| When you are finished mastering your tracks, you have several options for recording them to CD. If you have an optional Roland CD-R/W burner connected to your VS-1680, you can burn a copy of your mix directly to the CD burner. If you don't have the optional burner, you can run the two tracks out of the VS-1680 and into a computer or standalone CD burner . You can use the analog outs or the digital outs to accomplish this. When preparing the tracks to be recorded to the optional CD burner, you must adhere to the following rules: -
Sample Rate and Recording Mode: Only tracks recorded with a sample rate of 44.1kHz can be written to CD-R discs. Make sure you select the 44.1kHz sample rate when you create a new song if you plan on recording it to CD. You may use any of the recording modes, but the recommended ones are MTP, CDR (VS-1880, VS-1824 ONLY), MAS, or MT1. -
Levels and Mixer Settings: When recording an audio CD, only the actual audio will be recorded. Mixer, EQ, effects settings, and Automix data will not be transferred. Any desired level settings, panning, EQ, and effects settings must be recorded and performed on the source tracks during bouncing. -
Track Bouncing: You can select any two V-Tracks to be recorded to the CD. If your song exists in a multi-track format, it must be mixed and then bounced down to two tracks before it can be recorded as a CD audio track to the optional Roland CD burner. -
Deleting Silence: The two tracks will be written from the beginning of the tracks, normally "00h00m00s00" to the end of the tracks. Any blank space or silence on the track before the actual performance will be recorded as silence on the CD. To avoid this, use Track Cut to remove any unwanted silence at the beginning and end of the tracks. |
