The Zoom H2n Recorder is a compact and highly portable field recorder featuring five built-in microphones with high-resolution 24-bit/96kHz audio. The Zoom H2N is the new standard in field recording with its five built-in microphones configured to pick up every nuance of your source material while maintaining the natural stereo field. The result is pristine audio that captures the essence of the sound youre recording. Ideal for everything from live interviews and field recording to capturing live performances and more. Monitor your levels and access settings via the large 1.8 inch backlit LCD display. You can also monitor your sound using the built-in speaker. Additionally the recorder features built-in effects and a 2-in/2-out USB audio interface allowing you to easily record and transfer files to and from your computer.
The first portable mid-side recorder The H2n is the first handheld recorder to offer Mid-Side stereo recording a technique used for many years in film and broadcast where ambience and surrounding noise are crucial. Mid-Side recording combines a uni-directional Mid mic that captures sound directly in front of you and a bi-directional Side mic that captures sound from your left and right. By increasing or decreasing the level of the Side mic you can control the width of the stereo field which gives you incredible flexibility over your recordings. If you record in RAW mode you can even adjust the stereo width after recording. Accurate stereo imaging The H2ns onboard 90° X/Y stereo condenser mics are arranged with the right and left mics on the same axis. This design ensures that the mics are always equal distance from the sound source for perfect localization and no phase shifting. The result is brilliant stereo recording with natural depth and accurate imaging. Using the H2ns Mid-Side and X/Y mics together you can create stunning 360° surround sound recordings. Choose between 2-channel mode which combines the Mid-Side and X/Y mics and 4-channel mode which records two separate stereo files allowing you even more post-production capability. No matter which mode you use youll get perfectly balanced surround sound recordings. New and improved crisp LED screen The 1.8-inch backlit LCD display (128 x 64 resolution) provides crystal-clear monitoring and makes it simple to navigate all of the units functions with a built-in reference speaker letting you know your recordings have been captured. With its 1/8-inch stereo output you can also playback your recordings on your home audio system or listen to your masterpiece using your favourite pair of headphones. Transfer and edit at high speeds Use the H2ns High-Speed USB 2.0 interface to transfer files to your Mac or PC. Once your recordings are on your computer you can easily store edit playback and share your favorite creations. You can even use the H2n as a USB microphone letting you record directly to your computer.
