Recording on Other Tracks
(Overdubbing)
In multitrack recording, the standard procedure is to record
new tracks while listening to previously recorded tracks.
This is referred to as "overdubbing."
1. Select the tracks you want to play back.
Hold [STOP] and press the STATUS button for the tracks
you want to play back (i.e. that you want to hear while
overdubbing).
The STATUS buttons light green.
* If you want to select TR 1-12, press [FADER/MUTE]
several times until the "TR" indicator lights.
If you want to select TR 13-18, press [FADER/MUTE]
several times until the "TR" indicator blinks.
"Switching the Fader Functions" (p. 71)
Holding [STOP] and pressing a STATUS button will place
that channel in Play mode immediately. Hold [REC] and
press a STATUS button to place a channel in Record Ready
mode.
2. Select the tracks you want to record.
Hold [REC] and press the STATUS button for the tracks
you want to record to.
The STATUS buttons light red.
3. Select the inputs to Record for each track.
While holding the STATUS button for the track you will
record, press the Input SELECT button for the input you
want assigned to the track.
The SELECT button will blink, indicating it is now
assigned to the track.
4. Now you are ready for overdubbing. Follow Steps 4-12
of "Recording to the Tracks" (p. 54), to record and then
check the track's recorded content.

Recording Using Different
Virtual Tracks (V-Tracks)
The VS-1824 features 16 recordable tracks per channel. These
are called Virtual Tracks, or "V-Tracks." By using V-Tracks,
you can record up to 288 tracks per song. You can use Virtual
Tracks to record over and over on the same track without
erasing or losing the previous recording.
1. Press the SELECT button for the track whose V-Track
you wish to change. The button indicator lights. The
Track Mixer screen appears in the display.
If you want to display track channel 13-18, hold [SHIFT]
down and press the SELECT buttons for track channels
(13-18).
2. Press [F5 (V.Trk)].
If "V.Trk" does not appear above [F5], press [PAGE]
until it appears, and then press [F5 (V.Trk)]. Or, you may
simply use [
], [
the cursor to "V. Trk" in the Track Mixer display.
3. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to choose the V-Track you
want to use. Note, you cannot change the V-Track while
the song is playing. If the song is playing, press [STOP],
and then use the TIME/VALUE dial to choose the
V-Track.
