Cd Capture; To Capture Audio From An Audio Cd - Roland VS-2480 Owner's Manual Addendum

2—Version Two Enhancements

CD Capture

With Version Two, the VS-2480 can capture audio directly from an audio CD into a
project that has a sample rate of 44.1kHz, the same sample rate as audio CDs—see
Owner's Manual Page 96 to learn about project sample rates. You can capture an entire
audio selection from a CD or a portion of a selection.
The CD Capture feature requires a CD-RW drive. VS-2480CD owners have a drive
built-in. For the VS-2480, an optional Roland-approved CD-RW drive is required.
