If you want to record, mix, and export an entire arrangement on a high-quality pocket-sized device, try the H4n Pro from Zoom. This recorder lets you track all your guitar parts, your basses, your keys, your vocals, and your drums, all thanks to the combination XLR-1/4" inputs and the built-in stereo microphone. When you're done with tracking, apply all the guitar and mixing effects you need, balance the levels, and bounce down to a stereo track. If podcasting is your game, the H4n Pro is also a boon: simply take your favorite shogtun mic to the interview, and plug-it into the high-quality preamp. Flip on phantom power if need be, and you've got yourself everything you need to conduct a high-quality tape-sync in the field. The H4n's stereo X/Y microphone is capable of handling 140 dB SPL, making it suitable for tracking the loudest of instruments. If you're tracking or practicing, you'll appreciate the built-in metronome and the chromatic tuner. The H4n Pro can record up to four simultaneous channels of audio at resolutions and sample rates higher than CD quality, capturing sound sources in WAV and MP3 formats. It utilizes an SDHC card for storage and a USB connection for transferring material to your computer. A pair of standard AA batteries powers the device and can provide up to 10 hours of continuous recording. - Key Features at a Glance
-
- 4-Channel, 24-bit / 96 kHz recording for studio-grade audio
- Unlimited overdubbing to layer a panoply of parts
- Guitar and vocal FX including amp simulation, reverb, delay, and more
- Doubles as a 2-in/2-out USB audio interface for multitrack recording
- Phantom power for your favorite condenser mics
- 10 hours of operation from 2 AA batteries
- Built-In Stereo Mic in X/Y Configuration
- The onboard X/Y stereo microphone is capable of handling sound pressure levels of 140 dB. It can also cover a wide width whilst capturing any sound source in its center with precision. Both microphones are angle adjustable. You can change the angle of capture from 90° (for a focused stereo image) to 120° (for a wider stereo image) simply by twisting each mic's capsule.
- Back-Lit LDC Display
- This device utilizes a back-lit LDC display that makes reading its panel on stage more convenient.
- On-Board M/S Decoder
- Perhaps you'd prefer to capture stereo audio by means of an M/S technique, rather than through the H4n Pro's X/Y-configured capsules. Should you wish to plug external microphones into the unit's preamp for this very purpose, the H4n Pro provides an onboard MS decoder, allowing you to adjust the width of the stereo image within the device itself. This is useful both for sound design and for broadcasting.
- Connections
- Revamped with the same low-noise preamps as the H5 and H6, the H4n Pro provides combination inputs for XLR or 1/4" connections, both balanced and unbalanced. As such, it can handle mic/line and instrument signals. The 24 or 48V phantom power can be applied to both inputs. Additionally, a stereo 3.5mm jack for an external device, such as a lavalier microphone, is included. This jack supplies 2.5V power, if need be.
- Portable Pocket Interface
- Utilizing its mini-USB port, you can use the H4n Pro as a 2-in/2-out interface for computers, recording straight to your DAW via its preamps and monitoring through the 3.5mm stereo headphone jack.
- Multiple Recording Modes
- Record in stereo mode, four-channel mode (utilizing the on-board stereo mics in addition to the built-in preamps), or multitrack mode, which makes use of built-in effects, overdub functions, and the ability to work with prerecorded material. Additionally, you can use the prerecord function—ensuring you always capture audio starting from two seconds before the moment you press record—or the auto-record function, which allows the H4n Pro to start recording whenever it senses audio, and to stop as soon as the signal drops below a preset threshold.
- Onboard Effects
- The H4n Pro offers a variety of effects including compression, limiting, reverb, delay, echo, a low-cut filter, and more. You also get an onboard metronome and tuner, along with dozens of amp models and effects crafted for guitars and basses. Furthermore, you can loop playback, adjusting the pitch and speed of the audio independently; this makes the H4n Pro a tool suitable for transcriptions, whether you need to get the words of a particularly fast talker down on paper, or the notes of a particularly fast guitar solo under your fingers.
- Cubase LE and WaveLab LE Included
- The H4n Pro includes licenses for Steinberg's Cubase LE music production software as well as WaveLab LE audio editing software. This is particularly useful for those who hope to create their own music utilizing the Pro's USB audio interface function.
- Rubberized and Secure Construction
- The H4n Pro sports a rubberized body and revamped locking XLR/TRS connection points to keep your mic cables secure.
- Additional Features
-
- Record up to 140 dB SPL with X/Y microphones.
- Output/headphone jack with dedicated volume control.
- Built-in reference speaker for fast playback.
- Internal mix-down: Four-track to stereo and stereo to dual mono.
- Up to 99 marks per recording.
- Normalize (maximum gain) and Divide (file-splitting) functions.
- Mounts to mic stand or tripod or directly to a DSLR with optional Hot Shoe adapter.
