Frequently Answers and Questions

What are the two different stereo recording techniques that can be used with the Zoom Q4n?
The Zoom Q4n allows for two different stereo recording techniques: the X/Y technique, which uses two crossing directional mics to provide a three-dimensional sound with natural depth and width, and the A/B technique, which uses two spread-apart directional mics to provide a wide sense of stereo and capture the surrounding environment.
How do I use the X/Y mic technique on the Zoom Q4n?
To use the X/Y mic technique, slide the mic slider on the back of the Q4n up until it locks, rotate the left or right mic inward until it locks, and then rotate the other mic inward in the same way until it is fixed in place. The X/Y technique will become active, and the mic indicator on the LCD will change to XY.
How do I use the A/B mic technique on the Zoom Q4n?
To use the A/B mic technique, slide the mic slider on the back of the Q4n up until it locks and then rotate both mics outward until they are fixed in place. The A/B technique will become active, and the mic indicator on the LCD will change to AB.
