Using V-LINK to create "Audio-Follows-Video"
with the RSS V-Mixer and EDIROL Video Mixers
The RSS V-Mixer family of digital mixers can accept MIDI from EDIROL video mixers to automate specific
faders. When a video source is selected on the EDIROL video mixer, the corresponding audio fader(s) on the
RSS V-Mixer will activate.
When fading slowly between two video sources, the V-Mixer's audio will slowly fade the corresponding
audio faders at the same rate.
This greatly simplifies the task of cueing up audio when a video source is selected.
You can perform audio-follows-video with your RSS M-400/M-380 and the EDIROL video mixers V-440HD, V-8 and
LVS-800.
Begin by connecting a standard 5-pin MIDI cable from the MIDI OUT port of your EDIROL video mixer to the
MIDI IN port of your RSS V-Mixer.
Make sure the SELECT switch on the rear of your RSS V-Mixer is set to MIDI.
Next, you need to make a few MIDI settings on your RSS V-Mixer.
