5 Meter display selection button

Allows you to select how many meters are displayed. Three display modes are available.

RECORDER screen (INPUT/OUTPUT/TITLE LIST

screen)

You can connect a USB storage device to the console's iPad connector and use the console

to record audio to the device, play back audio files stored on the device, and manage audio

files stored on the device.

When a USB storage device is connected to the iPad connector, your TF series console can

record its internal signals to the device as an audio file and play back files that are stored on

the device.

You can also connect an iOS device to the console and use your iPad or iPhone as an audio

input source for the mixer.

Recorded files are formatted as 48 kHz, 24-bit stereo WAV files.

Playback is supported for WAV and MP3 (MPEG-1 Audio Layer-3) files.

These features allow you to record signals from the STEREO and AUX buses to the USB

storage device, and use audio files that are saved on your iPad or USB storage device as the

source for the console's ST IN 1 channel.

NOTE

• Simultaneous recording and playback is not supported.

• While recording, the signal being recorded cannot be used as an INPUT channel.

• Compatible USB storage devices must be formatted in FAT32. If necessary, connect the device to the

USB connector (on the right side of the top panel) and use the contextual menu in the SAVE/LOAD

screen to format the device.

• Use only USB storage devices with a sector size of 512 bytes. (Hard drives larger than 2 TB cannot be

used.)

• USB storage devices with an allocation unit size under 4096 bytes are not supported. (This may apply

to small-capacity USB memory devices.)

• For recording, we recommend using a high-speed device, such as a hard disk drive (HDD) or solid-state

drive (SSD). USB memory devices and iOS devices can be used for playback only.

• For playback, MP3 files must be encoded at 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz, with a bit rate of 128 kbps–320 kbps.

Files encoded using variable bit rate (VBR) can be played back, but file length and elapsed playback

time may not be displayed properly.

• To enable operability from TF StageMix, the number of audio files that can be placed in the same folder

is limited to 150 files. If the total number exceeds 150, including the number of folders, then they are not

displayed in the Title list. To use more than 150 files, place them in separate folders (V4.0 and later).
