.
