You can control an FX or AUX bus send level directly from the
VS-2000's front panel using the SENDS knob—see Page 167.
About FX and AUX Send Configuration
In the VS-2000, each FX and Aux bus can accept pre-fader signals from all input and
track channels or post-fader signals from the input and track channels—not a mix of
both. An FX or Aux bus can also be linked with its odd/even partner to form a single
stereo send. You can configure an FX or Aux bus on the MASTER EDIT VIEW screen
(Page 206) or from the CH EDIT VIEW screen as described on Page 206.
To learn about pre- and post-fader FX and AUX sends, see "Pre-Fader and Post-Fader
Sends" on Page 89. For more on linking busses, see "Stereo FX and Aux Busses" on
Page 204.
5. ATT
The ATT ("Attenuation") parameter allows you to adjust the level of the
signal coming into the channel. If the signal is clipping or sounds distorted,
you can lower the ATT value by as much as -42.0 dB. If the signal is too soft,
you can raise it by up to 6.0 dB.
The ATT parameter can be particularly handy when you're working with a digital input
signal, since its input level is set by the device producing it. You can adjust its input
channel's ATT value to place the signal at a proper level (Page 60).
When you're working with analog input signals, you won't usually need to change the
ATT setting if you've properly set your input levels (Page 134). The same is true if you've
recorded your tracks correctly, as described on Page 60.
6. DYNAMICS
The DYNAMICS section provides an on/off switch that lets you turn
the channel's dynamics tools on or off from the VIEW screen, and
graphically shows you the current dynamics settings. The channel's
dynamics parameters are found on its DYN screen (Page 156).
When the DYNAMICS on/off switch is selected, press the flashing
ENTER/YES button to jump directly to the DYN screen.
You can control a channel's dynamics tools directly from the VS-2000 using the
CH PARAMETERS controls—see Page 167.
Roland VS-2000 Owner's Manual
The Send Status parameter—turns the channel's send to the FX or Aux bus on or off.
You can select:
• Off—so that no signal is sent to the FX or Aux bus from the channel.
• Pre or Pst (depending on the FX or Aux bus's current configuration)—to turn on the
send to the FX or Aux bus from the channel. See below for more details.
The Send Level parameter sets the amount of the channel's signal to be sent to the
FX or Aux bus. The range is from -∞ to 6 dB.
If the FX or Aux bus is configured as one of a linked pair of
busses, its Send Level control changes in appearance and
behavior. It sets the amount of the channel's signal to be sent
to both linked busses. The Send Pan knob that appears
controls the signal's position in the stereo image created by
the two linked FX or Aux busses.
