Zoom H4n Portable Digital Recorder Package with 8GB SD, Samson HP10 Headphones, Zoom RC4 Remote Con

After weighing all the options of the best way to record audio live, short of hooking up a small studios worth of cables and such to my laptop, I decided on the H4n package. The sound was so lifelike it was kinda scary. It was as easy to use as any recording medium could be (hit record + play) and cueing the takes was automatic. Normally, I would expect to have to import the tracks into my computer to apply some EQ and level settings. Everything was already dead on. I listened to a live jazz trio rehearsal straight into my home system which includes a set of 'Apogee Stage2' full ribbon speakers + added sub. The included mics (120 d setting) were open and flat. By flat, I mean it sounded as close to the live sound as I have ever heard. The amenities in the package included everything I needed right down to monitoring on the headphones.

I have but one negative issue to mention. The tracks (16 bit wavs)were not recognized properly in Cakewalk's Sonar (8)and had to be coverted. I chose to convert them to Flacs (non-lossy) and then back to wavs again. 16 bit was used to burn to cd's. I have not used the mp3 format as of yet. Hence the loss of 1 star.

I would definitly recomend this to anyone, especially musicians looking to hear back the real thing.

Hi just wanted to say I'm using this recorder and it is absolutely amazing the stuff you can get once you understand how it works.

Not only it's a great recorder but an external USB soundcard, and an instrument tuner, things I realized once I read the manual.

You can record from several different microphones at the same time, and generate independent tracks of the same audio with various flavors from the different microphones.

Great product and great pack

Bye

I published a separate review of the H4N at it's product page. For the price, this combo can't be beat. I basically paid what the unit would have cost alone and got a few extras. The remote is good, has a decent lenght cord and works well to elimnate handling noise. The headphones sound decent in a quiet environment. They aren't the best I've used but the aren't the worst either. Tripod, cables and memory cards are good to stuff in a bag to have on hand. The memory card seems to be performing acceptably in the unit so no complaints. I would buy the combo again.

The Zoom H4n is a great portable recorder. It really picks up all the nuances of the recording, is easy to use, and provides a superior experience for music recording. The bundle upgrades the memory card from 1 to 8GB, provides a remote controller so I can easily use the system from behind my drums, and has a adaptor for use on a standard mic stand. Nice features for self recording. This is a great system and package.

This recorder has features way beyond anything I need. I bought it to record my piano practice and to occasionally make a CD for friends and family. It is superb for this use, and relatively easy to use by someone, like myself, who has no previous experience with digital recorders. I have shown it to 2 friends who do much more sophisticated recording and both of them say they have to get one.
