About SD cards
This unit uses SD cards for recording and playback.
This unit can use SD cards that are Class 10 or higher and
compatible with SDHC or SDXC standards.
A list of SD cards that have been confirmed for use with this
unit can be found on the TASCAM website. Alternatively, please
contact TASCAM customer support service.
Precautions for use
SD cards are delicate media.
In order to avoid damaging SD cards, please take the following
precautions when handling them.

o When transporting them, put them into cases, for example.
SD card write protection
This unit writes settings data for recording/playback folders on
media. Since setting information cannot be written to write-
protected SD cards, settings for recording/playback folders will
not be retained when the unit is restarted and performance will
be otherwise affected.

2 - Names and Functions of Parts
Top panel
This section explains the displays and controls on the top panel.
NOTE
The various buttons that have indicators remain dimly lit even when off, making them easier to see and use even in dark situations.
Channel section Master section
1Touchscreen
o Resistive-type (pressure-sensitive) 800×480 LCD color
touch panels.
o Shows a variety of information.
o Tap and swipe the screens being shown to operate them.
o Only one point on one screen can be operated at a time.
o Set the brightness on the PREFERENCES Screen. (See
“PREFERENCES screen” on page 37.)
2LCD knobs and indicators
o When LCD knobs can be used to control items shown on
the touchscreen, their indicators light.
o Turn those LCD knobs to adjust various parameters shown
on the touchscreen.
NOTE
i Parameter adjustment with LCD knobs
i Turning an LCD knob without pressing it will change the
parameter value by one step with each click. This enables
precise parameter adjustment.
i When adjusting a parameter with high resolution, turning
an LCD knob while pressing it will change the parameter
value by multiple steps with each click. This enables
efficient parameter adjustment.
i By turning any LCD knob while pressing the HOME key, the
brightness of the touchscreens, channel screens, various
indicators and the lamp connected to the LAMP connector
on the rear panel can all be adjusted at the same time.
i By pressing and turning any LCD knob while pressing the
HOME key, the brightness of the touchscreens and channel
screens can be adjusted at the same time.
i By turning an LCD knob while pressing the MENU key, the
contrast of the channel screen that corresponds to that knob
can be adjusted. (See“13 - List of shortcut operations” on
page 260.)
8TASCAM Sonicview 16XP/Sonicview 24XP V1.5.0

2 - Names and Functions of Parts
3MUTE keys and indicators
o These mute/unmute modules assigned to the selected
layer.
o When a MUTE key is on (lit), the signal of the
corresponding module is muted.
o Depending on the DCA or Mute Group, the key will blink
when muted.
o When the SENDS ON FADER key is on (Sends On Fader
mode is on), these turn sends on/off to the selected bus
from the modules assigned to the selected layer (send
off when MUTE key lit, send on when MUTE key unlit).
For modules that do not have a send on/off function
for the subject bus, however, these mute/unmute the
corresponding module. (For example, this applies when
the subject bus is FX 1 and the module is FXRTN 1 or the
subject bus is MIX 1 and the module is MIX 1.)
4SOLO keys and indicators
o These turn soloing on/off for modules assigned to the
selected layer.
o When these keys are on (lit), the signals of the
corresponding modules will be sent to the SOLO L/R bus.
o The keys will blink if soloing is on because of DCA.
NOTE
Press this key while pressing the MENU key to open the
SOLO/OSCILLATOR page, which is where various solo
settings can be made, of the TALKBACK / MONITOR / SOLO /
OSC SETUP screen. (See “Making solo and built-in oscillator
settings”on page 73 and “13 - List of shortcut operations”
on page 260.)
5SEL keys and indicators
o Press these keys to open the MODULE Screens
for modules assigned to the selected layer. The
corresponding keys light. If the MODULE Screen shown
for a module has been changed on the touchscreen, the
corresponding SEL key will light.
o When a lit SEL key is pressed, the MODULE screen for
that module will be shown on the touchscreen that
corresponds to that SEL key if it is not already shown.
If the MODULE screen for that module is shown on the
touchscreen that corresponds to that SEL key, it will close
and the SEL key will become unlit.
NOTE
Pressing one of these keys while pressing the HOME key will
set the fader level for the corresponding module to 0 dB.
(When Sends On Fader mode is on, the SEND level will be set
instead.) (See“13 - List of shortcut operations” on page 260.)
6Channel screen
o These show the following information for modules
assigned to the selected layer.
A Module name
B User module name (name set by user)*
C GATE/EXPANDER/DE-ESSER gain reduction meter
D COMP/DUCKER gain reduction meter
E Module icon*
F Fader level value
G Module meter (shows signal level of set metering point)
i If the module is stereo, a stereo module meter will
be shown.
i Each module meter has an overload indicator at its
top. They will light when the signal level reaches or
exceeds -0.00026 dBFS (16-bit full-scale value).
i The area below -60 dBFS at the bottom of the
module meters will light when above -70 dBFS.
* See “MODULE NAME screen”on page 182 for details
about setting user module names and module icons.
o When the SENDS ON FADER key is on (Sends On Fader
mode is on), the black and white display is inverted and
“SEND to [bus name]”will be shown on a black band at the
bottom of the screen.
o When the FIX LAYER key (s) has been used to lock 8
channels to the layer, “FIXED LAYER” will be shown on a
white band at the top of the screen.
o When the Sends On Fader mode is on and 8 channels
have been locked to the layer, the black and white display
will be inverted and“SEND to [bus name]” and FIXED
LAYER” will be shown on a black band at the bottom of the
screen.
o Use the PREFERENCES Screen to set the brightness and
contrast of the channel screens. (See “PREFERENCES
screen” on page 37.)

7Channel color bars
These show the colors set for the modules assigned to the
selected layer. (See “Changing set module colors”on page
184.)
8Channel faders
o When the SENDS ON FADER key is off (Sends On Fader
mode is off), these adjust the fader levels for the modules
assigned to the selected layer.
o When the SENDS ON FADER key is on (Sends On Fader
mode is on), these adjust the send levels to the selected
bus for the modules assigned to the selected layer.
9Output meters
These are output meters for the MAIN L/R bus.
The OVER indicators light red when they reach or exceed
-0.00026 dBFS (16-bit full-scale value).
The bottommost indicator lights when above -70 dBFS.
0HOME key
o When the Menu Screen or a settings screen is open, press
to return to the Home Screen on all touchscreens.
o Press and hold this key and the MENU key together for
5 seconds to open the LOCK SETUP screen. (See “LOCK
