H4n Pro features

Introduction

• An all-in-one handy recorder.

The H4n Pro is lightweight (294 g) with a very compact design and is equipped

with high quality stereo condenser microphones arranged in an XY pickup

pattern, a built-in speaker, SD card recording, a mixer and internal effects.

You can enjoy recording and creating your own music anytime, anywhere with

the H4n Pro.

• Versatile eld recorder with multi-track capability.

The H4n Pro is capable of recording in several different operation modes.

STEREO mode enables high-quality stereo recording. 4CH mode can record 2

sound sources simultaneously in stereo. MTR mode allows playback of 4 tracks

and recording of 2 tracks simultaneously. You can use it as a eld recorder to

record melodies and band performances on-the-y and to capture sound effects.

You can also use it as a multitrack recorder to make songs by overdubbing instru-

ments and vocals. Furthermore, in STAMINA mode you can record in stereo for

up to 11 hours using batteries only.

• New 90/120°-variable XY stereo mic

The H4n Pro allows you to adjust the angle of the onboard microphones to address

a wider range of recording scenarios. Set the microphones to 120° for a wider area

of sound, or set them to 90° for a more focused sound source. Either way, the

mics retain their XY conguration, so you can record natural stereo sound with

no phase cancellation.

• Connect mics and guitars directly using combined XLR/

standard phone jacks

The H4n Pro includes input jacks for connections that can accommodate a variety

of recording styles. Microphones, including stereo mics and condensers, electric

guitars, basses and keyboards can all be connected directly.

• Use as an audio interface and SD card with a computer

An onboard USB 2.0 Hi-Speed port allows direct connection to a computer. You

can use it as an audio interface with built-in effects (sampling rate limited to 44.1

kHz when using the effects). You can also use the H4n Pro as an SD card reader

for your computer. You can transfer recorded les to your computer and use them

to create audio CDs or work with them in DAW software.

• Tuner, metronome, karaoke and various other functions

The tuner functions include not only a standard chromatic tuner, but also support

less common tunings, such as for 7-string guitars and 5-string basses. The metro-

nome function is convenient for practice and multitrack recording. You can also

use the H4n Pro as a practice device.

Use the SPEED function to adjust the playback speed from 50–150%. The

KARAOKE functions include center canceling for stereo les and variable key

control, making it valuable for language learning and voice training.

Please read this manual carefully to fully understand the functions of the H4n Pro so that you can make the most of it for many years.

Introduction / Safety precautions for users

Safety precautions for users

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

In this manual, warning and caution symbols are used to

highlight dangers of accidents and troubles. Users should

read them to prevent accidents. The meanings of these sym-

bols are as follows:

If the users ignore this symbol and handle the de-

vice the wrong way, serious injury or death could

result.

If the users ignore this symbol and handle the de-

vice the wrong way, bodily injury and damage to

the equipment could result.

An action that is mandatory

An action that is prohibited

Please read through the following safety tips and precautions

to ensure hazard-free use of the H4n Pro.

Power requirements

AC adapter operation

Make sure to use only a DC5 center plus 1A

(ZOOM AD 14) AC adapter. The use of other

than the specied type could damage the unit

and pose a safety hazard.

Connect the AC adapter only to an AC outlet

that supplies the rated voltage required by the

adapter.

When disconnecting the AC adapter from the

AC outlet, make sure to grasp the adapter itself.

Never pull on the cable.

During lightning or when not using for an ex-

tended period, disconnect the AC adapter from

the AC outlet.

Battery operation

Use 2 commercially-available 1.5V AA batteries

(alkaline dry cell batteries or nickel metal hydride

batteries).

When not using for an extended period, remove

the batteries from the unit.

If battery leakage has occurred, wipe the battery

compartment and battery terminals carefully to

remove all remnant of battery uid.

When using the unit, the battery compartment

cover should be closed.

Install batteries with the correct +/− orientations.

Do not use new and old batteries together. Do

not use batteries of dierent brands or types

together.

Environment

To prevent unexpected troubles and malfunc-

tions, avoid using the H4n Pro in environments

where it will be exposed to:

• Extreme temperatures

• Heat sources such as radiators or stoves

• High humidity or moisture

• Excessive dust or sand

• Excessive vibration or shock

Handling

The H4n Pro is a precision instrument. Do not

exert undue pressure on the keys and other

controls. Take care not to drop or bump it, and

do not subject it to shock or excessive pressure,

which can cause serious trouble.

Take care that no foreign objects (coins, pins,

etc.) or liquids (water, alcoholic drinks or juice)

enter the unit.

Do not place the H4n Pro speaker close to other

precision instruments (watches and computers),

electronic medical instruments or magnetic cards.

Connecting cables and input and output jacks

You should always turn o the power to the H4n Pro

and all other equipment before connecting or discon-

necting any cables. Make sure to disconnect all con-

nection cables and the power cord before moving

the H4n Pro.

Alterations

Never open the case of the H4n Pro or attempt

to modify the product in any way since this

could result in damage to the unit.

Volume

Do not use the H4n Pro at a loud volume for

a long time since this could cause hearing im-

pairment.

USAGE PRECAUTIONS

Electrical interference

For safety considerations, the H4n Pro has been designed

to provide maximum protection against the emission of elec-

tromagnetic radiation from inside the device, and protection

from external interference. However, equipment that is very

susceptible to interference or that emits powerful electro-

magnetic waves should not be placed near the H4n Pro, as

the possibility of interference cannot be ruled out entirely.

With any type of digital control device, the H4n Pro included,

electromagnetic interference could cause malfunction and

could corrupt or destroy data. Care should be taken to mini-

mize the risk of damage.

