Chapter 8 EZ Routing

As you work with the VS-1680, you will often make settings related to mixer connections—including settings that route inputs to

tracks for recording—settings that determine how signals are output, and settings that determine which effects are used. The

VS-1680’s “EZ Routing” features can make this process easier and faster. EZ Routing allows the VS-1680 to guide you step-by-step

through the making of these connections, or helps you get quickly to the parameters you need to change. In addition, your

favorite and most-frequently used setups can be stored as EZ Routing templates in the VS-1680’s memory—when you recall an

EZ Routing template, the VS-1680 is immediately re-configured for the task at hand.

There are three ways that EZ Routing makes working with the VS-1680 simpler:

Step Editing

EZ Routing Step Editing walks you through the required setup steps when recording, mixing, bouncing and mastering. Step

Editing is especially handy if you are not sure what needs to be done, and would like some guidance.

Quick Editing

Quick Editing allows you to quickly jump to the parameters that must be set when preparing to record, mix, bounce or

master. If you know what you want to change, and want to do it quickly, use Quick Editing.

Templates

When you have set up the VS-1680 for a particular task—and would like the VS-1680 to remember your settings for re-use

some time in the future—you can save the setup as an EZ Routing template. When you recall the template, the VS-1680’s

parameters are instantly reset, and your setup is once more in place. You can save up to 29 EZ Routing templates. In addition,

the VS-1680 provides four of its own: one each for recording, mixing, bouncing and mastering.

At the time of purchase, the VS-1680 comes with four read-only EZ Routing templates. The VS-1680 also offers 29 reusable user

EZ Routings. You can choose one of the four templates, make changes to it, and then save those settings as one of the user EZ

Routings.

EZ Routing templates may seem similar to Scenes; however, there is one important difference: while Scenes are associated—and

saved—with particular songs, EZ Routing templates are always available for use in any song.

Using EZ Routing Step Editing

EZ Routing Step Editing walks you through the necessary setup procedure for recording, mixing, bouncing and mastering. As

you begin your setup, the VS-1680 presents the first screenful of parameters that must be set. When you are ready, press {F2

(STEP)] to proceed to the next set of parameters until the entire setup is complete. Step Editing can help you learn how the

VS-1680 works and is therefore a great tool for beginners.

When you have finished your setup, you can save it as an EZ Routing template. The following pages describe how to use EZ

Routing Step Editing.
