If You’re Using DS-Series Monitors
If you’re using Roland DS-series Digital Reference Monitors, you’ll need to route the
MONITOR bus to the digital output to which you’re connecting the monitors. (In the
factory demo songs, this has already been taken care of.) When you create a new
project, however, the MASTER stereo mix, not the stereo MONITOR bus, is routed to
the COAXIAL OUT connector.)
Setting Up for Roland’s DS-Series Digital Monitors
1. Press EZ ROUTING.
2. Press F3 (OUTPUT). The OUTPUT ASSIGN screen appears. On this screen, you
can change the signal routed to each output jack and connector.
3. Press
until D. OUT is selected in the top row as in this screenshot:
The thick black line—think of it as a virtual cable—shows that the MASTER mix
(MASTL/R) is routed to the digital output (D.OUT).
4. Turn the Time/Value dial clockwise so that “cable” connects MONL/R to the D.OUT
connector—”MONL/R” stands for “MONITOR Left/Right.”
Adjusting Your Listening Level
If you’re listening to the VS-2000 through monitor speakers, the MONITOR
knob to the left of the display sets your listening level. You’ll generally want
to keep this at the 0dB position (3 o’clock). Of course, you can always turn
the MONITOR knob to raise or lower the listening level as needed—the 0dB
position serves as a good starting point. Adjust your DS-series INPUT
LEVEL or monitor-speaker amplifier level settings so that the
VS-2000 is producing sound at a desirable level.
Along the left
edge of the
screen, you see all
of the VS-2000’s
busses and the
Direct paths
(Page 58).
All VS-2000 output
jacks and
connectors.
Each bus runs from left
to right across the
display. When you
select an output and
turn the Time/Value
dial, a connection box
moves down the
screen to reach the
desired bus.
If you prefer, you can drag the
output’s connection box down
to MONL/R using your mouse.
