In This Manual
This manual provides installation, setup and operating instructions for 360 Systems’ TCR Series of
digital audio production recorders. Instructions are provided for both the TCR4 and the TCR8.
TCR recorders perform the complex tasks of synchronous audio production and editing — using a
well designed, simple-to-use set of menus and buttons. This manual is organized to provide the user
with a quick understanding of how to use the TCR to accomplish those production and editing tasks.
If you are already familiar with synchronous audio production, you should find TCR to be nearly
intuitive. As such, an extensive index is provided at the end of this manual to assist you in locating
information quickly.
However, we recommend that you read the entire manual so that you will become familiar with all of
the features and helpful tools built into the TCR — each of which is designed to make your use of the
TCR more productive and enjoyable.
