The Power of V-Tracks
Although the VS-2480 is a 24-track studio, in a very real sense it’s way more than that.
Since each of its 24 tracks can play any of 16 V-Tracks, a project can actually hold as
many as
384
recordings from which you can choose 24 for playback at any given time.
As you can see, this gives you with a
huge
sonic palette to work with. You can even
construct totally different versions of a project from its massive collection of V-Tracks.
Track Editing Basics
The following sections provide just a brief introduction to the editing of tracks in the
VS-2480. We’ll discuss it in detail beginning in Chapter 18, which starts on Page 235.
There are two basic ways you can edit the contents of a track:
• You can work with phrases (Page 87).
• You can work on a specific time “region” within a track.
About Editing Phrases
Phrase editing is the quickest way to work with a track’s audio, since it works with pre-
defined chunks of the track. You can perform a range of operations on a phrase—these
are detailed in Chapter 19.
You may also find it handy to manually divide the phrases on a V-Track into new
convenient, easy-to-work-with chunks. Though this can take a little time, it can save
you a
lot
of time later on in the editing process:
• If you’re working on a song, and think you’ll be moving a track’s sections around,
you can turn each section into a phrase. This’ll let you simply grab the desired
phrase when it’s time to assemble the track.
• If you’re using sound effects, you can turn each one into a separate phrase, making
the positioning of your elements quick and easy.
During editing operations, the word “track” serves as a shorthand for the currently
selected V-Track. When we say we’re editing a track, what we literally mean is that
we’re editing the audio on the track’s currently selected V-Track.
The phrase DIVIDE operation can automatically separate your audio into separate
phrases, as described on Page 260.
On the VS-2480, you can also play phrases using the TRACK STATUS/PHRASE PAD
buttons.
