This manual is the Quick Operation Guide for the Model D824/D1624.
This manual describes important information for using the recorder for the
first time including "Preparation of a recording medium" and "Formatting a
disk". Please read this manual carefully before using the recorder.

In addition, this manual also describes the basic operations such as "Connect-
ing the recorder to an external mixing console", "Basic recording for analog
source" and "Basic recording for digital source". Even if this is the first time
for you to use the recorder, you will be able to understand the basic opera-
tions of the recorder by reading this manual.
To use all of the recorder's functions, please also read the separate Reference
manual. The pages of the Reference manual to be referred to are shown on
page 25.



Because all keys and buttons on the Model D824 and D1624 are identical,
most descriptions are done based on the Model D1624. Please note any dif-
ferences between the Model D824 and D1624, the explanation or note for
each model will be described.

                                                 Recording media
The recorder is not equipped with any recording medium for recording/playback such as a hard
disk drive (in this manual, we call the installed medium "current drive"). Therefore, to execute the
multitrack recording using the recorder, you have to separately prepare a current drive.
For a current drive, you can use any universal "E-IDE" hard disk drive* which has been tested and
approved by FOSTEX. A hard disk drive can be installed in the removable case attached.

          
   The updated information on the operation-confirmed HD and backup media for D824/D1624 is
   mentioned in the following Fostex international web site.

                   Preparation for the current drive
This recorder has a slot for an optional hard disk. First you need to install a hard disk into the
removable case included in this recorder package before you install it into the slot.
The following instructions assume that you have already purchased an E-IDE hard disk unit.

                                                                                                       Dust cover

                                                                     Fixing screws

                                                                                                         Insulation seals

 Be sure to turn off the power to the recorder (or remove the power cable from the AC outlet) before
 installing a hard disk.


                               Installing a hard disk in a removable case

disk into it.

     direction of the arrow.
