Chapter 11 Editing Tips & Tools

Chapter 11

Waveform Display

The pop-up waveform display in the VS-1680 is very useful

for precision editing. The waveform shows audio amplitudes

of the recorded track. You can use the function buttons to

manipulate the resolution of this waveform for very precise

location of edit points.

1. Press [PLAY (DISPLAY)] to view the Playlist Display.

2. Cursor down [ ] to access the lower section of the

VS-1680 display screen.

3. Press [F5 (WAVE)]. If “WAVE” does not appear above

[F5], press [PAGE] until it appears, and then press [F5

(WAVE)].

fig.12-14

4. Use[ ] and [ ] to select the track to view.

5. If after you press [F5 (WAVE)], a flat line appears in the

waveform window, try the following:

Make sure you have selected a location on a track that

has audio on it.

Press [F1 (ZOOM+)] three times to increase the

amplitude of the waveform.

Press [F3 (<- ->)] four times to decrease the time zoom of

the waveform.

6. When the waveform is displayed, the function buttons

operate as follows:

[F1 (ZOOM+)]:

Increases the amplitude of the waveform display, in

three steps. This makes the waveform taller in the

display.

[F2 (ZOOM-)]:

Decreases the amplitude of the waveform display, in

three steps. This makes the waveform shorter in the

display.

[F3 (<- ->)]:

Decreases the time-zoom of the waveform display, in

four stages. This zooms back on the timeline.

[F4 (-> <-)]:

Increases the time-zoom of the waveform display, in

four stages. This zooms in on the timeline.

[F5 (WAVE)]:

Removes the waveform display from the screen.

7. When you are done viewing the waveform for a track,

press [F5 (WAVE)] to turn the waveform display off.

Entering Editing Time Values

Once you’ve entered a track editing screen, you must then

place the time locations you’ve established for the edit points

(START, END, etc.) into the appropriate fields in the display.

There are several ways to do this. The examples below will

explain how to get your time locations for the START, END,

etc. into the corresponding fields in an edit screen. We’ll use

Track Erase in these examples. See p. 163 for an example

using Track Copy.

fig.04-27

Using the TIME/VALUE Dial:

1. Hold [SHIFT] and press [F2 (TRACK)].

2. Make sure “Track Edit Menu” appears in the display. If it

does not, press [F1 (Tr/Ph)] once.

3. Press [F2 (Erase)] for Track Erase. If you don’t see

“Erase” above [F2], press [PAGE] so “Erase” appears,

and then press [F2 (Erase)].

4. Press [ ], [ ], [ ], and [ ] to move the

cursor to the START field. Use the TIME/VALUE dial to

change the value of hours, minutes, seconds, frames and

sub frames. If your song was recorded using a tempo

map, you can use the TIME/VALUE dial to choose

Measures and Beats as well.

5. Press [ ] to move the cursor to the END field. Use the

TIME/VALUE dial to change the value of hours,
