Zoom H4n

 

Here is my take on a great piece of recording gear the Zoom H4n Digital recorder. Set up time on camera tripod is a couple of minutes and you are ready to record 4 channels of crystal clear audio in all sorts of out of the way places. I have the previous model the Zoom H4 and it is has given me a couple of years of reliable service recording my music in remote locations and I absolutely love it. The built in mics work quite well but I also take a couple of favourite EV mics along as well for recording acoustic guitar. Have used the phantom power with Shure beta 87's as well.

Zoom H4n features that make sense.

Zoom H4n Review - What I like about it.

First of all it just works. In the past I've recorded to cassette, dat & minidisc & I was always frustrated with either the lack of quality or the lack of reliability. I've used the zoom H4 quite a lot mainly outdoors & managed some great results. If I am travelling light I use the inbuilt mics which work quite well once you have figured out the optimum position for your instrument or the sound you want to capture. I have recorded acoustic guitar & vocals, ocean waves, gentle creek & bird sounds as well as frogs & insects. I love the fact that you can plug in favourite mics including condensors needing phantom power. The fact that it doubles as a computer audio interface with effects is an absolute bonus. My main focus with the zoom H4n is sound quality and ease of use. Click a few buttons and you are ready to record. It is a huge step up from the H4 which I have used for a couple of years. It feels more solid like a pro device. It is much easier to use, most of the functions that were buried four levels down in the menu system have been brought to the surface where you can find them. Using the stamina mode you can pretty much get a full day of stereo recording on one set of batteries. I bought the remote as well to avoid stretching out to press record with a guitar strapped on and a mic stand to reach over. It is a great recorder, it sounds good, it is extremely well thought out & designed,As a very satisfied owner I to tally recommend it. I am in the process of recording some more stuff for youtube over the next few weeks on the H4n so hopefully I will post some vids soon.

Zoom H4 live location recording

Lenore & I hard at work using our zoom H4 on Heron Island about 40 kilometers off the east coast of Australia. It was just one of those perfect days with very little wind & the ocean almost as smooth as a pond.
