Tascam HD-P2 User Manual

By default the HD-P2 automatically makes the first 

project whenever new media is used. To make addi-

tional projects, or switch between projects, use the 

Change/New Project menu from the Main menu.
In Figure 18 the menu shows the currently loaded 

project (Project 09) and any other projects on this 

Compact Flash card. If you select a non-loaded proj-

ect, like Project 02, the sub-menu provides the choices 

of 

 the project or 

. Deleting a project 

permanently removes all audio files and settings and 

cannot be undone.

If you select Create New Project you are prompted 

to choose a Project Template as in Figure 19. The 

Default Template is based on the Default Project 

Settings in the System Menu. There may also be a list 

of templates that you have saved from other projects, 

like the file Proj0900 shown in Figure 19.

The System Menu can be accessed at all times, with 

or without a Compact Flash card inserted. It controls
