3 – Parts of the Pocketstudio 5

 TASCAM Pocketstudio 5 

Getting Started 

9

Top panel

G

Display 

The display shows you the current 

status of the song, etc. as well as the menu choices to 
set up and use your Pocketstudio 5.

H

MP3 key 

Use this key when mixing down to a 

stereo MP3 file (lights red) or playing back an MP3 
file (lights green). When unlit, the Pocketstudio 5 is 
recording tracks or bouncing.

I

EFFECTS key 

Use this key to set up and use 

the Pocketstudio 5’s built-in effects units.

J

Advanced transport keys 

Use these keys 

to set repeat points, and automated punch operations.

K

REC READY keys 

Used with the four audio 

tracks of the Pocketstudio 5 to assign the sources to 
the tracks, to check these assignments, and so on.

L

Faders 

The four track faders (

1

 through 

4

) are 

used to adjust the playback volume of the four audio 
tracks. The 

TG

 fader adjusts the overall volume of 

the built-in MIDI tone generator (that’s what “TG” 
stands for!), and the 

MASTER

 fader adjusts the over-

all level of the overall signal. Pull the faders away to 
you to reduce the volume, and push them away from 
you to increase the volume. The nominal position, 
with no cut or boost, is marked about two-thirds of 
the way up.

M

Built-in microphone 

If you do not have an 

external microphone available, you can use this 
microphone to record “guide” tracks, etc. The quality 
will be improved, though, if you use an external 
microphone, such as the one included as part of the 
supplied headset.
