Shortcuts for Selecting Tracks During Song
Split
When the cursor is moved to "Track," you can have
marks simultaneously set or deleted from all selected
tracks. For example, if you move the cursor to the actual
track number column, and press [F3 (Mark)], marks will
be set for all V-Tracks on the selected track. Similarly, if
you move the cursor to the row for the V-Track number
and press [F3 (Mark)], all V-Tracks will be selected. For
example, if you move the cursor to "V-Track 3" and
press [F3 (Mark)], the third V-Track in all tracks will be
marked. Press [F2 (ALL)] to place or remove marks from
all tracks and V-Tracks simultaneously.
4. Check the track name by pressing [F1 (SelTr).
The Song Split Select Track screen appears. You can also
choose tracks to be copied in this screen by pressing

Chapter 12 Song Editing

Song Combine

Song Combine allows you to combine the V-Tracks of two
different songs. When Song Combine is executed, all tracks
from a second song (source song) are moved to the current
song (destination song), and the second song is deleted.
It is not possible to cancel Song Combine using the Undo
function, so it is recommended that before you perform Song
Combine, make a backup of both the source and destination
songs using a CD-R, CD-RW or DAT recorder.
You can perform Song Combine with any two VS-1824 songs
that have the same sample rate and Record mode. The
information copied to the current song includes performance
data (audio) and the information that designates the track
numbers the performance data is recorded on. Other settings
such as markers, locators, Automix, tempo maps, sync tracks
and system settings are not copied, and will be lost when the
source song is erased.
As a result of Song Combine, it is possible for the tracks of
the source song to overwrite the tracks of the destination
song. To prevent this from happening, use Track Exchange to
move all the V-Tracks in the source song to odd-numbered
positions, and all the V-Tracks in the destination song to
even-numbered positions. Later, after Song Combine is
finished, you can use Track Exchange to re-position all the
V-Tracks as desired.
1. First, select the desired song to be used as the destination
and current song.
2. Hold [SHIFT] and press [F1 (Song)].
The Song menu icon appears.
3. Press [F2 (Combn)].
If "Combn" does not appear in the display above [F2],
press [PAGE] until you see "Combn," and then press [F2
(Combn)].
