I ordered one too, and another listmember as well. We can compare notes when we use them for a while. B&H had another loss-leader yesterday for a Tascam rack-mounted flash recorder. But, on closer examination, the thing only records up to 48/16, although it will playback up to 48/24. I don't have any interest in a recorder that won't do 24 bits these days, and I want the option to sample at 96kHz or higher, even if I don't use it all the time. So I would call that Tascam recorder obsolete. Speaking of obsolete, am I the only one facing the challenge of "upgrading" away from Windows XP by early April 2014? Had very good luck re-loading the secondary DAW computer in the studio with Windows 7. All my hardware is W7 compatible, but re-loading software, making sure to save 15 years of documents, etc will be a real pain. XP was just an upgrade from Win2K, which was an upgrade from WinNT, so I was able to keep my document files intact, e-mail boxes, etc. This is a whole 'nother challenge. -- Tom Fine ----- Original Message ----- From: "Roderic G Stephens" <[log in to unmask]> To: <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, December 13, 2013 11:49 AM Subject: Re: [ARSCLIST] Very low price today on Zoom H4n flash recorder > As usual Tom, you're getting us some excellent information.
