A great digital recorder: The Zoom H2
I have been looking for an inexpensive digital-recorder that meets the following requirements for use with my students:
Portable
Expandable storage (media card)
Records in wav and mp3 format
Easy to Use
There were several on the list, but the Zoom H2 really can’t be beat.
For $199 (less with my educator’s discount at my local music merchant) the H2 has all of the above and 4 built in mics allowing you to record in a number of unique situations using a front 90 degree pattern, rear 120 degree pattern or both:
And a built in bonus is the ability to use the H2 as a USB mic and an audio interface with your favorite digital audio software (in my case, Garageband).
It’s sounds great and is really easy to use out of the box.
