The ZOOM H2n portable recorder brings the very best in stereo recording to a convenient, user-friendly package that fits in your pocket. It's the new standard in portable recording, and is Zoom’s most innovative handheld recorder to date.

The H2n is ultra portable, records pristine audio, and can be used for film and broadcast, journalism, pod casting, musical performance, songwriting and rehearsals. Anywhere you need to record.

The H2n features Zoom's best microphones and is the only portable recorder with five mic capsules onboard. This design enables the H2n to offer four unique recording modes: Mid-Side (MS) stereo, 90° X/Y stereo, 2-channel and 4-channel surround sound.

It's very easy to use, and with its newly designed user interface, critical controls are right at your fingertips and make studio-quality recording a breeze. Other useful features include Auto-Gain, tuner, metronome, compressor/limiter, time stamping and more.

Mid-Side Stereo Recording
The H2n is the first handheld recorder to offer Mid-Side stereo recording, a technique used for many years in film and broadcast, where ambiance 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.

X/Y Recording
The H2n’s 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 equidistant 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 H2n’s 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, you’ll get perfectly balanced, surround sound recordings.

No More Lost Data
The H2n has a unique data recovery function, so never again will you have to worry about losing recorded data to unexpected errors. Whether you experience battery loss or an accidental power-down, this feature will automatically restore your data the next time the H2n is powered on. Other important features include: over 20 hours of continuous operation on just two standard AA alkaline batteries, crystal-clear monitoring with the 1.8-inch backlit LCD display (128 x 64 resolution), mic main wheel allows you to dial-in the perfect amount of gain, and a built-in reference speaker.

The H2n uses SD/SDHC cards and can accommodate up to a 32GB SDHC card for over 50 hours of recording time using the 16-bit/44.1kHz WAV format. With 128kbps MP3 format, you get an incredible 555 hours of stereo recording. The H2n comes with a 2GB SD card to get you started. The USB 2.0 interface allows you 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.

Steinberg’s WaveLab LE 7 can be used for audio editing and mastering so you can refine your recordings into finished works. The optional wired remote can be used to start, stop and pause recordings, as well as to add marks. It’s also useful in preventing handling noise. The APH-2n optional accessory package includes a wired remote control with an extension cable, windscreen, AC adapter (USB type), USB cable, adjustable tripod stand, padded-shell case and mic clip adapter.
