What do the X and Y Parameters do?
The VS-1680 allows you to zoom in and out on both
the amplitude (level) and time values of the Waveform
display. The default zoom values for amplitude and time
are 1 and 16 respectively. These values work well for
most editing applications. Use the following procedure
to adjust the zoom controls on the Waveform display:
1) Press PLAY/DISPLAY so that the main play screen is
displayed.
2) Use the UP/DOWN CURSOR buttons to select the
track to be viewed in the Waveform display and
advance the song to a point where there is audio
present on that track.
3) Press F5 [WAVE] to view the
Waveform display (Fig. 10).
4) Use the F1 [ZOOM+] and F2
[ZOOM-] buttons to zoom in
and out on the amplitude (level)
portion of the display (vertical).
5) Use the F3 [←→] and F4 [→ ←]
buttons to zoom in and out on
the time portion of the display
(horizontal).
6) Press F5 [WAVE] when you are finished to close the
Waveform display.
Recording a stereo signal is nearly identical to recording
a mono signal with the exception that you will need to
use two inputs and two tracks. The easiest way to
record a stereo signal is to link the source (inputs and/or
tracks) and the destination tracks. Tracks 9-16 are set
up from the factory as stereo linked tracks so, if you are
recording to these tracks, all you will need to do is to
link the source inputs (or tracks). Use the following pro-
cedure to link tracks 3 and 4:
1) Press the Track 3 SELECT button.
2) Use the CURSOR buttons to highlight the Link
icon.
3) Use the TIME/VALUE dial to select ON.
4) Press PLAY/DISPLAY to return to the main play
screen. You can now use the Track 3 fader to con
trol the volume of tracks 3 and 4.
