How the Zoom H4N Will Take Your Production to the Next Level!
Фильм және анимация
Every filmmaker should use an audio recorder because it allows them to capture high-quality audio that is essential for a professional-sounding film. Good audio can be the difference between a mediocre film and a great one. An audio recorder allows you to capture dialogue, sound effects, and ambiance separately, giving you more control over the audio in post-production. Additionally, an audio recorder allows you to capture audio in a separate track, which means that you can edit and mix the audio separately from the video, giving you more flexibility and control over the final sound. Having a separate audio recording also means that if the audio recorded on the camera is not of good quality, you have a separate audio track to work with. Overall, using an audio recorder is a necessary step in achieving professional-sounding audio in your film.
Today I share with you a few reasons why you need an audio recorder in your camera bag. Wether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, there are many reasons to have an audio recorder on hand. I mainly focus around the Zoom H4N Pro, but also touch a little on the Tascam DR-40. Pairing those up with various Rode and Sennheiser microphones. All the equipment I've used in this video is liked below:

Thanks for this. I put my H4n away for the last 2 years. On taking it out I now find it covered with a horrible sticky layer. The rubberized plastic has somehow sweated out a glue-like substance. A glance a KZread tells me I'm not the 1st!

Thanks so much. Very helpful and informative.
this video needs more views, and your channel needs more subs!
and the Rode wireless Go records the audio for even another back up. Good video
So many awesome recorders out there... the real stars in this though is the Rode and Sennheiser microphone... I use a much smaller recorder with a wired Lav mic and it's clean as can be and it still allows me to have the multiple tracks and sync in post. Something I picked up for weddings.

@@rynfilms Some Cheap Chinese things from Amazon... cost about $20 a piece .... put some Rode Lav mics and works well, I was really just looking for something to get quick and cheap as "back up" audio but it turned out to be the right fit. I didn't think I would do enough weddings to upgrade and just never really saw the need to.
Surprised that you're doing an H4 vid now when Zoom is up to the H8. I have an H5 and love it! Good info.

At some point I have to stop upgrading for a while! 🤣 I started this video over a year ago. It's just one of those I had put so much work into I just wanted to get it done. Still a great recorder though!

@@rynfilms yeah! I was really surprised at just how well my H5 worked as a VoiceOver mic recently in my echo-prone office while doing a tutorial video for my daughter's video footage. They are solid recorders! Always enjoy your content, Ryan!

depends on the person, what they want, need, and their budget... I got sold a H4N Pro this year when I decided I wanted to get into filming. keep in mind that's 2 years after your comment. it's 2023 now.
If anyone's in need of instant anxiety, you can find some right here: 3:06 (Where did you film that, by the way? I don't recognize that area.) Great video! Recently got a basic ol' H1n and it has already transformed my audio significantly. Love that little guy.

Awesome! I haven't used the H1n yet. That was Fat Mans Pass on South Mountain. 🌵 It's a neat area, takes a little work to get to though.
Nice

Could I ask what lac mic you use? I have the h4n and the rode wireless go and the audio seems muffed with the rode lav+

I don't know the exact one, but it's the one that comes with the Rodelink kit.
Dope and funny video ryan just wish youd keep it shorter. Best of luck

Yeah, sometimes it's hard to keep it short. Just watch me at 2x speed! 😆
Even the h1n sounds better than the recording on r5 In both cases using the RODE film maker. The only annoying thing is syncing the audio

You are using the snap, or clap, method to have a loud sound to synch by?

I find that the auto sync in Premiere does a really good job most of the time. It could be harder in other programs.
I love Tascam...

I just wish it had a more intuitive interface, and didn't feel like a cheap plastic toy. 🤷♂️
