Recording
1. Locate the time to start recording on the VF-16.
2. Press the [PLAY] key while the [RECORD] key is
depressed to start recording.
The [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key and [RECORD] key of ch1
lights up RED, indicating that recording is taking place.
3. Press the [STOP] key when recording is completed, to
stop the VF-16.
"Please Wait" will appear on the LCD, then return to the
Normal Display.
Tips: UNDO/REDO
By pressing the [UNDO/REDO] key after recording, the
recording is undone and the track returns to the pre-REC
state where there is no recording (UNDO). By pressing
the [UNDO/REDO] key again, the recording on track is
redone to the post-REC state (REDO).
Play
1. Locate the time in which recording was started (REC start
time).
2. Press the [PLAY] key to check the sound recorded.
The ch1 fader can be used to adjust the play level.
The signals recorded on track 1 can be checked.
Recording 8 INPUTs to Tracks 7 and 8
Here we will record all 8 sound sources connected to inputs A to H to tracks 7 and 8 of the recorder.
Preparing to Record
1. Connect to the [INPUT] jack the sound source to record.
2. Press the [INPUT SEL] key.
3. Press the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of ch9-16 to switch
ch 9-16 to "INPUT".
Ch9-16 is ready to start signals of input A to H.
If input signals are started for ch9-16 faders, the play
sounds of the corresponding track can no longer be heard
and you cannot go to the READY (REC) state.
4. Press the [BUSS-SOURCE] key. (GREEN: Flashing)
5. Press the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of ch 9-16. (ORANGE:
Flashing)
Signals of input A to H can now be sent to REC BUSS.
6. Press the [BUSS-REC TRK] key (RED: Flashing).
7. Press the [CH STATUS/CH SEL] key of ch7 and 8 (RED:
Flashing).
Track 7 and 8 will proceed to the "READY" state.
8. Press the [EXIT/NO] key to return to the Normal Display.
Tips: Adjusting the PAN Setting of the Source Channel
When recording on one track with the BUSS RECORD op-
tion, the PAN setting of the source channel is either fixed
to the left or right.
If the REC track is an odd number, the source channel
PAN is fixed all the way to the left. If the REC track is an
even number, the source channel PAN is fixed all the way
to the right. The source channel PAN can be optionally
set ONLY when there are two REC tracks set.
These procedures complete the instructions to record
to track 1 with the BUSS recording option.
