Provides a quick and easy guide to using the basic recording functions on the Zoom H4essential recorders. This short video covers the necessary steps for beginners to record with confidence, while also highlighting a few of the feature changes for people who have used earlier H4 models. Although it's primarily for my students in Stetson's Digital Arts program, it should also be helpful to others getting started with this budget-friendly recorder.
