When you do not operate the MR-8HD for a long period of time, we recommend
disconnecting the power cord.
About the standby mode
The standby mode is the condition when the power cord is connected and the [POWER]
switch is set to OFF. In the standby mode, a small amount of power is consumed and the
indicator of the [POWER] switch flashes slowly.
When you press the [POWER] switch to
turn on the power for the first time, the
MR-8HD starts up and the display shows
the screen as below (note that it takes
some time until the screen as below is
shown).
This screen shows that the demo song is
loaded and stopped at the beginning (ABS
0) of the song named "FOSTEX_FEVER".
Follow the procedure described on the
next page to play back the demo song.
