MR-8HD/CD Owner’s Manual (Basic operations)
In the demo song, approximately 1-minute audio is recorded on all eight tracks. Follow the procedure
below for listening to the demo song. In the following procedure, it is assumed that the MR-8HD/CD
is turned on and a pair of headphones (or a monitor speaker system) is connected.
Playing back the demo song
<Hint-2>: To listen to the demo song again:
When the recorder is stopped after listen-
ing to the demo song, press the [REWIND]
key while holding down the [STOP] key.
The recorder instantly moves back to the
beginning of the demo song (see page 48).
Then pressing the [PLAY] key starts play-
back from the beginning of the demo song.
<Note>:
The demo song is protected and you can-
not overwrite or erase it. Therefore, you cannot
make recording in this condition.
If you want to make new recording while keep-
ing the demo tape on the hard disk, see "Creat-
ing a song for recording" on the next page.
If you do not keep the demo song, carry out ei-
ther of the following operations.
(1) Release the song protection (see page
101).
Then, start recording (overwrite
recording) from the beginning of the demo
song, or delete the demo song from the
hard disk. If you delete the demo song,
create a new song (see the next page) and
make recording to the new song.
(2) Format the hard disk (see page 124) and
make recording.
Because a new song is automatically
created after formatting the disk, you can
start recording without the need of
creating a new song manually.
1) Raise the [MASTER] fader to the " " position.
Set the track faders at the lowest position.
2) Press the [PLAY] key to start playback.
3) Raise the track faders (1 through 8) gradually to
adjust the playback level and balance.
Also raise the [PHONES VOL] control gradually
to adjust the headphones level. (If you are
using a powered monitor speaker for
monitoring, adjust the level control of the
powered speaker.)
