CAUTION

• 

No USB power adapter is included with the iPod touch. To 

use an iPod touch with this unit, purchase a genuine Apple 

USB power adapter (that supplies 5 V and at least 700 mA 

current).

• 

Operation with other USB power adapters is possible, but 

we strongly recommend using the genuine Apple USB power 

adapter included with the iPad/iPhone.
When using another USB power adapter, be sure that the 

power supply device meets the following specifications.

• 

Supplied voltage: 5 V

• 

Supplied current: 700 mA or more

Using a power supply device with specifications other than 

the above could cause malfunction, overheating, fire or 

other problems. If anything abnormal occurs, stop use 

and contact the store where you purchased this unit or a 

TASCAM customer support service to request repair.

When using a computer (Windows/Mac)

Normally, when this unit is connected to a computer, it will 

operate using USB bus power, so connecting a separate power 

supply device is not necessary.
