TASCAM DR-1

Inserting an SD card

Since this unit uses an SD card for recording and

playback, you must insert an SD card before use.

The SD card slot and the USB connector are under

the cover on the left side panel.
Press the cover down in the direction of the arrow

to open it. Insert the included SD card in the SD

card slot and push it until it clicks fully into place.

Removing the SD card

Press the inserted SD card in gently and it will

disengage from the unit so that you can pull it out

completely.

CAUTION

Do not remove the SD card during recording or
playback, or when the unit is connected to the
computer by USB.
