Can't wait for an answer to this post. I'm in the same boat.
I can plug my head phones into a amp! Yeh! lol
Anyone have a Q4 I had a Q3 but it cannot do all I want with it so if anyone can help me with the following scenario I would appreciate it.
Here is what I want to do.
1) Mic my drum kit
2) Send all drum mics to a mixer
3) play along with a CD player and also run the CD player into the mixer
4) Have my headphones plugged into the mixer so I can hear the drum mics and the CD.
**NOTE THESE 1ST 4 STEPS ARE ALREADY BEING DONE**
5) Run a cable from the mixer output into the Q4
6) Have the Q4 record video and audio only from the mixer (cd and drum mics). I do not want it to record the sound in the room.
7) post the video to youtube. Be nice if it was with the same ease as the Q3 was.
if you know of another camera/recorder that can do this I am all ears as well. I read up on the Q4 but cannot figure out through all the techno mumbo jumbo if it will do exactly this. My wife tried to surprise me and bought me the H4N, which I am pretty sure will do all this except record video and I really want the video as well.
Thanks

I sent an email to Zoom customer support and got the following,
Rob!
Its exactly the same as Q3 in this sense. Plug into the stereo mic/line in on Q4 from your mixer and your ready to go. Internal mics will disable, and audio/vid will stay in sync.

Then I sent the following back to him,
So you mean the external mic will disable (not record the room) and just record the line in from the mixer?
and he immediately answered,
Exactly,
Q4 only records in Stereo, either the internal mics, or the line input.
So I am going to purchase one as soon as I get my refund from the H4N
Hope this helps
