15—Aux Busses and Direct Paths
Aux Bus/Direct Path Strategy
Sending Signals to Internal Effects
As shipped from the factory, Aux Busses 1-4 are routed to the VS-2400CD's internal
effects so that you can send multiple input, track or FX return channel signals to any
internal effect. However, if you just want to send one signal to an effect—thus freeing
up an Aux bus—you can send it to the effect on a Direct path.
Routing Aux and Direct Paths to Internal Effects
1. Press EZ ROUTING.
2. If "EFFECT" doesn't appear above F4, press PAGE until it does.
3. Press F4 (EFFECT). The LOOP EFFECT ASSIGN screen appears.
4. Press
If the VS8F-2 card required for an effect processor hasn't been installed in your
VS-2400CD, the screen shows "No FX Board" for that effect.
5. Turn the Time/Value dial to select the Aux or Direct path you want to use for
You can change the factory default assignments of Aux Busses 1-4 to Effects 1-4 if some
other arrangement is more convenient for you.
You can route the same Aux or Direct path to multiple effects in order to save busses.
While those effects will all have the same input levels, you can adjust each effect's
output level to create the desired balance between the effects.
Sending Signals to External Devices
Both Aux and Direct paths can carry signals to the VS-2400CD's outputs on their way to
an external device. Here again, any time you're sending a single signal, use a Direct
path so as not to use up your more-powerful Aux busses.
Sending Signals to Tracks
If you wish to, you can route Aux and Direct paths directly to VS-2400CD hard disk
recorder tracks. With Aux busses, you can use the same Quick Routing method you use
for input channel signals (Page 166). You can also use EZ Routing (Chapter 22) to route
both Aux and Direct paths to tracks.
