Connections with other R-BUS devices
Connections with the VSR-880
Updating the system program
System program
version 1.03
or later
is required in order to
connect and use the VSR-880 with the RPC-1. If your VSR-
880 has
version 1.02 or earlier
, the system program must be
updated.
Checking the version
When the power is turned on, the lower line of the opening
screen will show the version as (for example)
“– Ver. 1.02 –.”
Updating the system program
The directory
“UPDATE > VSR-880”
in the included
“DRIVER/UPDATE CD-ROM”
contains the data for the
update. Perform the update procedure as directed in the
“readme.doc”
file.
Example settings
RPC-1 settings (in the Control Panel)
•
Master Clock
: Int. Clock
•
Int. Clock Sample Rate
: either 32, 44.1, or 48 kHz
(match the setting of the VSR-880)
VSR-880 settings
•
Master Clock
: R-BUS
•
System PRM
→
RBUSMute
: Disable*
• Execute
Shutdown([SHIFT]+[SHUT/EJECT/(STOP)])
whenever you change
RBUSMute
.
*
RBUSMute
is a parameter that was newly added in version
1.03 in order to support the RPC-1. If you are connecting an
earlier R-BUS device, set
RBUSMute=Enable
.
The
RBUSMute
parameter applies to the entire system; not
to an individual song.
In order to use the VSR-880’s R-BUS input, each input of the
input mixer must be set to
R-BUS
. For details, refer to
“Channel condition”
on
p. 79
in the
“VSR-880 owner’s
manual.”
If you wish to output each track of the VSR-880 to a separate
channel, go to
[LEVEL/BALANCE]
→
(Parameter)[|>|>] x9
and set
“MST Direct Out = On.”
Connections with the VS-2480
Example settings
RPC-1 settings (in the Control Panel)
•
Master Clock
: Int. Clock
•
Int.Clock Sample Rate
: either 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 or 96kHz
VS-2480 settings
•
Master Clock
: R-BUS
If you connect two RPC-1 units to a VS-2480, set the VS-2480
as the
word clock master
, and set each of the RPC-1’s as its
slave
. And then, turn the
SW-1
on of each RPC-1. Notice that
each RPC-1 must receive word clock from R-BUS. For details
refer to
p. 6 “Names of Things and what they do”
and
p. 17 “Using multiple RPC-1 units.”
If you are using a sampling frequency of
88.2 kHz
or
96 kHz
,
it is not possible to use a
clock cable
to synchronize multiple
RPC-1 units. Supply the word clock via R-BUS.
If you are using a sampling frequency of
88.2
or
96 kHz
,
using a five meter R-BUS cable (RBC-5) may cause noise to
occur. If you are using a frequency of
88.2
or
96 kHz
, use
shorter cable.
