MR-8HD Owner’s Manual (Read this chapter first!)
About power supply
• Be sure to connect the MR-8HD to the power
supply specified in the specifications section
of this owner's manual. Do not use an AC
outlet of any other voltage.
• Do not connect the MR-8HD to the same AC
outlet to which devices that could generate
noise (such as a large motor or dimmer), or
the devices that consume a large amount of
power (such as an air conditioning system or
large electric heater) are connected.
• If you use the MR-8HD in an area with a
different power voltage, first consult your
dealer or the nearest Fostex service station.
• The [POWER] switch cannot turn off the
power completely. When this switch is "up",
the MR-8HD enters standby mode (i.e. the
power does not completely turned off).
Therefore, if you do not use the MR-8HD for
a long time, we recommend unplugging the
power cord from the AC outlet.
• It is very dangerous to use a power cord that
is frayed or damage. In such a case, stop
using the MR-8HD immediately and ask your
dealer to repair the cord.
<Important! >
Model name, power requirement, serial
number and other information for the
MR-8HD are shown at the bottom of the
unit.
Precautions upon installing the MR-8HD
• Do not install the MR-8HD in locations
subject to the following:
* Extremely high or low temperature, or
significant changes in temperature.
* Excessive humidity or dust.
* Excessive changes in power supply
voltage.
* Unstable or significantly vibrating or
shaking surfaces.
* Near a strong magnetic field (such as a
TV or speaker).
Notes on repair
• The MR-8HD does not use any parts that user
can repair easily. Contact your dealer or the
nearest Fostex service station to ask about
repairs.
• Use the original packing carton of the
MR-8HD when you transport or send the
MR-8HD to the dealer or Fostex service
station for repair.
If you have discarded the packing carton,
pack the MR-8HD using shock absorbing
materials. Fostex is not responsible for
malfunction or damage due to incomplete
packaging or caused during transportation.
• Because the MR-8HD is a consumer product,
Fostex does not offer on-site service or
provide a loaner unit while your MR-8HD is
under repair.
About copyrights
• It is prohibited by law to use any part of a CD
recording or video images or audio data for
which copyright is possessed by a third party
for commercial purposes such as contents,
broadcasts, sales, or distribution-any purpose
other than for your personal pleasure.
About damages
• Fostex is not responsible for any "direct
damage" or "indirect damage" caused by
using the MR-8HD.
Notes on audio interruption
• If you make recording or editing to a song
many times, audio may be occasionally
interrupted when the song is played back,
due to data fragmentation. Note that this is
not a malfunction.
Note on USB connection with Mac OS
• Before you connect the MR-8HD to a
Macintosh computer, make sure that the OS
is Mac OS X or higher. The MR-8HD supports
only Mac OS X or higher. If you connect the
MR-8HD to a Macintosh computer with Mac
OS lower than "OS X", song data on the
MR-8HD may be damaged.
