Markers; Placing A Marker - Roland VS-2000 Owner's Manual

13—Operating the Hard Disk Recorder

Markers

You can bookmark up to 1,000 locations in a project using markers. Markers are a great
way to keep track of key moments in a project. You can use them to tag edit points
you've located using the Preview (Page 180) or Scrub (Page 181) features. You can also
use them to re-order the sections of a project using the Region Arrange feature.
Markers can be named and manually edited.
You can see the last marker the now line passed in the current time location display. If
there are no markers in the project, the marker area of the display (Page 130) shows
"—." If the now line hasn't yet reached the first of the project's makers, you see "***."
We recommend using markers to tag the locations of individual project events, and
using locators (Page 182) to memorize where your project's sections are since you can
recall locators more quickly than markers. And with 1,000 markers, you won't use them
all up as quickly as the 100 locators in a project.
When you create an audio CD on the VS-2000 (Chapter 27), you'll place special CD
track markers to identify the selections on the CD.

Placing a Marker

You can place a marker when the project is stopped or when it's playing.
There must be at least 0.1 seconds of time between any two markers.
To Place a Marker
1. Press TAP to place a marker at the now line's current location. The
How Marker Numbers are Assigned
When a marker is placed, it's assigned a number—this number serves as the marker's
name unless you manually edit it (Page 188). A marker's number reflects its position in
a chronological list of all of the markers in a project. If new markers are placed in the
project, any markers that follow them are renumbered to reflect their new, later
position in the marker list.
