Samson Zoom H4n Handheld Audio Recorder

Tweet

The H4n is the next generation portable audio recorder from Zoom. It is capable of recording high-resolution audio at 24bit/96kHz on SD/SDHC media of up to 32GB and works with USB 2.0. The H4n impresses with its rugged exterior featuring rubberized body for shock absorption and an all-metal microphone. H4n promises durability in the face of some serious rough handling during public concerts. It also has a built-in mounting joint for tripod and microphone stand use.

The H4n features a much better looking interface than the H4 and has a large LCD screen. Built-in X/Y stereo condenser mics enable variable recording patterns at 90 degrees and 120 degrees. In fact the H4n allows you to use internal and external mics at the same time for a 4-channel recording. Other features include Broadcast Wave Format (BWF) compatible time stamp, track marker functions, auto-record plus pre-record features.

The H4n offers some seriously cool features for both amateur and professional musicians. These include multi-track recording with Hi-Z Inputs for recording guitar and bass and more than 50 guitar and bass amp modeling settings. The H4n will run for 10 hours straight on one set of AA batteries.
