22—EZ Routing

Roland VS-2400CD Owner’s Manual www.RolandUS.com 283

Loading an EZ Routing Template

1. Press EZ ROUTING.

2. If “LOAD” isn’t visible above F5, press PAGE until it is.

3. Press F5 (LOAD)—the EZ ROUTING TEMPLATE LOAD screen appears.

4. Turn the Time/Value dial to select the template you want to load.

5. Press F5 (OK). The VS-2400CD asks if you’re sure you want to proceed.

6. Press ENTER/YES to load the template, or EXIT/NO to cancel the operation. If you

press ENTER/YES, the template—and all of the routings and conﬁguration settings

it contains—loads.

Before loading an EZ Routing template, it’s a good idea to turn your listening level

down all the way in case the template’s new connections and settings cause feedback,

result in unwanted noises or cause other problems.
