3 – Preparations

Connecting to an HS-8

Use the included cable to connect the REMOTE connector

on the rear panel of this unit with the HS-8’s REMOTE

connector.

CAUTION

The REMOTE connector is not an Ethernet (LAN) connector.

Never connect a cable that is connected to a network to

this unit or an HS-8.

Always turn the HS-8 unit power OFF before connecting

or disconnecting a cable. Connecting a cable while the

power is ON could cause damage.

Using a commercially-available

cable

Under ordinary circumstances, use the dedicated

connection cable (5 m) that is included with the unit.
If the included dedicated cable is not long enough or

there is some other problem, use a commercially-available

category 6 LAN cable with straight wiring. When doing so,

however, make certain that the cable meets the following

requirements.

Always use a shielded cable.

The maximum cable length is 10 m.


Depending on the quality and length of the cable being

used, static might appear on the color display or noise

might be heard when monitoring. If this occurs, attach

ferrite cores to the cable and the HS-8 power cord.

Using the HS-8 SIGNAL GND

terminal

Depending on the operating conditions, flicker might

appear on the color display of this unit or noise might

be heard in the monitoring sound. Should this occur, use

the SIGNAL GND terminal on the rear panel of the HS-8.

(Please prepare a cable to connect to the SIGNAL GND

terminal. No cable is provided with the unit.)

Setting the HS-8

1 Make the following settings to the HS-8 unit as

necessary.

Online function

If the online function is set to Enable, this unit’s

ON LINE key is enabled, and on line playback can

be turned ON (on line playback) or OFF (monitor

playback).
If the on line function is set to Disable, this unit’s ON

LINE key is disabled, and sound is always output from

all the output connectors.
For details about setting the online function, see

“Enabling online functions” of “9 – Online functions” in

the HS-8 Owner’s Manual.

Play Mode

Set the play mode as desired.
In One Take mode, playback stops after playing a

single take. In All Take mode, all the takes in the folder

are played in succession.
For details about play mode settings, see “GENERAL

page” of “6 – Internal Settings and Operations” in the

HS-8 Owner’s Manual.
