14—Working with Track Channels
Roland VS-2480 Owner’s Manual www.rolandus.com 201
Rehearse the bounce by playing the project a few times, blending together the track
channels you’re bouncing. Use each source track channel’s CH EDIT screens to make
any desired changes to its sound. Adjust its EQ or dynamics processing values as
needed. If you’re bouncing in stereo, pan the source tracks as you want them to be
placed in the final mix. Make any changes you want to make while you still have
individual control of each track channel’s signal—once they’re combined in the bounce,
they’re all locked together. Add any effect you want to use by routing the effect
processor’s output to the destination tracks, and by sending the desired tracks to the
effect using their track channel CH EDIT Aux Send controls (Page 152).
Setting the Overall Bounce Level
As you blend your source track channels in the bounce, make sure their combined level
is suitable for recording. You can do this by keeping your eye on the level meter for the
destination track or linked track. You’ll find this meter on the Home screen:
1. Press HOME•Display.
2. If necessary, press PAGE until “TR Mix” appears above F3.
3. Press F3 (TR Mix).
If you’ve got the bounce mix the way you want it but the overall level is too loud, lower
the value of the REC ATT (“Record Attenuate”) parameter:
1. Press EZ ROUTING.
2. If “OUTPUT” doesn’t appear above F3, press PAGE until it does.
3. Press F3 (OUTPUT).
4. Adjust the REC ATT value as necessary.
Performing the Bounce
Once you’ve complete the procedures described in the previous section, you’re ready
to actually perform the bounce. Since your destination track or linked tracks are
already armed for recording, all you have to do is:
1. Press ZERO to return to the beginning of the project. If you’re only bouncing a
section of the project, navigate to a location shortly before that section.
2. Press REC.
3. Press PLAY—the bounce is recorded on the destination track or linked tracks.
4. When the bounce is finished, press STOP.
5. Hold down STOP and press the TRACK STATUS button for the destination track or
either TRACK STATUS button for linked destination tracks. The TRACK STATUS
button(s) for the destination track or linked tracks turns green.
6. Turn off the TRACK STATUS buttons for the tracks you’ve bounced so you don’t
hear them along with the destination track or linked tracks as you listen back.
7. Play back the bounce to make sure it’s satisfactory.
8. If you need to perform the bounce again, hold down REC and press the destination
track’s TRACK STATUS button so that it flashes red. With linked tracks, press
either one’s TRACK STATUS button. This re-arms the track(s) for recording.
9. Repeat Steps 1-6.
You can use Automix when you bounce. This is handy if you need to make a lot changes
to your source track channel settings during the course of the bounce. See Chapter 26.
REC ATT sets your listening level when directly monitoring the VS-2480’s 16 recording
busses. It has no effect on bouncing levels.
