Troubleshooting

• The sampling rate of the recording destination song is

different than the sampling rate of the digital audio

device.

→ Match the sample rate setting of the digital audio

device to the setting of the song. If it is not possible

to change the sample rate of the digital audio device,

create a new song with that sample rate.

• The digital signal is not being transmitted from the

digital audio device.

→ Some digital audio devices do not output a digital

signal unless they are in play mode. If this is the

case, put your digital audio device in standby

(pause) mode before putting the VS-1824 into record

mode.

• The digital signal format is different.

→ Some digital audio devices may use a special digital

signal format. Please connect to a digital audio

device that is compatible with S/P DIF.

Noise and distortion appear in the

recorded sound

• Input sensitivity settings are incorrect.

→ If input sensitivity settings are too high, the

recorded sound will be distorted. Conversely, if they

are too low, the recorded sound will be obscured by

noise. Adjust the INPUT knobs so that the level

meters move at as high a level as possible, within the

range of -12 dB to 0 dB.

• The equalizer is being used with the input mixer.

→ Some equalizer settings may cause the sound to

distort even if the PEAK indicator does not light.

Readjust the equalizer.

• “ATT” (Attenuator) setting is incorrect. (Owner’s

Manual p. 55, 82, 89, 94)

→ If noise or distortion occurred as a result of track

bouncing, the track output levels were too high.

The playback pitch is strange

• The Vari-Pitch function is turned on (the VARI PITCH

icon is appeared in the display).

• The time compression/expansion function is being used

(Owner’s Manual p. 148).

Disk drive problems

The internal hard disk is not being

recognized

• “IDE Drive” is set to “Off” (Owner’s Manual p. 254).

• The “Partition” settings are not right (Owner’s Manual

p. 24, 216).

→ When a high-capacity hard disk is installed in the

VS-1824, we recommend setting the partition size to

“2000MB.”

• Although the Track Erase operation is finished, the

available recording time does not increased.

→ The audio data is erased by Track Cut, Track Erase

or Phrase Delete etc., the data that is no longer

played back is not actually erased from the hard

disk. If you wish to increase the available recording

time, please read “If “Disk Full!” appears in the

display (Song Optimize)” (Owner’s Manual p. 218).

The Zip drive is not recognized

• The Zip drive is not connected correctly.

• The same device ID number is assigned to two or more

SCSI devices (Zip drives , CD-RW drives, etc.).

• The Zip drive has not been initialized (Owner’s Manual

p. 229).

• No Zip disk is inserted in the drive.

→ When switching Zip disks, be sure to select the

newly inserted disk as the current drive.

• An archives copy Zip disk is inserted.

→ Playable copies and archives copies have different

disk formats. Take precautions such as sticking

labels on disks saved as archive type data disks to

distinguish the from other disks.

• The VS-1824 song data saved on Zip disks cannot use the

computer’s internal Zip drive.

→ The VS-1824 song data format is particular to the

VS-1824. Other than the other VS-series data ported

(Song Export) to the VS-1824, the data cannot be

handled by other devices (VS-1880 excepted).

The song data of the VS-1824 is the same as the song data of

the VS-1880.

• Initialization is cancelled, with error messages such as

“Medium Error,” “Not 512 bytes/sector,” “Function

Failed!” or other messages appearing in the display

→ The Zip disk may scratched or be otherwise

damaged. Try another (new) disk to check whether

or not the same condition reappears.

→ The Zip drive may be broken. Connect the Zip drive

to a device other than the VS-1824 (e.g., your

computer) to see if the drive can initialize disks, read

files, and perform other operations normally.
