Converting VS-880EX Song Data for
Use with the VS-880 (Song Export)
You can convert the current song for use with a VS-
880 and copy it as a new songs to a Zip drive connect-
ed to the VS-880EX's SCSI connector. This is referred
to as Song Export.
• All song data, including mixer settings such as
equalizer and Stereo Link, system settings such as
sync tracks and Tempo Maps, locate and mark
points, effects settings, and so on are copied.
• Song data in the V-track bank A (Tracks 1–8, V-
tracks 1–8) is Song Exported. Please copy the data in
the V-track bank B to the V-track bank A before-
hand, by using Track Exchange. (P. 92)
• The sample rate and recording mode of the newly
created song will be the same as the original song.
• If there is insufficient free space on the conversion
destination drive, Song Export cannot be carried
out.
