How Do I Set CD Markers?
When writing multiple songs to the CD at once, it is
important that CD markers are created at the beginning
of each song. Otherwise, your audio will be combined
into one long song on the CD. The VS-1680 automati-
cally creates the first CD marker at 00h00m00s00f. You
will need to create CD markers for any additional songs.
Use the following procedure to create CD markers:
1) Locate the VS-1680 to the point where the audio
for your second song begins.
2) Hold PLAY/DISPLAY and press TAP.
3) Locate the VS-1680 to the beginning of the third song.
4) Hold PLAY/DISPLAY and press TAP.
5) Continue this procedure for any additional songs.
Why Does my CD Sound Different than the VS-1680?
If the songs on the CD you burn sounds drastically dif-
ferent than they do when played on the VS-1680,
remember that mixer settings such as fader level,
effects, and EQ do not translate to the CD. Use the fol-
lowing procedure to listen to your song as it will be
recorded to the CD:
1) Solo the tracks that you have selected as the left
and right CD tracks.
2) Press the FADER/MUTE button so that TR is lit
and set the faders for the selected tracks to 0dB
(the bold line approximately two-thirds of the way up).
