Main featuresParts and their functionScreens and operations
● Shutdown
1) Lower the D888’s monitor LEVEL knob to the “0” position.
2) Turn off any devices connected to the D888’s outputs, such as your monitor
system.
3) Hold down the D888’s power (ON) button (for 2–3 seconds) and the
shutdown LCD screen appear.
If you press the ENTER/OK button, the current song will be saved
automatically, and the D888 will return to the standby mode. This
process is called “shutdown”.
If you press the EXIT/CANCEL button, you will return to the previ-
ous screen.
● Power -off
1) If you will not be using the D888 for an extended period of time, press the
main power switch (POWER ON) located on the rear panel of the D888 to
turn off the power.
2) Turn off any devices (such as keyboards) connected to the D888’s inputs.
When turning the power off, you must perform the shutdown process. Never turn off the main
power switch or disconnect the power cable before shutdown has been completed.
If you turn off the main power switch or disconnect the power cable before shutdown has been
completed, data or user settings will be lost, and the hard disk may be damaged.
The audio you record into the D888 and the mixer and effect settings you make are automati-
cally saved when you select a song or perform the shutdown process.

*1: You can directly input a guitar or bass that has active pickups, but if your instrument has passive pickups
(i.e., without a built-in preamp), you won’t obtain satisfactory volume and tone quality because of the
impedance mismatch. In this case, please route your instrument through a preamp or effect unit.
