If the following measures do not resolve the problem, contact the store where you purchased the device or a TEAC Repair Center.
Power does not turn on.

completely.
Media is not recognized.
• Confirm that the CF card is securely inserted into the CF
slot.
• Pause recording or playback.
The unit controls do not function.

down) and bit rates of 16 and 24.
• Confirm that the sampling frequencies of the project and
the audio file are the same.
There is no sound.
• Check the monitoring system connections and the amplifier
volume setting.
• On the MONITOR MIXER page of the MIXER SETUP screen,
check that the monitor level settings (level knob settings)

• When using a TASCAM RC-HS32PD remote controller (sold
separately), confirm that the fader is not lowered.

turn input monitoring ON.
• If you cannot hear the playback sound, turn input
monitoring OFF.
• Check the online function and online playback mode
settings.
• Check the MIXER SETUP screen SETUP tab to see if the
Monitor Mute by Online item is set to ON. If it is set to ON,
monitoring signals will be muted when online.
Recording is not possible.
• Reconfirm connections.
• Adjust the recording levels.
• If the CF card does not have enough capacity, erase
unneeded data and increase the amount of open space or
change the CF card.
• If the maximum number of recordable takes or the
maximum take number has been reached, change the
recording session.
• If the total number of items in the folder, including files and
subfolders, is too large, change the recording session.
Setting changes are not remembered.
• This unit backs up settings whenever the CF card selection
is changed, a project, session or take is loaded, and
playback or recording occurs.
After startup, if none of these actions is conducted, settings
might not be backed up even if they are changed.
I hear noise.
• Confirm that none of the cables have problems.
