Connecting the CD-R/CD-RW

Drive

* To prevent malfunction and or damage to speakers or other

devices, always turn down the volume and turn off the power

on all devices before making any connections.

Make sure both the VS-1680 and the CD-R/CD-RW drive

are off. Connect the CD-R/CD-RW drive to the VS-1680

as shown below. If the CD-R is the only SCSI device

connected to the VS-1680—or if it is the last device in the

SCSI chain—make sure that a terminator plug is

connected to the remaining SCSI port on the CD-R, or

that the CD-R drive’s termination switch is set to “On.”

Turn on the power of the CD-R/CD-RW drive.

Turn on the power of the VS-1680.

* In order for the VS-1680 to properly recognize the CD-R/CD-

RW drive upon boot-up, it is very important to turn the CD-

R/CD-RW drive on first, and then turn on the VS-1680.

Turn on the power of connected audio equipment.

Raise the volume of the audio devices as desired.

Creating an Audio CD

You can create your own audio CD by choosing audio from

two individual tracks in the VS-1680 and writing those to a

CD-R disc. A CD can contain as many as 99 tracks—typically,

each song on a CD is a track—up to a total length of 74

minutes.

To conform to CD audio standard (Red Book), the VS-1680

turns your audio into an “image file,” or “disk image,” that is

written, or “burned,” to the CD. The VS-1680 creates this

image file when you burn the CD.

* An internal IDE hard drive is therefore required for burning

an audio CD. Some countries, such as the United States, ship

the VS-1680 with an internal IDE drive installed.

When an image file is created, it is temporarily stored on the

VS-1680’s internal IDE drive before being written to the

CD-R disc. The song itself can be stored on the internal drive,

or on an external drive or removable disk. The internal drive

must have enough free space to hold the image file—all

available free space on the drive can be used for this purpose,

regardless of the partition in which the space is located. After

the image file is written to the CD-R disc, it is automatically

deleted from the internal IDE drive.

Items Necessary for Creating an

Audio CD

• VS-1680

• CD-R/CD-RW Drive (approved by Roland).

• Blank CD-R (Compact Disc-Recordable) or CD-RW

(Compact Disc-Rewritable) disc

or stereo headphones
