Linking Audio To A Video Switching; Applying Effects To Audio - Roland VR-5 Owner's Manual

Linking Audio to Video
[AUDIO FOLLOW] causes the audio associated with a video source to become prominent when that video source is selected. Only
the audio input on the same channel as the selected video channel is output — other channels are automatically muted.
The positions of the faders do not change automatically when the link feature is activated. Audio sources will be automatically output at the
currently set fader level, or they will be muted.
1.
Adjust the audio on the respective channels.
Raise and lower the faders for the channels to adjust them to the volume level you want to output.
2.
Switch on the link feature.
Press the [AUDIO FOLLOW] button to make it light up. The indicators for the channels targeted by the link feature light up.
Pressing the button a second time makes it go dark and switches off the link feature. At the same time, the indicators for the
channels also go dark.
* By default, all channels are selected as target channels. You can also use menu operations to remove specific channels from the group of
targets. Refer to "Menu Operations and Menu List" (p. 60), "AUDIO MIX Menu > AUDIO INPUT" (p. 64).

3.
Switch the video channel.
Use the procedure in "Switching the Video" (p. 28) to switch the channel. Only the audio input on the same channel as the
selected video is output — other channels are muted. The output at this time is at the volume level you set in step 1. Also, the
indicator for selected output channel starts to flash.
* Audio cross-fade is applied for the length of time set for transition effects. By default, this is set at 0.5 seconds. You can use the menus to
change the time. Refer to "Menu Operations and Menu List" (p. 60), "VIDEO MIX Menu > TRANSITION SETUP > TRANSITION TIME" (p. 63).

Applying Effects to Audio

You can apply effects to the audio before output. You can apply the following effects.
For MIC/LINE 1 and 2
• HIGH PASS
• NOISE GATE
• EQ Lo/Hi
For Final Output
• NOISE SUPPRESSOR
• ENHANCER
• MASTER Lo/Hi
* You can apply above effects when [MASTERING EFF] has been switched on.
In addition to these, you can also apply [LIP SYNC DELAY] to delay audio output to allow lip-syncing with the video. From the
SYSTEM menu, choose [VIDEO/AUDIO], then select [LIP SYNC DELAY]. Increasing the setting value makes the delay longer.
This cuts the low band, passing only the high band. This is effective in removing low-frequency noise.
This attenuates signals below a certain level. Use this when you want to suppress low-level sound or noise.
You can use this to attenuate or emphasize low-band (Lo) or high-band (Hi) signals.
This cancels signals during times of no input, for output of clear audio.
This adds harmonics to adjust or accent the tone quality.
This corrects for distortion in the low end (Lo) or high band (Hi).
