Roland Vs-880 - Manual (Page 20)

About “!!! Lack of EVENT !!” display
Ò!!! Lack of EVENT !!Ó will be appeared in the display in the
following cases, and you cannot continue the current opera-
tion.
¥ If you push [SCENE]+[REC] buttons to record
AutoMix data in realtime , when the remaining num-
ber of EVENT is less than 1000 .
¥ If you try to UNDO or REDO when the remaining
number of Event is less than 200 .
The smallest unit of memory used by the VS-880 to store
recorded results on disk are the
events . A newly created
song provides approximately 12,000 events per song.
For each track, one recording pass uses two events.
Operations such as punch-in/out or track copy also use up
events. The number of events that are used up will fluctuate
in a complex way. For example, auto mix uses up five
events for each mark point.
When you do a lot of recording, editing (Track Copy, Track
Move) or record AutoMix of long period, please check the
remaining number of Events frequently. Procedure is as fol-
lows.
1. Press [SYSTEM] several times until “SYS System
PRM?” appears.
2. Press [YES].
3. Press PARAMETER [ ] several times until “SYS
RemainDsp=” appears.
4. Select “Event” with TIME/VALUE dial.
Remaining number of Events can be saved with the follow-
ing procedures. Please try the most appropriate one with
your situation.
• Execute Song Store (Owner's manual p.74)
Please Execute Song Store if in UNDO condition
([UNDO] indicator is lit.). Events served for REDO will be
released. But please note that you cannot cancel (REDO)
the last UNDO if you once execute STORE.
• Execute Song Optimize (Owner's manual p.113)
Please execute Song Optimize if you have done a lot of
Punch In recording. Events served for unnecessary audio
data will be released. But please note that you can only do
single level UNDO.
• Erace AutoMix data (Owner's manual p.19)
If you have recorded AutoMix data, erase unnecessary
data. Events served for unnecessary AutoMix data will be
released.
