Here's a quick video on enabling the AUX out capability of each channel on the {{T1}}.

* With the Zoom H4 connected and used as a recorder in this configuration you can expect to get exactly what you would hear from the T1 AUX OUT connector. Provided you have enabled the AUX output on each T1 channel, you’ll hear what is plugged into the input of each channel, whether it’s a microphone, iPod, guitar, etc.

* Setting the "recording mix" of all you T1 channels requires you to listen to the AUX output by some method, or to leave each channels Level mix at its default setting of 50%. The easy approach is to leave everything at 50%. This insures nothing ends up too hot in the mix. (You can taylor your recording mix by adjusting the Level percentage of each channel, but I haven't taken the time to experiment with this option.) NOTE: Change this Level setting does not change any output levels from your T1 which are routed to your Main OUT of the T1.

* The “mix” of all your T1 channels will be present at the T1 AUX OUT connector. Therefore, you need to ensure your channel “mix” on the T1 is the way you want to record all the channels coming from the T1. To establish your T1 AUX OUT “mix”, [[follow this link to setting the AUX OUT levels.]] If you have a “Hot” channel, but don’t really realize it when listening to the L1’s output, you’ll have a “Hot” channel on your recording. A way to determine this is to plug in a set of headphones to the AUX OUT connector and listen during sound check. Be careful of the headphone volume. Don’t blow your ears out!

I have only accomplished two recordings of our band using this method of recording. The things I have noticed so far, are:
