Names and functions of parts

Front panel

US-2x2HR

US-4x4HR

1 SIG indicators

These light green when signals (of at least −32 dBFS) are input.

2 GAIN knobs

Use to adjust the input levels of the input jacks.

Adjust these so that the PEAK indicators do not light red.

3 PEAK indicators

These light red when signals are about to distort (−1 dBFS or higher).

4 USB indicator

This lights when the USB connection is working.

5 LINE OUT knob

Use to adjust the output level of the LINE OUT (BALANCED) 1-2 (t) jacks on the

back of the unit.

10 TASCAM US-2x2HR/US-4x4HR

6 PHONES knob

Use to adjust the output level of the PHONES jack ( and jacks on US-

4x4HR).

VCAUTION

Before connecting headphones, minimize the volume with the PHONES knob.

Failure to do so could result in a sudden loud noise that could harm hearing, for

example.

7 Phantom power indicator

The indicator lights when the phantom power switch is set to +48V.

ATTENTION

When operating the US-4x4HR with USB bus power, use a commercially-available

Type-C–Type-C cable to connect it to a USB Type-C port on the computer. If there

is a problem with the power supply, the phantom power indicator will blink. In this

case, use the included AC adapter (PS-P1220E, DC12 V).

8 Phantom power switch

Use this switch to provide +48 V phantom power to the IN1 and IN2 XLR jacks

(and IN3/IN4 on the US-4x4HR).

VCAUTION

Set the LINE OUT and PHONES knobs to their minimum values before changing the

phantom power setting. Depending on the connected mics, sudden loud noises

from monitoring equipment could occur, and this could damage the equipment or

harm hearing.

9 IN1/IN2 jacks

On the US-2x2HR, these are XLR/TRS combo jacks for analog input.

On the US-4x4HR, these are separate XLR and standard TRS jacks for analog input.

These support high impedance input, including direct guitar input.

Use the MIC/LINE INST switches (q) to select balanced line (MIC/LINE) or

unbalanced (INST) input for the TRS jacks.

When directly connecting a guitar, bass or other instrument, set the MIC/LINE

INST switch (q) to INST.

0 IN3/IN4 jacks (US-4x4HR only)

These XLR analog mic input and standard line level TRS jacks are balanced input

jacks.

ATTENTION

On the US-4x4HR, IN1/IN2 (9) and IN3/IN4 (0) inputs each have two jacks (XLR

and TRS). Do not input signals through both jacks of the same input at the same

time. If signals are input through both at the same time, neither signal will be

received properly.

ENGLISH

TASCAM US-2x2HR/US-4x4HR 11

q MIC/LINE INST switches

Set according to the IN1/IN2 jack input sources.

Set to “MIC/LINE” when connecting electronic instruments, audio devices, mics

and similar equipment. Set to “INST” when connecting a guitar, bass or other

equipment with high output impedance.

w MONITOR BALANCE knob

Use this to adjust the monitoring balance between the signals from this unit’s

input jacks and the output signals from the computer.

e PHONES jack

Use this standard stereo jack to connect stereo headphones. (Use and jacks

on US-4x4HR.)

Connecting the power

When using a computer (Windows/Mac)

When this unit is connected to a computer using an included USB cable, it will

operate using USB bus power, so connecting a separate power supply device is not

necessary.

ATTENTION

When operating the US-4x4HR with USB bus power, use a commercially-available

Type-C–Type-C cable to connect it to a USB Type-C port on the computer. If there

is a problem with the power supply, the phantom power indicator will blink. In this

case, use the included AC adapter (PS-P1220E, DC12 V).

NOTE

Depending on the computer, the USB port might not be able to supply enough

power to operate the unit. In this case, connect and use a dedicated AC adapter.

When using an iOS device

When this unit is connected to an iOS device, connecting a dedicated AC adapter

is necessary to supply power to the unit. Connect the dedicated AC adapter before

connecting the USB cable.

Using with an AC adapter

US-2x2HR

Connect an AC adapter (PS-P520E, DC5V, sold separately) to the DC IN 5V connector.

See “Using with an AC adapter” in “4 – Preparation” of the Reference Manual for

instructions about connecting the adapter.

ATTENTION

We highly recommend using a dedicated AC adapter (PS-P520E, DC5 V, sold

separately) with the US-2x2HR. When using another external power supply device,

use one with the following specications.

• Power supply voltage: 5 V

• Power supply current: 700 mA or more

Using a power supply device with specications other than the above could cause

malfunction, overheating, re or other problems.

If trouble should occur, stop using the unit and contact the retailer where you

purchased it or a TEAC service center to request repair.
