21—Using the Phrase Pads

When the VS-2480’s Phrase Pad feature is activated, you can use each of the VS-2480’s
24 TRACK STATUS/PHRASE PAD buttons as a performance device that lets you play a
phrase from its corresponding track.

You can record your performance into the VS-2480’s phrase sequencer—once you’ve
recorded a phrase sequence, you can play it back side-by-side with your tracks. You can
also bounce your sequenced performance onto tracks in the current project.

For the sake of clarity, when we refer to phrase sequencer tracks, we’ll call them
“sequencer tracks.”

The TRACK STATUS/PHRASE PAD buttons and the CH EDIT/SELECT/PHRASE SEQ
STATUS/AUTOMIX STATUS buttons play important roles when you’re working with
the phrase pads and sequencer. In this context, we’ll refer to these buttons as the
“PHRASE PAD” buttons and the “PHRASE SEQ STATUS” buttons.

To get the best response from its phrase pad, trim any extra space from the front of each
phrase you’ll be using to ensure that the phrase plays immediately when you strike its
pad. See “TRIM IN” on Page 257.
