NOTE
•
When using a TASCAM RC-HS32PD remote controller (sold
separately), file names (or the first parts of long file names)
appear on the keys, making it easy to check the files.
•
When using a TASCAM RC-SS20 remote controller (sold
separately), the takes or entries numbered from 1 to 20 on
each page can be played back using flash start.
•
When using a computer keyboard, the takes or entries
numbered from 1 to 12 on each page can be played back

Flash start playback
When the Flash Start Key Method item is set to Flash Start,
pressing a flash start key causes the corresponding take or entry
to start playback immediately.
Standby playback (only with RC-HS32PD
connected)
When the Flash Start Key Method item is set to Standby,
pressing a flash start key when stopped puts the corresponding
take or entry into playback standby and that key blinks yellow.
Following this, pressing the PLAY key will cause playback to start
and the key to become green.
During playback, touching another flash start key will cause the
corresponding take or file to become lined up for playback, and
that key will become yellow.
When a take or entry is lined up for playback, pressing the PLAY
key will cause that take to start playing.
To cancel standby, touch the key for the lined up take (yellow
key) again.
