Stereo Mode
This section describes the stereo mode functions and operation steps.
What is stereo mode?
In stereo mode, two signals either from the built-
in stereo mic or from the [INPUT 1]/[INPUT 2]
jacks are used as recording sources to create a
stereo file. You can select either WAV or MP3 as
format for the recorded file, and you can change
the sampling rate and bit rate as required.
NOTE
In stereo mode, only stereo recording and
playback are possible. Multi-track recording is
not supported.
In stereo mode, recording will always start out
with a new file, at the beginning of the file. It is
not possible to use and overwrite an existing
file.
The stereo mode top screen is shown below.
Switching to stereo mode
The two main operation modes of the H4 are
stereo mode and 4-track mode. When power to
the H4 is turned on, it will be in the mode that
was selected the last time the unit was used.
The currently selected mode is shown by the
[MODE] indicator on the top panel. When the
indicator is lit, the unit is in stereo mode. When
the indicator is out, the unit is in 4-track mode.
