Minor annoyances
A couple of minor annoyances with my current gaggle of gadgets:
- The Samsung monitor is fscking gorgeous, but with its 2ms response time and 3000:1 contrast the jitter coming through the VGA input is annoying as heck. I'll have to get either a graphics card or a motherboard with a DVI output. (The jitter could be coming from the KVM switch, but that would open yet another can of worms. I'll have to deal with it pretty soon in any case.)
- The Zoom H2 won't record four channels in any mode but 44.1KHz, 16-bit WAV. So much for recording concerts with audience reaction, or an evening's worth of surround-sound at a circle. Minor; it'll do two channel surround-sound, and that's good enough for circles. I can get audience reaction by recording from the first or second row.
