Yes, thanks for pointing them out but the operations manual simply describes, rather poorly, the basic functions of the knobs and buttons and doesn't even come close to being an operational tutorial.
I think this description applies to all Zoom products.

You know.......I'm just realizing that you're saying you're BRAND NEW to recording this way so. Pretty much everyone has that "geez does this have to be so complicated" moment when launching a digital recording habit. If the DVD tutorial is for your product..........most of those are pretty good. I bought one for one of my pieces of equipment and it was step by step and very clear. I highly suggest that you buy it. Between that and the manual.........the terminology and the functions will make sense fairly quickly.
