nothing is shown, click on the track to select it.
Connect the guitar or other instrument to the [INPUT]
jack of the H4n and select the desired patch.
The sound selected here will be recorded on the computer via the
[USB] port. For information on how to select the input signal and
effect patch for the H4n, see page 034 (Selecting the input source) and

of the H4n to achieve a suitable recording level for
Cubase LE 4.
The recording level for Cubase LE 4 can be checked with the level
meter for the channel that is assigned to the recording standby track.
Set the level as high as possible without causing the meter to reach the
end of the scale.
To adjust the level, do not use the fader of Cubase LE 4. Instead
change the recording level and gain settings at the H4n.
NOTE
• While the monitoring button is enabled, the direct signal input to the
H4n and the signal routed to the computer and then returned to the
H4n will be output simultaneously from the H4n, causing a flanger-
like effect in the sound. To accurately monitor the sound also while
adjusting the recording level, temporarily set the output device port
for the VST connection (step 6) to "Not Connected".
• The level meter as in the above illustration shows the signal level
after processing in the H4n. When you pluck a guitar string the
meter may register with a slight delay, but this is not a defect.
When the recording level has been adjusted, click the
monitoring button to disable it.
The input level is no longer shown on the meter, and the signal
returned to the H4n via the computer is muted.
In this condition, only the signal before sending to the computer can
be monitored via the [PHONES/LINE] jack of the H4n.
Verify that the transport panel is being shown.
If the transport panel is not shown, access the "Transport" menu and
