Making a Multi-Track Recording

Please follow through these steps to understand the procedure.
Creating a New Project (Project New)
fig.03-01_50
1. Press [PROJECT]. Project Condition screen will appear.
2. Press [PAGE] several times until function tab “Page1” will display at the
front.
3. Press [F2 (NEW)].
4. Assign a name to the project. Use [ ][ ] to highlight the character
you wish to change, and use the TIME/VALUE dial to select a character.
5. Use [ ] to move the cursor to “Sample Rate.”
Recording operations
cannot be performed when
the demo performance or
protected project (Project
Protect (Owner’s Manual p.
75)) is selected. This is
because the is protected so
that its contents cannot be
modified. In order to
record, use the following
procedure to prepare a new
project. This is analogous to
putting a new tape into a
tape-type multi-track
recorder.

Regarding Hard Disk Partition Size
When purchased, the hard disk (HDP35 series) is divided (partitioned) into 10 GB
units. You can also select 500 MB, 1 GB, or 2 GB disks that are compatible with the
Roland VS series.
The changed partition size will take effect when you initialize (Initializing a drive
(Owner’s Manual p. 84)) the hard disk.
For example, if you change the partition size before you begin the procedures
(multitrack recording) described in this chapter, you will be able to record for a
longer time. However, all contents saved on the hard disk will be lost, and cannot be
recovered. As necessary, please back up (Owner’s Manual p. 80) the your works
beforehand on a external removable disk or CD-RW disc.
