Zoom H5/UG/16 Sound Marker

• Outputting tone signals when starting and stopping recording (sound marker function)

  • System version 2.0 added sound markers: the H5 can send a tone out of its output jacks when recording starts and stops.
  • When recording sound for video, feed the tones into the camera's own audio. The markers make the H5 recording easier to line up with the video.

    • MODE — when to sound a marker: OFF, REC START, or REC START AND END.
    • SOUND — the type of tone: SINE WAVE, SLATE, or Hi-Q.
    • LEVEL — the marker's volume.
    • Use the scroll button to choose a value, and press it to set it. MENU cancels.