Cleaning

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the H4n Pro. If necessary,

slightly moisten the cloth. Do not use abrasive cleanser, wax,

or solvents (such as paint thinner or cleaning alcohol), since

these may dull the nish or damage the surface.

Breakdown and malfunction

If the unit becomes broken or malfunctions, immediately dis-

connect the AC adapter, turn the power o and disconnect

other cables. Contact the store where you bought the unit or

ZOOM service with the following information: product mod-

el, serial number and specic symptoms of breakdown or

malfunction, along with your name, address and telephone

number.

Please keep this manual in a convenient

place for future reference.

Movable

High quality microphones in an XY

pattern ensure a natural stereo image

when recording sounds.

Stereo recording is often done by placing two micro-

phones in a V-shaped conguration. Pointing microphones

outward will result in stereo separation, but the recording

will lack denition around the center, resulting in a poor

stereo image.

The H4n Pro utilizes an XY stereo mic conguration. By

placing two microphones in a crossed pattern (opposite

angles), the H4n Pro can cover a wide area and capture

sound sources in the center with clarity and denition.

Sounds reach both mics simultaneously, so no phase

cancellation occurs between right and left channels.

Mode overview

7-1 Mode overview

Mode overview

The H4n Pro has four operation modes: STEREO, STAMINA, 4CH (4-channel) and MTR (multitrack).

Choose the mode according to your need.

• STEREO mode

You can easily create a stereo recording

using the built-in microphones or an

external microphone.

The STEREO mode is convenient for

recording live band performances,

acoustic instruments, voices, lectures,

and subtle soundscapes. You can then

use it to play stereo WAV and MP3

les.

• STAMINA mode

This mode enables longer battery life.

STAMINA mode is similar to STEREO

mode, but has less functions.

The continuous usage time with alkaline

batteries is approximately 11 hours (but

could be less depending on usage).

When in STAMINA mode, the H4n

Pro can only record/playback in WAV

44.1kHz/16-bit and MP3 formats.

To enable STAMINA

mode when using batteries,

set the STAMINA switch

before turning the power on.

NOTE:

How to use WAV and MP3 format

• WAV les with no compression are used for

high-quality sound recording. Since data is not

compressed, les are larger than MP3 les.

• MP3 les have lower sound quality because of

data compression, but are useful to save SD card

capacity and record more.

HINT:

Types of WAV les

44.1/48/96 kHz indicates the sampling rate of the

analog-to-digital conversion. 16/24-bit indicates the

bit depth of the analog-to-digital conversion.

The larger the number, the higher the sound

quality,and the larger the le size.

WAV les recorded in STEREO/4CH/STAMINA mode

comply with BWF (Broadcast Wave Format) and

include marks and creation dates.

Types of MP3 les

Select the bit rate, which is the amount of data per

second. The higher the number, the lower the rate of

compression and the better the sound quality. MP3

les that are more compressed occupy less space on

SD cards.

VBR (Variable Bit Rate) means the bit rate is automati-

cally adjusted based on the input information.

NOTE

MS stereo format overview

This technique converts input from a directional mid mic, which

captures sound in the center, and a bidirectional side mic, which

captures sounds from the left and right, to stereo. You can change

the stereo width as you like by adjusting the side mic level.

Since this technique can capture a wide stereo image, it is

ideal for recording large open spaces with numerous sound

sources, including orchestras, live concerts and soundscapes.

This technique is also extremely eective when you want to

adjust room ambience. Since it oers a high degree of freedom,

it is used not only for studio recording but also for a wide range

of recording—even of rehearsals and live performances.

SIDE LEVEL SOURCE CH SETTING

Set the level of the bidirectional SIDE mic,

which is perpendicular to the MID mic.

Setting values: MUTE, −48.0 – +12.0dB

Default: +0.0dB

Set the input used (only in 4CH mode). Assign the MID and SIDE inputs to the left

(INPUT 1) and right (INPUT 2) channels.

You cannot use this function

Reference / Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

IfyouthinkthattheH4nProisoperatingstrangely,checkthefollowingitemsrst.

Recording/playback trouble

◆ There is no sound or output is very quiet

•

Check the connections to your monitoring system and its volume setting.

•

Conrm that the volume levels of tracks 1–4 are not too low.

◆ Recorder stops during playback

• If playback is started when a track is in recording standby, a temporary le is

created on the H4n Pro. If the remaining capacity of the SD card is low, the

temporary le may use all the remaining space, causing playback to stop. In this

case, end recording standby of the track.

◆ Sound from connected instruments cannot be heard or

is very quiet

• Check the input source settings. (→ P045)

• Conrm that the recording level settings are suitable. (→ P045)

• If INPUT 1 or 2 jacks are used, raise the output level of the connected device.

• When the monitor function (→ P070) is off, an input signal can only be moni-

tored if its track is set to recording standby or if the recorder is in recording

standby.

◆ Cannot record on a track

• Conrm that the REC button and that TRACK button are lit red.

• If a project is protected, recording is not possible. Use another project or turn

protection off. (→ P125)

• Conrm that an SD card is loaded in the slot.

• Conrm that the hold function is not activated. (→ P018)

• If “Card Protected!” appears on the display, the SD card write-protection is

enabled. Slide the write-protection switch on the SD card to disable write-

protection.

◆ Cannot bounce

• Conrm that the volume levels of tracks 1–4 are not too low.

• Conrm that the SD card has enough open space.

Other trouble

◆ Cannot use eects

• Conrm that the effects are on. Effects are off in MTR mode by default.

◆ Cannot use tuner

• Conrm that the jack to which the instrument is connected is selected as the

input source.

◆ Computer does not recognize it even though it is con-

nected to a USB port

• Conrm that the operating system is compatible. (→ P033)

• The operation mode must be set on the H4n Pro to allow the computer to rec-

ognize it. (→ P031)
