Zoom H1essential User Manual

Enabling the recording start tone
Half-second tone signals (recording start tones) can be output from the PHONE/LINE OUT jack when
recording is started.
Since recording start tones are also written to recording files, when recording audio for video with the
H1essential, sending its output signal to the camera input can make synchronizing audio and video easier.
