Aug 16, 2008 01:47 pm In case you mean that Vista shows the warning that the USB device is not recognized when you turn the DP-01 on, that's normal. You get this message because the DP-01 is not in USB mode (yet). The plan is that you first make you recording(s), export the tracks to a special WAVE folder on the Tascam and then select USB mode.
How to export your recorded tracks to WAV:
- Activate the Menu
- Scroll down to WAVE
- Press the right cursor key
- Go to Export Track
- Select the tracks using the Insert and cursor up and/or down keys
- Press Yes/Enter
- When the DP-01 is done repeat pressing Exit until the menu is closed.
Tascam USB mode:
- Press Menu
- Go to Disk
- Scroll down to USB OPN/CLS
- Press Yes/Enter
- Press Enter again to execute
- Press Yes/Enter again for the "Are you sure?" message
Now you will be in USB mode and you will be able to access the DP-01's hard drive and download the exported WAVE file(s).
Remember: the DP-01 will stay in USB mode until you remove the device using the Safely Remove Hardware option in Vista and then press Exit on the Tascam!
Again you will see the hardware is not recognized message, but you can happily ignore it.
