Naming Input Channels - Roland VM-C7100 Owner's Manual

Naming input channels

You can assign a name to each input channel and multi-in channel—this can make it
easier to identify your individual signals as you work. You can use short names, such
as "Vo3," with up to 3 characters, and long names, such as "Vocal 03," with up to 12
characters.
Creating channel names
1. Press [INPUT] or [MULTI IN] in the SECTION area to select the type of
channel you want to name.
2. Press the desired channel's [CH EDIT] so that the button lights.
3. Use [PAGE UP]/[PAGE DOWN] to select the NAME page

assigning it the desired character.
Turn [V3] (CURSOR POS) to select the each character position you want to edit.
5. When you've selected the character position, enter the desired character
using the following knobs.
• upper-case letters (A–Z) by turning [V4] (ABC).

(CATEGORY) and [V2] (NUMBER) to select and enter the desired name.
• Select a category name from the list using [V1] (CATEGORY).
• Select a number to be attached to the end of the name using [V2] (NUMBER).
