Zoom has just announced a firmware update to its H4n Handy Recorder that enables independent level controls for its XLR inputs. With the new firmware, you can capture your boom and lav mics at different levels and then the stereo WAV file can be split into two mono files in post production.
You can download the firmware version 1.70 update from Zoom’s website.

The enTourage eDGe™ is the world’s first dualbook, combining the functions of an e-reader, netbook, notepad, and audio/video recorder and player in one.
Get books wirelessly, move files onto your enTourage eDGe™ using an SD card or a USB flash drive. Use the mini-USB port to move files back and forth from a Windows, MAC, or Linux-based PC.
enTourage eDGe™ e-reader portion has a spacious 9.7 inch screen and also uses e-Ink® technology allowing the user to take notes on the book being read. Open a journal page and enter drawings with the stylus or text — either by hand or using the virtual keyboard. Save your notes and journals to the enTourage eDGe™, to a server, or email them other people. The enTourage eDGe™ can read both ePub files and PDFs.
The enTourage eDGe™ 10.1 inch color touchscreen is a whole netbook, ready to play movies or MP3s, organize your books, notes, and pictures, or let you instant message your friends. Use the netbook in portrait or landscape mode. View images from the e-book you’re reading on the color display. Open a virtual keyboard and type instant messages or emails. The netbook includes an audio recorder to capture lectures for later playback or sharing. The enTourage eDGe™ also has a video camera to record still images or movies as MP4s or 3GP files. Plug in headphones or a microphone or use the built in speaker and recorder.
The netbook functionality comes with web browsing using the built in WiFi®, audio/video record and playback, an email function and contacts list, a calculator, an alarm clock, and a library function to manage your books and files. The enTourage eDGe™ uses the Google® Android® operating system, so you can add other applications.
At about 3 pounds and with a 16 hour lithium ion battery the enTourage eDGe™ should be able to keep up with any person all day long. Carry thousands of books with the built-in 3 GB of usable memory. Use an SD card or a USB flash drive to add to the storage, or move files to and from an MP3 player, phone, PC, or camera.
The enTourage eDGe™ comes in at $490.00 which is not completely outrageous considering the functionality. If black is not the color of choice expect to hand over an extra $40.00. Preorder now at www.entourageedge.com.
