ZOOM H4N - USER GUIDE
SETTING UP:
-You will need to provide 2 AA batteries and an SD card to use the recorder.
-The batteries go into the compartment on the back of the recorder. If you turn the switch called
‘Stamina’ on, it will stretch your battery time. However, it will limit your menu choices such as file
format and level control. Please leave ‘Stamina’ OFF unless your battery power is running low and
your file format and audio level have already been set. You can also use the AC adaptor. It plugs into
the small jack between the two XLR jacks on the bottom of the recorder.
-Plug the microphone into one of the XLR jacks on the bottom of the unit.
- Press #1 or #2 under the “Mic” button beside the transport controls. This activates the XLR
inputs on the bottom.
