2—Getting Around
2—PREVIEW TO•PROJECT TOP Button
Press PREVIEW TO to listen to the last few moments leading up to the current location
of the timeline—you can set how much you want to hear. Hold SHIFT and press
PREVIEW TO to jump to the start, or "top," of the audio recorded in the project.
3—PREVIEW THRU Button
Press PREVIEW THRU to listen to a small chunk of audio leading up to the current
location of the timeline and a small chunk that plays after it, as determined by the
PREVIEW TO and PREVIEW FROM time settings.
4—PREVIEW FROM•PROJECT END Button
Press PREVIEW FROM to listen to what occurs just after the current location of the
timeline—you can set how much you want to hear. Hold SHIFT and press PREVIEW
FROM to jump to the end of the audio recorded in the project.
PREVIEW TO, PREVIEW THRU and PREVIEW FROM work together, and are all
described in detail in "Preview" on Page 183.
5—EXT SYNC Button
Press EXT SYNC so that it lights to synchronize the VS-2480's playback to an external
MTC- or SMPTE-generating device. Press it again so that it's not lit when you want the
VS-2480 itself to provide the master timing reference (this is the VS-2480's normal
operating mode). Synchronization is described in Chapter 24. Hold down SHIFT and
press EXT SYNC to jump to the VS-2480's synchronization settings.

your project to your hard drive.

Press STOP to halt playback at the timeline's current location—see Page 122. Hold
down SHIFT and press STOP•SHUT/EJECT to power down the VS-2480—you'll be
asked if you want to save your project first—and to eject any mounted Zip drive
cartridges.
8—PLAY•RESTART Button
Press PLAY•RESTART to begin playback from the current location of the timeline—see
Page 122. Hold down SHIFT and press PLAY •RESTART to restart the VS-2480 instead

EJECT).
