Dam I'm so jealous of ya 2. It would be so epic to hear an NT1-A into 1
of these things. Just to see how it holds up to the ultimate recorders
the 7 recorders from Sound Devices.

I’m not laughing and I’m very lucky I guess in that I’m curious and I get some
sighted assistance every now and then to give me a hand.
Firstly the Zoom F8N stands on 4 rubber feet which are placed on the bottom of
the recorder so you know where the bottom is by the feel of the rubber feet.
The top is easily identified by 4 slotted screws that hold the recorder into
the rack mount.
There is a handle on each side of the recorder so when the recorder is standing
on its rubber feet these each handle will be protruding from either side of the
recorder.
The display of the recorder therefor is on the front left with the control
panel taking up the rest of the area on the front panel.
On the left hand side you have tracks 1 through 4 as XLR/TRS inputs along with
the 2 SD Card slots and the multi function USB port.
On the right hand side you have tracks 5 through 8 XLR/TRS inputs along with
the external power supply socket mini XLR out sockets, a sub output socket and
the headphones socket.
On the back from left to right there is the Zoom Capsule connector which has a
cover over it, 2 sockets which are for Time syncing with a video camera and so
on and the 9 volts DC power socket for the supplied AC adapter.
At the bottom on the recorder at the back in the centre is the screw to you
losen to remove the battery compartment door so you will have to turn the
recorder upside down to insert batteries.

Hi Dane and list.
Regarding my Zoom F8n, I managed to secure the assistance from the BBC Radio
Scotland's, radio Operations Manager today by phone and I'm delighted that he
is willing to set up my Zoom F8n for me.
This is fantastic because I don't know anyone up here in the wilderness of
Scotland who could help me out.
So I'm meeting him a his work in 2 weeks time and although the setting up
should be simple for him, I'm still very unsure of the device I've purchased.
I'm hoping to get my local bar maid to describe the recorder and it's buttons
and also the Zoom bag that I also purchased and of course I've also got
Youtube.
But I really got to ask Dane this silly question.
I've unboxed my Zoom and it looks as though it stands on it's left side
vertically, however the rather large and clumsy Zoom F8n bag I purchased will
only take the device laying on it's back.
So how would anyone see the display on the right edge if it's in a bag?
Dane, I'm sure will be having a good old laugh at me, as I've had the device
for about 3 months now.
So please dane, be gentle with me, hahaha!
Very best wishes.
Andy.
