2—Getting Around
3—MASTER EDIT•LCD↔VGA
Press MASTER EDIT•LCD↔VGA to display the MASTER EDIT VIEW screen
(Page 201, Page 203). When you've connected an external VGA monitor to the VS-
2400CD, hold down SHIFT and press MASTER EDIT•LCD↔VGA to select your main
display. See "The Main Display and the Info Display" on Page 381 for details.
4—LOCATOR•BANK Button
Press the LOCATOR•BANK button so it's lit to store and recall locators using the
numeric keypad (see "10—Numeric keypad" on Page 43). A locator remembers a
particular now line position within a project—when you recall the locator, the now line
instantly jumps back to that time position. Locators are discussed in detail in
"Locators" on Page 179.
Each project can contain up to 100 locators arranged in groups, or "banks," of ten
locators each. To select a locator bank, hold down SHIFT, press LOCATOR•BANK so it's
lit, and press the desired bank's number on the numeric keypad.
5—SCENE•BANK Button
Press the SCENE•BANK button so it's lit to store and recall scenes using the numeric
keypad (see "10—Numeric keypad" on Page 43). A scene stores your current mixer
settings, allowing you to save different versions of your project for instant recall. Scenes
are discussed in detail in "Scenes" on Page 139.
Each project can contain up to 100 scenes in groups, or "banks," of ten scenes each. To
select a scene bank, hold down SHIFT, press SCENE•BANK so it's lit, and press the
desired bank's number on the numeric keypad.
6—FADER ASSIGN Button
When you press the FADER ASSIGN button so that it flashes, you can press a number
on the numeric keypad to assign the faders to the job of sending signals from the
individual channel strips (Page 35) to the corresponding Aux bus. In addition, you can
press 9•USER to assign them to another setting of your choice. See Page 136.
7—NUMERICS•EXT SYNC Button
Press NUMERICS so that it lights to enter numeric values for various settings using the
VS-2400CD's keypad or a connected ASCII keyboard. When NUMERICS is lit, the area
into which you can type becomes selected on the display. See Page 72.
Hold down SHIFT and press NUMERICS•EXT SYNC so that it lights to synchronize
the VS-2400CD's playback to an external MTC-generating device. Press it again so that
it's not lit when you want the VS-2400CD itself to provide the master timing reference
(this is the VS-2400CD's normal operating mode). Synchronization is described in
Chapter 23.
