What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Recorded talking video to sd card for video shot with my dslr camera, then sync’ed in di vinci resolve. It captures the full brilliance of my instrument.
It seems most devices are micro-usb these days which is flatter so i ordered a 5 ft mini-usb for docking it to my macbook pro. I only wish it was wifi.
I wish zoom would modernize their user interface and put more easily-changeable controls at your fingertips. The interface is like traveling back in time to era of dot-matrix printers and trying to learn windows.
It sounds fantastic. Easy to use. I'm 63, so this stuff blows my mind.
Cons
It's one of my pet peeves, vendors who send you products that are unusable out of the box. Not a professional product. In addition, why layout $145.
Can only be used to record in mono and stereo mode only. Built-inmicrophone does not provide sufficient sound clarity.
The sd card amazon suggested was incompatible with the device. The zoom h4n asio driver is not meant to work with 64bit operating systems. This ruins time-stamps on the files. The usb storage screen consistently fails and doesn't save my files. It can... Read More
Major downgrade to rating because of dismal tech support.
Highlights
Quality
The sound quality is great, it's easy to use, has a solid and quality feel, is very portable, and is easy to use.
It has all of the important recording options and the sound quality is superb for the size.
The quality is raspy and highly dependent on background noises.
I had to set the levels of the h4n pro to 0.
Even after reading good reviews on sound quality, i was shocked at how good the sound is.
Otherwise, i need to hire a zoom expert before i do every interview -- someone who can deal with the complicated settings while... Read More
Packaging/appearance
Why something that simple wasn't included on the h4n, i'll never know.
I read a user's complaint that the plastic on the h4n was sticky but the pro version has a normal non stick matt plastic.
Competitiveness
Used alone, the zoom h4n mics give a pretty crisp sound.
So now, i'm using an h4n pro customized high gloss finish.
