Chapter 10. About V-LINK
V-LINK ( ) is functionality promoted by Roland that allows linked performance of music and
visual material. By using V-LINK-compatible video equipment (such as the Edirol DV-7PR or P-1), visual effects
can be easily linked to, and made part of the expressive elements of a performance.
For example, when the SP-606 is used in conjunction with the Edirol P-1, applications such as the following are
made possible:
• Use the SP-606’s sequencer to play music and show images in synchronization.
• Use the SP-606’s pads or sequencer playback (song or pattern) to switch photos or pages on the Edirol P-1.
In order to use V-LINK between the SP-606 and the Edirol P-1, you will need to connect the two
units using a MIDI cable (sold separately).
Use a MIDI cable to connect the SP-606’s MIDI OUT connector to the MIDI IN connector of the Edirol P-1.
To prevent malfunction and/or speaker damage, you must turn down the volume on all devices
and turn off their power before making connections.
1. Go to the Play screen (p. 15).
2. Press [V-LINK] so it’s lit.
The V-LINK screen will appear.
In this state, you can operate the SP-606’s pads or knobs to control images
in conjunction with the SP-606’s performance.
When you press [F1] (RESET), the display will indicate “Send All Reset”;
the effects being applied to the image will be reset, and settings such as
brightness and hue will all return to their default settings.
When you press [F2] (MODE), you can select whether the pads will
switch
PALETTES or CLIPS .
When you press [F3] (SETUP), the V-LINK SETUP screen will appear (p. 76).
3. Press [EXIT].
The V-LINK function will remain on, and you will return to the Play screen.
4. When you are ready to turn off the V-LINK function, press [V-LINK] so its illumination is turned off.
If you returned to the Play screen in step 3, press [V-LINK] to return to the V-LINK screen and then press [V-
LINK] once again so its illumination is turned off.
The V-LINK function will always be off when you turn on the power.
