Making input settings and monitoring adjustments
When using the H4essential as an audio interface, input settings and monitoring adjustments can be made
in the same way as when using it as a recorder.
See the references below and make input settings and monitoring adjustments.
Reference Explanation
Enabling tracks for recording Select inputs from MIC (built-in XY mic) and inputs 1–2.
Converting built-in XY mic input to mono Input from the built-in XY mic can be mixed to a single
channel and handled as mono audio.
Setting plug-in power Make this setting when a mic that is compatible with plug-in
power is connected to the MIC/LINE IN jack.
Setting phantom power Inputs 1 and 2 support phantom power and can provide +48
V. Turn on phantom power when condenser mics that require
it are connected.
This can be turned on/off separately for each input.
Reducing noise (Lo Cut) Low frequencies can be cut to reduce the sound of wind and
vocal pop noises, for example.
This can be set separately for each input.
Enabling stereo linking Using stereo-linking, input signals can also be handled as
stereo audio.
When the stereo setting is used, input 1 will become the left
channel and input 2 will become the right channel.
When the mid-side stereo setting is used, input 1 will become
the Mid signal and input 2 will become the Side signal. Mid
captures sound front and center while Side captures sound
left and right. The stereo width can be changed by adjusting
the Side level.
Setting the side level when recording
mid-side stereo
The side level of inputs set to mid-side stereo can be set
before recording, allowing the stereo width of that input
sound to be adjusted.
Monitoring input sounds Use headphones, for example, to monitor input sounds and
adjust the volume.
Adjusting the monitoring balance of
input sounds
On the Mixer Screen, the monitoring balance of all input
sounds can be adjusted. Moreover, the volumes of the input
sounds and their stereo mix signal can be checked with the
level meters.
