With the VS-840EX - Record vocals/guitar/bass/synths, etc. - Create sounds with built-in effects - Create from rough to almost complete form 2. From MASTER OUT to an audio interface 3. Stem (grouping each part and exporting it as a material) and record it into a DAW (Logic / Cubase / Studio One, etc.) - You can import the sound of the VS directly into the DAW. - No PC troubles/latency issues. - You can clearly separate "recording time" and "editing time." ⸻ ② As an idea-generating machine - Song structure - Demo production - Creating vocal melodies/chords/compositions Completing these on the VS-840EX → Bringing only the final production into the DAW is also a very good way to use it. ⸻ ■ Recommended for those who: - Are struggling with their DAW and can't finish songs. - Want to focus on performance and production. - Are looking for a sub-unit/idea machine.
