Flip the jumper, chroot or nuke from orbit. Impressed by three hours though.

Comment on Zoom H4n: USB audio interface noise solved by rlaskey

You're very welcome, Joe; and thank you for the comment :) It certainly was a maddening problem before I found the solution, and I'm glad that me posting this has helped others. I hope that MLogi, who posted above, also has a working system on battery power. Needing batteries is sort of a drag, though I've heard good things about the Sanyo Eneloop series. There's now a USB re-charging kit for cheap on Amazon, and 4 packs if you have use for AA's in other devices.

Hello, and thank you for the comment! It may be that the AC power doesn’t work, either. I would recommend you try powering up the H4n with battery power, without the AC adapter. I have some rechargeable AA’s which work reasonably well. The problem may be more related to the power from the AC strip, than about the power from the computer. Let us know if that fixes it.

Hi there…i’ve recentely purchesd the mic and i’m really happy with but i’m also suffering from the problem that you mentioned and you seem to be the only one who’ve been talking about it across the web…anyway, your advice didn’t work for me for some reason…i plug it first to the a\c adapter and just as i plug the usb cable the noises starts to appear…this only happens when i plug it to an external monitor, headphones and little speakrs working well without any noise…i have no idea how to solve this problem and the thing is that if this is the quality of the output sound it equals to my internal soundcard and i have no use in the h4n, so could it be that the h4n is not so good as an audio interface and i’m just being dumb for trying to plug into an extrnal monitors??

Nice! It’s very illusion-istic (I think I just made up a word) . . disorienting . .

Hey man, that’s great! Thank you very much for the comment, and for the numbers. The N8 looks like it’ll be a wonderful device, and I’m excited to hear more about it as it comes closer to release.

I wholehartedly agree with your assesment. Let me just add to your argument. A Nokia N8 has been benchmarked by FinestPhones, and found to be blistering fast compared to the N97, actually +180% faster (that is almost three times as fast), ok comparing to the N97 might not be such a big feat in itself. BUT what is VERY interesting is that the Symbian^3 powered N8 is faster than the Samsung OmniaHD, which runs Symbian^1 and has an ARM CortexA8 CPU(!). Yes, that’s right, the ARM11 based N8 beats a Cortex device. Reason? Simple, Symbian^3 uses the graphics accelerator chip intensely for a lot of operations, graphics and UI being the obvious areas of course.

Also, a lot of the un-official leaked footage of the N8 running, shows that that device is indeed very speedy, both in terms of browsing, gallery loading and navigating and general multitasking. The N8, esspecially considering it’s pricepoint, is a very big deal!
