Zoom H4 - short review summary - recorded samples...

For the last 6 months Soul Amp has used the Zoom H4 for recording nearly everything we have played (including a bar gig). Using a tri-pod we have used it to record a bunch of stuff nearly all of it at 24 bit. I've even used the Zoom H4 to record nature sounds including using the Zoom H4 to record thunderclaps and birds and cars driving by. And we used the Zoom H4 to record live music at a bonfire with crickets in the background and a voodoo drum cirle. We have found it to work extremely well. My only big complaint it that the screen could have bigger text. Other than that, the Zoom H4 has been amazing and sounds great. I highly recommend you get one if you are into that sort of thing. I haven't used the 4-track feature much, but I just used the tuner to tune E's niece's guitar. Very cool. The following tunes were recorded using the Zoom H4:
