Changing Track Status (Audio Status); Registering/Canceling Points In A Song (Locate) - Roland VM-C7100 Owner's Manual

Chapter 10 Combining Recorders

Changing track status (Audio status)

Track by track status of the multitrack recorder (recording, playing, mute, etc.) can
be selected by switching the system's audio status.
If you turn SECTION [MULTI OUT 1-24] on, the same function as that of the
remotely controlled recorder becomes available from the audio status button. With
each press of the button, the status is toggled as follows:
Lit in red
Lit in green
• When muting a track, turn the audio status off (indicator extinguished) by
selecting the mute for the mute status (indicator lights in red) or by switching
SECTION to [MULTI IN 1-24].

Registering/canceling points in a song (Locate)

Locate denotes the function used for storing tape progress time and auto-mixing
implemented in synchronization with tape progress. You can save up to 100 locate
points (Nos. 00 through 99) per project.
Current time is normally displayed in the upper right-hand corner of the screen in
hours, minutes, seconds and frames.
fig.10-003
If the buttons (numerical keys) have the current time registered using the locate
function, you can return to that position without fail from some other time location
(another position on the tape).
Registering and recalling locate points
1. Press [LOCATE] and it will start blinking.
The button indicates that the system awaits entry to the top column of the location
number.
2. Using one of the numerical keys [0] to [9], enter the first number.
The number you specified is selected for the second place of the scene number.
[LOCATE] will stop blinking.
3. Select a numerical key currently not lit.
The button will light up, indicating that the current time has been registered as the
locate point.
4. Continue registering the current time, one by one pressing the as yet
unused buttons.
5. Change the mixer setting, then press the lighted numerical keys.
The locate point already registered will be recalled.
Clearing registered locate points
While the above [LOCATE] is lit:
1. Press [CLEAR].
2. Press lighted numerical keys.
The locate point registered for the numerical keys will be cleared.

Recording
Play
Normally, the audio status
indicates ON (green) or
OFF (indicator
extinguished) of the
sending to main out from
each channel. If you turn
on CH STATUS MODE
[AUDIO], the status of each
channel will be indicated
by turning STATUS [1],
[2],...[24] on or off.
Registered locate points
can be used as pointers for
punch-in during Automix.
As long as [LOCATE] is
turned on, you can specify
succeeding columns of a
location number from the
numerical keypad. When,
for example, location 53 is
desired, press [LOCATE]
[5] [3], in that order. If
[LOCATE] and [3] are
turned on at the end of the
entry, your registration is
complete. (If, however, [3]
is lighted when you
pressed [LOCATE] [5],
[3] is registered, so you
must select another
number.)
When all the numerical
keys have been used, you
can return to the above
procedure to specify
another number for the first
column.
