2.
Use [CURSOR] and the TIME/VALUE dial to change
track-button number assignments.
Clips 1 through 32 (i.e., CL1 through 32) can be allocated
to track buttons.
At the time of purchase, CL1 through CL12 will already
have been assigned to the track buttons for Tracks 1
through 8 and Tracks 9/10 through 15/16.
MIDI Program Change messages 00H through 1FH are
output via the MIDI OUT port for clips 1 through 32.
3.
Use [CURSOR] and the TIME/VALUE dial to change
VALUE-knob function assignments.
The following functions can be assigned to VALUE knobs.
4.
When you have finished making settings, press [EXIT/
NO] to return to the V-LINK screen.
• A certain delay (i.e., approximately 200 to 300 ms)
will occur between actual pressing of the track
button and switching of the video.
• It will not be possible to call up any screen other
than the top screen when V-LINK is turned on.
• If you press a track button while holding down [V-
TRACK], Palette 1 through Palette 12 will be
assigned to the track buttons for Tracks 1 through 8
and Tracks 9/10 through 15/16. Note that it will not
be possible to select palettes numbered 13 or higher
in order to modify assignments.
• Simply specifying a palette will not cause the video
to change; rather, this selection will be implemented
upon the next switching of a clip.
The BR-1600CD allows you to freely modify the clip
numbers assigned to track buttons and the control
functions assigned to the value knobs VALUE1
through VALUE4. For more details, refer to
“Changing V-LINK function assignments” below.
