Frage von noch n´Gast:Dear Leutz, if anyone is interested: for the Zoom H4, there is a new firmware, all of the criticisms s.dem portion removed, along with some interesting new features (eg auto-start audio level).
And who says that he should spend more money, you should look at SonyPCM google-D50. Seems to be quite interesting, but I give my zoom no longer ago.
Who is interested, I'm just s.Schneiden a two and a half-Unpluggedkonzertes that, inter alia, with the zoom was. For the whiners say that I am strangely so the best sound got.
Ach so: @ Markus - hab 'ich's right?

Quite wrong!
Forgotten your name.
And most importantly, the link.

Only .... then I can discover no newer version than the one I already have installed in the spring. That was the 1.30 (out of 1:20).
The new files are in PDF format, so simply an expanded manual. Also in German.

<Nur>
However, simply follow the link below and next to "Downloads" menu. Are the different versions based on the old Versionsummern build.

Antwort von ruebe:
hallo erstmal
I have the synonymous Zoom H4, but I have total synchronization problems between H4 and video recordings.
If this error when you or other synonymous already occurred?
I still have the old system on it - will eventually fail with the new fixed?
gruss

Antwort von camworks:
yes, the error is known. ich hab mir therefore a Marantz PMD660 fetched and returned the h4. Since then no more trouble.
Request from the Zoom support brought this response:
"...
Unfortunately, the internal clock of the computer and H4 is slightly different.
Also, the H4 has no capability synchronized with external audio devices.
So, it's not possible to keep the same tempo. Please be kind to understand.
Sincerely yours,
ZOOM Corporation ... " that is, it is technically impossible, by the internal software of the H4 clock via software patch so that the H4 will run synchronously (not synonymous with a new system 2.0). this is the zoom of the appropriate support, they should know what they say (especially the not exactly speak for her recorder).
see synonymous here: http://forum.slashcam.de/viewtopic.php?p=222745 # 222745

Antwort von noch n´Gast:
@ Markus: nee, the actually not. Moreover, I fear nothing, because nobody knows my address.
@ Rueb and camworks: the itch? I am currently in the process, three hours Konzertmitschnitt of three cameras - well, camcorders - with the audio material from H4 to synchronize.
Gehässigerweise I should still note that we additionally with two Rodes in XY technique and with two Soundman on an MD recorder recorded. The H4-material is actually the best.
If the starting point of time is found, is at least in FCE and Logic 8 wonderfully everything synchronously.
I could only beat one of my servers, because of repeatedly turned off his camcorder and I have video footage of this new manual must adjust.
But there is a lack s.Timecode me. Here are clips of only three to four minutes long, but I think that I occupationally had pretty good ears and shorter material synonymous with a "leakage" would be noted.
Antwort von camworks:
Rejoice then, that it went well. will look different when you look at the situation, ne hour s.stück incorporated.
Antwort von noch n´Gast:
there has been a misunderstanding, of course, ran the H4 without always stop by, until the memory card was full. And synonymous with the coarse material falls uncut sighted me no sync errors. Audio of the main camera and H4 audio tracks run synchronously aligned synonymous manual, if you look at the waveforms of the two considered.
Antwort von camworks:
surprise me somewhat, since you're apparently the only one in which there are no problems with the sync, but as I say: Rejoice drüber and good is. brings so now next nothing to discuss.
Antwort von noch n´Gast:
I see as synonymous, but I am really surprised, because I really can not complain and am obviously synonymous.

Antwort von noch n´Gast:
Addendum: while my main computer s.rendern was hab'ich a bit gegoogelt. Especially in American forums is talk of a time offset to 2 seconds per hour. One second is not much, when you're in frames per second counts, and of course, synonymous, if you have a video with one seconds to achieve a staggered Sound View / must-hear.
However, an hour which is 3600 seconds, and ways to offset the time to correct, should be within this time but always find. Here comes yet synonymous to synonymous that a completely deaf on Picture and Picture of the waveform actually managed to have a synchronization.
I am with audio recordings always very critical, what timing and latency are as synonymous and do not differentiate between amateur and professional. Here in this area, where it is mostly about the "consumer class" is, one should perhaps not be sooo fussy. Once because of the arithmetic, secondly synonymous from the point that when the associated camcorders really no way to provide a usable time code deductible mature (except at the ready recorded tape). And incidentally - what should we need it?
If I were a play or documentary nachvertone, anyway the film is the clock, with a conference-and for live recordings of concerts, it could be cut in the first go, otherwise it is sometime synonymous closeups without notice.
But once synonymous for professional business aspects such as cost / benefit to play a role, I think it's negligible. Conversely, the part of price-/Leistungsverhältnis hard to beat, and synonymous for someone with no clue of proper microphones and miking has really easy to use. Especially since there is the cost of cables and mics and mixer omitted.
A colleague has brought a beautiful comparison: Porsche have drive Porsche and Porsche can drive, there are three different things. I am not attacking, but only one thing to say: there are cheaper ways, to stand in traffic jams.
Antwort von jazzy_d:
How does it sync with the H2 from? I snap my credibility I once available. How long does it no longer.
Antwort von Marco:
If the H2 is not unlike the H4.

The D50 is SonyPCM-p.20. March 2008 deliverable (at HL audio distribution). More info on the music fair in Frankfurt (12-14 03.08, Hall 5.1 Stand B76) and at www.hlaudio.de

I have the H4 now at a dealer with 30 days right of return purchased for him, he should be asynchronously returned to the can.
Have 30 minutes Mini-DV and recorded in parallel with the H4. Wav, 48 kHz to run. In between the door again and again beaten. After 30 minutes, the Asynchronität counted FOUR frames. So absolute returns, and far below my fears.
With this solution, I am at a more expensive cam with XLR -Input/-Adapters herumgekommen, and have me in total more than 1000 EUR saved, and am much more flexible with recordings.
PS: BTW, the H4 Automatic Tonaussteuerung of changes during the recording (as in camcorders as usual) do not apply. During the recording he chooses the appropriate level, s.dem stage where the recording is running, the level remains as it is. Manual can be found in case of doubt still intervene.
