Roland VS-880EX - Manual (Page 183)

Recording with Compu Mix
1. Prepare the VS-880EX’s mixer settings (faders,
pan, etc.) and ready for playback the song.
2. Put the MIDI sequencer in Record mode, and
begin playback with the VS-880EX.
3. When playback begins, immediately hold down
[SHIFT] and press [SCENE].
The mixer’s initial condition is transmitted from the
MIDI OUT connector.
4. As you listen to the song, make adjustments to the
faders and other controls as needed.
5. When playback of the song is finished, stop the
MIDI sequencer and the VS-880EX.
This completes the recording with Compu Mix. Save
the MIDI song data to a floppy disk or other storage
media. When you go back to the beginning of the
MIDI song data and the VS-880EX song, and then
begin playback on the VS-880EX, the mixer is con-
trolled according to the Compu Mix while the song is
played back.
To Have the Fader Movements
Ignored
When playing back songs using Compu Mix, may be
you want the actual volume levels to remain
unchanged even when the faders on the top panel are
moved. In such instances, use the following proce-
dure.
1. Press [SYSTEM] several times until “SYS MIDI
PRM ?” appears in the display.
2. Press [YES].
3. Press [PARAMETER [ ] several times until
“MID:CtrLocal=” appears in the display.
4. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.
CtrLocal (Control Local Switch)
When this is set to “Off,” actual volume levels remain
unchanged even when the faders on the top panel are
moved (fader movements have no effect). Normally,
this is set to “On.” At this time, set the Control Local
switch to “Off.”
4. Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)].
Return to Play condition.
