Chapter 3: Recording Applications
Probably the most common recording you will do is a single instrument or microphone directly to a single
track of the VS-880. Our example records a synthesizer as a piano track on the VS-880.
You will need to connect your synthesizer to the VS-880 Input # 1, select Tr. 1-1 for recording, correctly
adjust the volume, then finally record the instrument to Tr. 1-1.
ACTION: Record A Single Piano Track From A Synthesizer
1. Connect the output of your synthesizer to the VS-880 - Input #1
2. Play the keyboard as loud as you will during the performance and turn the [INPUT SENS 1]
knob clockwise until the PEAK light turns red, then turn it slightly counterclockwise until
the red peak LED goes off. (The read peak LED should only come on occasionally during the
loudest point of your performance.)
3. If mixer mode INPUT>TRACK is not selected (LED is off), hold the [SHIFT] button and
press the [SELECT] button under the MIXER MODE label repeatedly until the
INPUT>TRACK mode is selected (LED is on).
4. Press the [CH EDIT] button 1 to select channel 1.
5. Hold [SHIFT], then press the INPUT/BUSS (CH EDIT 1 button).
6. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial to select CH 1 Input = INPUT - 1. (this is the normal default
setting unless you have changed it).
7. Press the [STATUS] button of channel 1 until it flashes red. This selects track one to record
ready mode.
8. Raise the [FADER] on the channel 1 to listen to the keyboard.
The fader controls what you hear, it will not affect the recording level.
9. Press the [ZERO] button to return the VS-880 to time location 00:00.
10. Press the [REC] button. The red light will flash.
11. Press the [PLAY] button to begin recording the keyboard track.
