Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 371
Each instrument has its own horizontal line of quarter notes. To make an instrument
sound one of its quarter notes, cursor to the quarter note and turn the TIME/VALUE
dial clockwise so that a black ball appears. To silence the note, turn the TIME/VALUE
dial the other way to remove the black ball. For the hi-hat, dial in the black ball for a
closed hi-hat sound, or an empty circle for an open hi-hat sound.
The CURRENT TEMPO MAP settings show the tempo and time signature of the tempo
map at the timeline’s position when you first enter the beat box screen—the map
number isn’t updated when you stop and start playback while on the beat box’s screen.
Selecting, unselecting and re-selecting either the tempo or time signature parameter
causes the tempo map settings to be updated to reflect the tempo map settings at the
timeline’s current position.
Sending the Metronome to Outputs
1. On the metronome’s screen, set METRONOME OUT to INT.
2. Set its level, mode and sound as desired.
3. Press F6 (EXIT).
4. Press PAGE once.
5. Press F4 (OscAna)—the GENERATOR/OSCILLATOR screen appears.
6. Set the SOURCE parameter to METRONOME.
7. Set Sw, just above SOURCE, to On.
With these settings, the generator produces the metronome’s output signal. As you
can see, the generator has its own set of CH EDIT-like parameters (Page 150) with
which you can send the metronome to an Aux bus feeding a headphone mix, to the
MASTER mix, or to a Direct bus routed to a VS-2480 output.
AUTO PUNCH/LOOP
The AUTOPUNCH/LOOP screen provides parameters for setting
Auto Punch and Loop start and stop times. To learn about using its
parameters for:
Auto Punch
—see “Editing Auto Punch IN and OUT Points Manually” on Page 193.
Loop
—see “Editing Loop FROM and TO Points Manually” on Page 182.
MARKER
Learn how to use the UTILITY menu’s MARKER screen in “Editing
Markers” on Page 190.
LOCATE
The LOCATE screen is described in “Editing Locators” on Page 186.
Changing the tempo or time signature on the METRONOME DRUM PATTERN EDIT
screen changes it in the tempo map as well, so be careful about any changes you make
to these settings if you’re using the Tempo Map feature for other purposes.
When the generator is producing the metronome’s sound, the metronome is no longer
routed directly to the MONITOR bus.
