Product Description

The Zoom H4n Handy Recorder picks up where the H4 left off and adds additional features to an already popular audio recorder. Ideal for recording interviews, lectures, rehearsals, meetings, and more, this palm-sized unit packs the ability to record up to 4 channels of audio at greater than CD quality. The H4n features onboard true X/Y stereo microphones to pick up clear, natural sound without phase shifting. The mics can be rotated to select a 90° or 120° recording pattern for terrific versatility. The digitally-controlled preamp, combined with the high-quality microphones, allows you to capture Linear PCM audio at rates up to 24-bit/96kHz. The recorder captures audio to SD or SDHC cards with capacities up to 32GB. A USB 2.0 port allows you to quickly transfer files to a Mac or PC, or use the H4n as a live audio interface. For connecting your own microphones or instruments, the H4n features XLR/TRS combo input jacks with phantom capability. A 3.5mm line output is provided, and a reference speaker is built-in for quickly reviewing your recordings. The unit operates on a pair of standard AA batteries, and features a Stamina mode to provide up to 11 hours of continuous recording at 16-bit/44.1kHz. Other useful features of the H4n include variable playback speed, automatic and pre-record functions, a low-cut filter and limiter for improving the sound quality of recordings, time stamping, a metronome and tuner, and more. The backlit LCD screen and intuitive controls are easy to use, even for the recording novice. A collection of accessories are included so you can start recording right out of the box.

i've not had time to really delve into all the features, or even use it for the purpose for which i bought it (audio for film), however what i have played with sounds fantastic. for someone like me,(pro) i don't find it too complicated to get around and it's fairly intuitive. with that said, if you're new to audio of don't need bells and whistles, i'd look into a 'lesser version'. if you know what you're doing and want an exceptionally good sounding and flexible recorder, this is your unit. i have found it to be very handy just to have lying around to grab for a quick "idea" catcher for songwriting.
it is (or at least seems to be ) a sturdy unit, solid feeling, not flimsy. but buy a better carrying case and an extra sd card for more storage.
my only beef if not with the recorder itself, but with the cubase le software that was bundled with it. NOT intuitive, NOT easy to set up, NOT as easy to use as they would have you believe, but the customer service from steinberg was pretty prompt and friendly (but still was unable to fix my problem).

Absolutily LOVE this thing! September 17, 2010

AMAZING! Cant say enough. Buy one and be amazed with the quality and performance of this little thing. This is a great package with $50 or more in extras for the same price. I use this unit with my Canon 5D mark II to add awesome soundtracks to my movies/videos. FYI: For the open rear channels on this unit do a search for shotgun microphone "HTDZ HT-81" or "14.37 inch Professional Shotgun Microphone" and buy 2. You will find them out there for $32 shipped a peace! They sound comparable if not better than my Rode Videomic! So save some money and search them out.

I offered to record video at a conference as a favor to a friend, and was looking into how to bring audio into my camera. I saw some camera-specific boxes which would take XLR from the board and bring it into the camera, but got the H4n instead, since it can work standalone and as a camera input adapter.

The best recommendation for me was that the pro audio guys at the venue were using H4n as part of their own gear to make audio-only recordings -- a business run by someone who has been doing audio recordings at shows and concerts for decades. I felt like I had made the right choice -- and conveniently he showed me the optimal settings to use as well. This is a very versatile tool for all audio recording needs -- a high quality interview recorder, a concert recorder, and an audio solution for shooting video on the Canon 7D or a variety of camcorders.

It's not cheap, but a great value.

H4N No Line Input WHY ????
Excellent audio quality, but no line level input is my only gripe. Built a simple 4 resistor attenuator to bring a line level to a level that was low enough for the mic input. Read more
