The Zoom H2 recorder was rescheduled for delivery today, but something tells me that it won't arrive until tomorrow. I was able to find more reviews on it, though. The best ones I found were HERE and HERE
The anticipation of its arrival continues to tease and tantalize.
It sounds like the mics on the H2 might be so good that for a live performance I'd be better off setting it on the stage rather than lining out of the mixing board.
Also just came across THIS interesting video of tests with the H2

My Top 5 Under-Appreciated Shortcut Keys in Final Cut Pro X

I'm an editor who relies big-time on shortcut keys. They are faster, they take advantage of more of the software's features, and on top of that, they show that you're a real pro! Here are some shortcuts that I find don't get as much love as they should: 5. Override Connections  The Tilde key (~), used in conjunction with the trim tool (T) This is called the ‘Override Connections’ command, and it basically freezes any connected clip while you trim a clip in the main storyline.

One of the things that I appreciate about his style is that he can communicate the objective succinctly and clearly to me. On this particular project, when I came to him with the usual questions (How long does it have to be/Who is the audience/etc), not only did he have the answers, he also had a script, most of the assets, and a GoDaddy style guide ready to go. He made it clear that there were a few elements we'd have to create - and with the style guide in hand, that was no problem.
By giving clear objectives and trusting me to give him something he was looking for, it made my job a lot easier. It removed all of the hurdles that would have slowed down the path to getting to a first draft. There was no, 'hold off until we can see what joe in graphics says', instead I was confident that as long as the style guide was followed, any changes would likely be min…
