How to use the Zoom H4N portable audio recorder 

It's taken me 2 weeks to take it out of the box, but this video made me feel much more confident to learn more! Thank you!! I'm 67!

you recorded this in 2016 but it literally saved my life today as I am trying to learn how to use the H4N I have now. Thank you!

Excellent video. No distracting background music. Just the instructions, clear and complete. This is the way it should be done.

Got my H4n today, saw the size of the manual, audibly said "nope" and found this tutorial. Thank you for your service.

good grief. In a monster sea of unhelpful confusing and badly executed tutorial videos its so refreshing to find something in a very different camp. Excellent content, superbly executed.

*This is sooo good: clear, concise, well-thought out!* _How on earth can people give thumbs down to this???_

This is a literally perfect tutorial

I couldn't understand the Zoom H4N instructions from other videos, or the instructions were insufficient. This video, by contrast, tells me everything I need to know to understand what I'm doing, and get up and running using the H4N today. Thank you.

Dude you have no idea how many garbage videos I had to go through to find this! Thank you for the very helpful tutorial!

This video was so well done and was exactly what I needed. Thanks for taking time to record it.

Thanks for this awesome video! The H4N will be used on a documentary shoot I'm doing with my class of 11-14yr olds this week. I feel super confident after this refresher

Hadn’t used my H4N for ages and this was an excellent reminder.

Extraordinarily helpful tutorial. Thanks!

Thank you for this concise, well-planned overview of the H4n!

this is one of the best, clear, tutorials i have ever watched. thank you

Thank you! Direct and to the point. Got me up and running in 8 minutes and 35 seconds. Much obliged!

clear, concise, and extremely helpful

Great explanation on the Zoom H4n. I recently started to use it more often but I was lost in some functions. This is a great guide in learning how to use it. I really appreciate the video.

Best guide for a new or forgot stuff user. It shows pretty much all what you need to get started. I have the H4n Pro newer gen but it's basically pretty much the samething. Awesome editing and explanations, thanks alot.

Y’all saved my behind. Thank you for producing a professional masterpiece.

Excellent work, clear, no fluff, high quality. Thanks.

Just started using the device, this is an absolute gem. Thank you!

Finally, a professionally made "Tutorial Video," without the distracting and crappy background music so many amateur or novice video filmmakers like to use. Also, no crappy introduction that starts out with "Hey Guys," Or "Hey Everybody What's up? or, "hey guys what's," or some other useless introduction so many amateur video makers love to use. RU-vid is saturated with so many filmmakers who do a combination of these things I find so annoying and distracting. For those reasons and more I have opted to quit watching many videos. Thank you for this well thought and presented presentation and tutorial video. It answered a lot of questions that I have about my H4N recorder that I've wondered about. I misplaced my owner's manual a while ago and haven't been able to find and study it. This video answered all my questions and concerns nicely.

Perfect step-by-step guide for getting started! Thank You!

I bought this 3 years after this video was put out and wow, it was exactly what I was looking for.

Waoh that is one great tutorial, I've been using it for a while now but I finally feel like I have a better understanding of its functions and abilities, thank you!

Top notch tutorial. It’s how a ‘how to’ (read tutorial) should be offered. Every RU-vid tutorial poster needs to tear a page for your book.

Thank you for the great tutorial!!!

Outstanding! Thank you so much!!! I'm preparing as mine will arrive tomorrow and this video is so great!

Recorded back in 2016 and I'm using this tutorial in 2019 after finding a freebie H4n and H1 in a box of random Studio gear I bought LOL. Thanks uploader! 🤜💯🤛

Wish you were my teacher.. this is one of the best learning tutorial for beginners.. Thanks

Thank u for this video, very well spoken, and instructions very clearly made.

Jolly good! Extremely helpful, it helped me a lot. Thank you!

I probably said it before but you have done a great great job on showing how to use the h4n zoom Keith

Great equipment the Zoom H4N timeless even in 2023 superior design and performance

I've watched several videos on the H4N. This is the best BY FAR! The only thing you didn't touch on was how to use this while plugged into a computer to shoot a video for RU-vid.

Absolutely phenomenal tutorial.

Quite simply the very best tutorial - thank you x

amazing video, love from India

Hi, great video! Thanks so much for taking the time to put this together!! Do you know if there is a remote mic adapter for the H4? Something I could plug into the "2" input that would connect to a remote mic placed elsewhere in the same room? Thanks, keep up the great vids!

This is very well explained thank you sir 🙏

So simple, thank you for the video

I love this, thank you so much. However, one question, if we are plugging two mics into the bottom to record my podcast partner and I, can you do that in Stereo? Manual seems to indicate we need to use MTR. Help?

Thank u for such illustrative talk , but I’m having important question If I’m doing some own songs which mode is best to obtain studio like effects , thnx alot

Thx for this amazing great quick tutorial 👍

Very good review. Nicely done.

Quick question. Could I plug this into my Samsung phone to video using it. Plus gain great audio from the recorder so that I could upload the video with great sound?

This was a very good how-to video.

Very informational. Thank you.

*What a superb video!!* _How come so few subscribers??_ -Strange world!-

This was very helpful, thanks!

Amazing. Thanks for making this video. Can this Zoom H4N be used for ASMR videos? or Do I need to connect any external microphone with this ? Thank you

Nicely done thanks you so much.

Hello! Do you know, can I record 2 different stereo channels from 2 ext mics (bottom 1 & 2 jacks) simultaneously? Thank you!

Excellent presentation

Simply perfect, perfectly simple...

Well thanks for this very clear video.

Great tutorial. Thank you!

Hello! Thank you for this tutorial. I tried to register an interview with 2 external microphones, using the STEREO mode but when I upload the tracks on Audacity for instance, I only have 1 track. I would like to know how I could get 2 separate tracks. Thank you in advance for your help. Rachel

Excellent job I've been using my h4n zoom for 7 years I love it

Thank You! Much appreciated!!

Thanks nice demo can i use it as karaoke suppose if there music in sd can i sing while recording?

Best video 🎉I just wish u can explain every single detail and thing im this im new to this and I like to learn I wanna know every thing this lil thing can do lol

Best tutorial on this device

this is great. Now I have separate tracks for piano and vocals while recording live! Q: Can the zoom have different monitor levels while recording this setup in MTR mode? I have vocals on 1 and piano on 2. Input levels are fine now but I want the piano to be lower in my monitor and the vocals higher so I can hear myself sing without blasting the piano in my earphones.

Best explanation 👍

Great, exactly what I needed, thanks!

Excellent, concise tutorial. It gets right to the point. The only critique I have is that you don't pronounce the "T" in button, and you mention the word button a lot.

extremely helpful! tysm!

VERY INFORMATIVE THANK YOU

very informative, thank you!!
