TASCAM 2488MKII
This example shows how to record a rhythm guitar, followed
by recording an accompanying lead guitar. This is a simple
recording, but the same procedures also apply to more
complicated recordings, so please read this section carefully.

The 2488MKII is shipped from the factory with a
new song ready for you to record. However, if the
2488MKII has been used before, it will automatically
load the last song that was worked on, and you may
need to follow these instructions to create a new
song. Normally, though, this will not be needed.
