If the LCD display does not show the startup
screen when turning on the power, check the
following.
• The power is supplied to the unit. (i.e. the AC
adaptor is correctly connected, or batteries are
not exhausted and correctly set.)
• The card is correctly set to the slot.
Note that the demo song is protected and the " "
icon is shown at the top right of the screen.
You can play back a protected song but cannot
make recording or edit data. See page 20 for the
details.
<Important!>
Note when external devices are connected.
If external devices are connected to the MR-8,
follow the procedure below when turning on
the power.
1. Turn down the MR-8 [MASTER] fader.
2. Turn on the power of source devices.
3. Turn on the power of the MR-8.
4. Turn on the power of monitor devices (such
as an amplifier, speakers with built-in
amplifiers, etc.).
When turning off the power, make sure that the
MR-8 is stopped. If external devices are con-
nected, reverse the procedure shown above (i.e.
monitor devices -> MR-8 -> source devices).
<Important!>
If you turn off the MR-8 power while the card is
accessed, the recorded songs or card itself may be
damaged.
You do not have to shut down the MR-8 before
turning it off. All data recorded before turning off
the power are memorized.
If you hardly see the screen on the LCD display
in the dark place, turn the LCD display backlight
by setting the [POWER] switch to the "LIGHT"
position.
<Note>
When using the MR-8 with batteries, we recommend
not to turn on the backlight except when it is needed.
Turning on the backlight consumes the battery
power, therefore, the operation time becomes
shorter.
When using the MR-8 with batteries and the bat-
tery power becomes low, "Low Battery!" flashes
on the display.
If you see this, interrupt the current work and
replace batteries.
Note that when "Low Battery!" flashes on the dis-
play, you cannot turn on the backlight.
<Important!>
If you continue your work after "Low Battery!" starts
flashing, the batteries finally become empty. In
such a condition, the warning message as shown
below appears on the display and the MR-8 does
not accept any key operation.
We recommend to replace batteries as soon as "Low
Battery!" starts flashing.
