Chapter 3: Recording Applications

There may be occasions where you want to just audition different effects on your instrument without

actually recording anything. Maybe you just want to experiment with different reverb effects or change an

EQ. This example uses the optional VS8F-1 Effect Expansion Board.

You will setup the VS-880 as though you are going to record the guitar with effects, however, you will not

actually press the record button to begin recording.

4. Play the guitar as loud as you will during the performance and turn the [INPUT SENS 2]

knob clockwise until the PEAK light turns red, then turn it slightly counterclockwise until
