About The Info Display; What's Shown On The Info Display - Roland VS-2480 Owner's Manual Addendum

The VGA's Main Display Home Screen
Like the LCD, the VGA main display has its own Home screen, shown on
the previous page. You can return to the Home screen at any time by
clicking the HOME button in the upper right-hand corner of the display (as
shown on Page 20), the HOME•DISPLAY button on the VS-2480 or the
Home button on your keyboard.
Button Colors on the VGA Main Display
The VGA contains a wide assortment of on/off switches, presented
as clickable buttons. Unless otherwise noted, when a button is
switched on, it turns yellow—when it's off, it's gray.
The transport REC button and the Mastering Room, Automix and
phrase sequencer Record buttons behave a little differently: they
turn red when activated.
Interaction with the VS-2480's Top-Panel Controls
The VS-2480's top-panel buttons generally interact with the currently selected main
display as described in the VS-2480 Owner's Manual. When the VGA is selected as the
main display, however, there are a few minor differences:
•
•
•
Sub-Windows
In some cases, when you click a button on the VGA main display or select a menu item,
a window opens that looks just like the corresponding screen on the VS-2480's LCD,
with the same F buttons available at the bottom of the window. The contents of the
window behave the same way they do on the VS-2480's LCD. You can exit the screen by
clicking the box in its upper-left corner or by pressing F6 (EXIT).
