6—Understanding the Hard Disk Recorder
86 www.RolandUS.com Roland VS-2400CD Owner’s Manual
Because random access playback is so fast, the VS-2400CD jumps from one location
within the take to another so quickly it sounds as if it’s playing one continuous
recording.
The VS-2400CD can also jump from one take to another during playback. In the
illustration below, a phrase on one V-Track contains a great vocal performance except
for the third verse. A phrase on a second V-Track has a great Verse 3. Here’s what
happens if you copy Verse 3 from the second V-Track to the first:
The VS-2400CD creates and places all of its pointers behind the scenes—all you
experience is that the first phrase now contains a completely great vocal performance.
You can also move or copy entire phrases to new locations on the same V-Track or from
one V-Track to another—and much more—as described in Chapter 19.
The Advantage of Non-Destructive Editing
Non-destructive editing allows you to undo any edits you perform because all of your
original hard disk recordings—your takes—remain safe and sound on your hard disk
no matter how many edits you perform on the phrases that play them. It’s only their
pointers that have been edited.
This provides a tremendous amount of creative freedom. You can feel free to explore
any creative editing possibility without worrying that you won’t be able to get back to
where you started.
Though we’re creating pointers and pointer names here for demonstration purposes,
the VS-2400CD takes care of all this in its internal programming language.
If you’re sure you no longer need your discarded data, you can clear it from your hard
drive to gain disk space by performing a project optimization, described on Page 96.
