Chapter 7 Using Internal Effects (VS8F-2)
Recording Stereo Effects
Most of the effects in the Effects Expansion Board are stereo.
To record the output of a stereo effect so that it sounds the
same as it does in the MIX bus, it must be recorded onto two
tracks. To do so, turn Link to "On" for both the input and the
track. For example, use the following procedure to set up the
VS-1824 to record a stereo effect on Input 8 to Tracks 7/8:
1. Press the SELECT button for Input 8.
2. Use [

], [
cursor to "Link."
3. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to turn Link "On."
4. Use [
], [
], [
cursor to FX INS and press [ENTER/YES].
5. Use [
], [
], [
desired effects processor and use the TIME/VALUE dial
to select "INSERT."
It is important that you insert the effect after the inputs are
linked.
6. Press the SELECT button for Track 8.
7. Use [
], [
], [
cursor to "Link."
8. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to turn Link "On."
9. Press [PLAY/DISPLAY] to return to the main Play
screen.
10. Hold the Channel 8 STATUS button and press the Input
8 SELECT button so that it is flashing (the Input 7
SELECT button will also flash). This routes Input 8 to
Tracks 7 and 8 for recording.
Now, with Tracks 7 and 8 grouped as a stereo pair, any
stereo effect inserted on Input 8 will be recorded in stereo on
Tracks 7/8.

Three Important Reminders
About Using Effects
1. If you insert an effect anywhere in the Track Mixer, Input
Mixer, or Master Block, that effect cannot be used on any
other tracks or inputs. The exception is when you use a
two-channel effect, and insert it on one channel of the
mixer using "InsL," and on another channel using
"InsR." When an effect has already been inserted on
another channel—or on the Master Block—the display
will tell you so.
2. If you've assigned an effect return to a track in order to
print the effect, you must un-assign the effect return from
the track in order to have it return to the main stereo mix.
3. To print an insert effect applied to an input, make sure
that it is inserted on the input and not the track. To listen
to an insert effect while recording, without printing it,
make sure that the effect is inserted on the track and not
the input.
