32-bit, sure, but a downgrade in every sense

Coming from the H4n Pro, I had high hopes for this one, and my hopes were dashed on the rocks - sure, it's 32-bit, but even basic things that my H4n handled with no problems like plugging a guitar in, is beyond the realm of this supposed upgrade. I will be looking for a different and most likely previous gen device instead, this was all hype and a lot of disappointment.
