Thanks for the great video on this device. I'm considering purchasing this for my RU-vid videos. My only suggestion would be to see how it works with mics plugged into the jacks on the bottom. Barring that, it was a great run down on the device, and the little things that waste time when you setting up and getting going with recording audio. All the best, Cheers Rick

@mattmarkus4868 3 года назад

Thanks for the great video, very straight forward and to the point. Much appreciated. Question- do you know why the two external inputs record to just one wav file? Since you can use two and set the rec levels individually, I'm just curious why you wouldn't get two wav files for those, and then the one wav file for the onboard mics- give a total of 3 wav files to mix. If you know... thanks!

@kbowman0016 3 года назад

I would like to know this as well, Did you ever find out?

@fun_ghoul 3 года назад

@@kbowman0016 You can use "MTR" (multitrack) mode for up to 4 tracks, one for each of the L/R mics on top (or the L and R from a stereo mic you plug in the 3.5mm jack on the back) and one or both of the combo jacks on the bottom.

Reverb option available ?

@MasterSumai 4 года назад

When you're recording music, lets say a 12 song band set. When you press stop to stop recording the first song, does it make itself ready to record the next track separately or start again at the end of the first track like one continuous track. Guess what I mean is does it separate each song you record ? And does it allow you to finalize each individual track ? Or once you upload the music to your computer, and you can finalize the track onto a cd ?? Thanks for your help & your video !

what does the "hold" feature do?

@randy8725 4 года назад

Get video for getting up and running on my new H4N Pro. I'm starting a podcast. I've ordered a cable for the purpose of recording an interview from someone's phone and then to the recorder. I'll be using my studio mic (AT4050) directly into the H4N and then Google Voice for the connection to the recorder. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks!

@TheSuburbanGardenista 5 месяцев назад

Would you recommend doing an interview with this recorder by holding it in my hand and moving it between me and my interviewee - would it pick up the sound well without the lapel mic and be able to have both of us record our voices in the same clip with the one recorder?

@HolyHoly_music 4 года назад

I can't see Mode in menu. I know it was there but now I am not able to change the mode. What should I do :( I have no idea what i have done and how to change it.

@Sloth Tech TV Thanks for useful info , Three questions please: 1. which microphone capsule is used for Zoom H4 Pro? 2. And which of the capsules are best for recording educational youtube videos? 3. which device is giving best sound quality for recording educational youtube video, Zoom H4 Pro or Zoom H8? Much appreciated if you could help.

Awesome review...THANK YOU!!! I would like to be able to demo high end home stereo equipment and put it on RU-vid...do you recommend the oem mics or using something else with this unit....my goal being to record very high quality audio..base and highs..etc. thank you for your time and help!! Best Wishes!!

@fun_ghoul 3 года назад

It doesn't matter what you use to record, within reason. The main limitation isn't _your_ equipment, but that of your audience. Like, you can never replicate what you hear live for someone using the earbuds that came with their Samsuck phone. The main thing is that your voice should be clear and audible, and the built-in mics will be more than sufficient for that. I presume you've already figured this out given the vintage of your comment, but in case anyone else was wondering...yeah.

Is this able to be used outside? Like if there is a small speaking event and I put it on a tripod near the speaker, will it capture their audio clearly or will they have to speak directly into it?

@blackswan4486 3 года назад

When i used this recorder (without a mic) the sound at first sounded good when I played the SD card file on my computer, but then when I clicked on and opened the same exact file, the suond went a bit in and out.

I got this used on eBay for $150. Seems like a good deal but did not get anything with it and no instructions. Still a decent deal? I have to use this for voice-overs when the basement is loud due to the on-demand furnace during the winter. The alternate location for me will be the walk-in closet in the master bedroom.

Did you change the SD Card? For 2 GB it takes some seconds to load, for 32 GB about 4 min!! loading/starting time. Thats why i use a 2 or 4 GB Card in my device.
