New zoom recorder 20148/24/2023 If I’d want a good field recorder for an external mic I’d look further for a device with a little less noisefloor than the H4 since in my experience it’s relatively high. I have no regrets on buying the H2 and I would buy it again if it broke. If you have a nice mic you can just hook it up anywhere. What I love about the H4 is that it’s got XLR inputs. You can just throw it in your bag and not worry about it too much. I use it a lot for random field- and foley recordings. What I love about the H2 is that it’s compact and sturdy. I own a H2 and have done many recordings with the H4. I’ll need some accessories for it, too, which adds another 30-50 bucks. What are some situations where you feel it would be really helpful to have 4 or 6 channels? Do any of you have first-hand experience with these devices? And did you regret what you bought? Since the H-4N is a bit older, I think the choice is mostly between the cheap and the expensive model. Then again, I’m just a hobbyist, and very much an amateur, so I have no professional needs. One thing on my mind is that I might want to use it to record acoustic instruments (my own), and at least for the ukulele it may be a good idea to capture it using multiple mics. Based on this, I don’t think I need the two more expensive models, but then again, when I bought my audio interface I also didn’t think I might eventually want MIDI I/O (and got the Scarlett 2i2 instead of the 2i4). when I have an idea for a tune, but I’m not at the computer). What I mostly want to do is record all sorts of sounds (“found sounds”) and perhaps use the device as a memo pad (e.g. The second and third have multi-track recording. There are three models that I’m looking at: So I wanted to get some second opinions from you guys! I usually either over-spend and then regret it because I don’t need what I bought, or I buy something cheap and then find it lacking and regret it also. I’m going to buy one of the Zoom sound recorders, but I’m undecided which model I should go for.
