Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 27
1—Welcome
Congratulations on the purchase of your Roland VS-2480 Digital Studio Workstation.
The VS-2480 will allow you to take your music—or any other kind of sound—from the
first spark of inspiration to completed recording.
Although the VS-2480 is designed to be simple to operate, the sheer number of tools it
provides do require some introduction and explanation. That’s what the
VS-2480
Owner’s Manual
is for. Of course, what you do with these tools is up to you and your
imagination.
If you’ve purchased a VS8F-2 Effect Board, MB-24 Meter Bridge, VS-CDRII/CD-RACK
or VE-7000 for your VS-2480—or would like to attach a Zip® drive—you may want see
Chapter 29, beginning on Page 379 before reading the
Owner’s Manual
.
Your VS-2480 is an extremely reliable device. However, there’s no guarantee against
data loss due to improper use of the VS-2480 or unforeseen events. Roland Corporation
assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
About this Manual
How the
VS-2480 Owner’s Manual
is Organized
The
VS-2480 Owner’s Manual
explains the VS-2480 ‘s architecture, features, operations
and settings. It also provides application suggestions and presents step-by-step
procedures. To get the most from your VS-2480, we recommend reading the entire
manual. The structure of the manual generally reflects the order in which a typical
signal flows through the VS-2480, with extra explanations for beginners at the front.
If you’d like to get to work immediately, you may first want to:
•
set the VS-2480’s internal clock and calendar
—The VS-2480 time-stamps each
recording to make it easy for you to keep track of your work. See Page 65 for
instructions.
•
connect a mouse, ASCII keyboard and VGA monitor
—See Page 64 for more information.
Here’s where you’ll find some instructions that describe how to perform some basic
operations:
•
“Creating a New Project”
—Page 98
•
“Recording a New Track”
—Page 179
•
“Backing Up a Project”
—Page 106
•
“Inserting Effects on an Input or Track Channel”
—Page 217
•
“Setting Up an Internal Loop Effect”
—Page 213
•
“Mixing”
—Page 202
These procedures will get you up and running, but, of course, they’re no substitute for
actually reading the manual and really learning how the VS-2480’s features work.
