The Recording Process

Preparing to make a recording

is not recording it just activates the recording levels and microphone for you to set before actually
recording.

external wheel is the Left channel.

Making a recording

Once fully set up in Standby Record mode press the RECORD once more to record. The light around the
record button should be a solid red to indicate recording. Make sure to press STOP and not Play/Pause
to end the recording.
Play/Pause will only pause the recording and make one long file. STOP creates separate files.
To playback, go back to the home screen and use the |◀◀ ▶▶| buttons to navigate through the files.
Press the Play/Pause button to play the desired file.

Force reset function

Sometimes, the Tascam can get itself soft-locked. This is where it gets trapped in a menu or recording
process and won't go back or turn off.
If this ever happens you can do a force reboot, press and hold the 'POWER' button for at least 10
seconds while holding down the 'STOP' button at the same time. This will force the unit to turn itself
off.
