Before Backing Up to DAT
Song data can be saved using a DAT recorder by connecting
the VS-1824’s DIGITAL OUT connector (coaxial or optical) to
a DAT (“digital audio tape”) recorder. This procedure is
referred to as “DAT Backup.” The procedure of loading
previously backed-up song data into the VS-1824 is referred
to as “DAT Recover.” The backed up song data includes the
data of all V-Tracks, and song settings such as locators,
markers, mixer Scenes and Automix data. Make backups of
your data as a precaution against unexpected problems, or
when your drive is full and no more recording is possible.
Since DAT tapes are easily transported, they are good for
exchanging song data with other VS-1824 users. We
recommend important data be backed up to multiple tapes.

You can use a conventional DAT recorder. Other digital
recording devices such as MD recorders or DCC recorders
cannot be used to back up data. You cannot use a DAT
recorder that alters recorded data during playback; for
example, DAT recorders featuring internal digital signal
recorded on the drive.

* Portable DAT recorders may require a special adapter when
connecting to the VS-1824’s DIGITAL IN and OUT. Check
the owner’s manual for your DAT recorder, or consult your
dealer or service center to find out what your model may
require.

Tape:
You can use conventional DAT tapes. However, 180-minute
tapes are very thin, and may easily stretch or become tangled
in the recorder. Avoid using 180-minute tapes.

When you need more than one tape to do the backup,
prepare whatever number of tapes you need. It is
recommended that you write down the numbers of the tapes
to indicate the order in which they are to be used during the
backup, and that you use tapes that are of the same recording
length.

Audio equipment:
Turn down the volume of any connected audio devices while
song data is being backed up. During DAT backups, no
audio is output from the VS-1824’s analog output jacks. The
song data sent to the DAT recorder from the VS-1824 is a
particular signal recorded on the drive. Monitoring this with
the DAT recorder’s volume raised may result in damage to
your speakers, and may adversely affect your hearing.
