TRS
Short for “Tip/Ring/Sleeve.” A type of 1/4” audio cable connector that uses three wires for
carrying audio signals and for grounding. The wires are attached to the connector’s tip, ring
and a second ring called a “sleeve.”
Track
In the VS-2480’s hard disk recorder, a track is a collection of 16 V-Tracks, any one of which
can be active at a time. In the phrase sequencer, a track is a set of phrases played on a
phrase pad and recorded. With the Automix feature, a track is a string of parameter values
for a mixer channel or bus recorded as Automix data. See “V-Track.”
Unbalanced
A type of audio cable and connector that uses two wires, one for the audio and one for the
ground—a third wire isn’t used.
Undo
The VS-2480’s Undo feature allows you to reverse up to 99 of your most recent recording
and editing actions in a project. The act of reversing an action is referred to as “undoing”
the action.
V-Track
A V-Track (“Virtual Track”) is a string of phrases arranged one after another in the order in
which they’re to be played back by the VS-2480’s hard disk recorder. Each VS-2480 track
contains 16 V-Tracks, any one of which can be played back or recorded on at any given time.
Virtual Track
See “V-Track.”
Waveform data
Waveform data is an audio signal displayed in a grid. The horizontal axis shows elapsed
time, and the vertical axis shows volume, or “amplitude.”

A “wet” signal is a signal to which an effect has been applied.
Word clock
A type of timing information carried within a digital audio signal that keeps multiple
digital recording devices precisely synchronized when exchanging digital audio.
XLR
Also called “Cannon connectors.” XLR connectors are found on almost all studio-quality,
low impedance microphones and other professional audio equipment. XLR connectors are
male-type or female-type. XLR connections can carry phantom power to condenser mics
that require it. XLR audio cables are typically balanced—see “Balanced.”
