Cool recorder

Great tool. Using it as a microphone for my computer at the moment with the work from home situation. Great sound and great device.

Exactly what I have expected

Good product was worth the money, not worth buying as a portable microphone is you care for quality but works well as a relatively good and easy to use plug in for other microphones. Was well worth it.

Great recorder. I own 8 Zoom recorders and I use almost nothing else for filmmaking and field recordings. Durable and well built. I have no complaints at all about the actual recorder. My go-to recorders for many years. My only real complaint is that this one was missing all of the accessories and manuals. No USB cable, no windscreen, no cases, and no manuals. Recorder was in a cheap black bag and shoved inside a plastic bag. I have no doubt I was shipped a returned item but the returns process and dealing with Amazon customer service was a nightmare, so I just kept it. Hopefully I can get the missing accessories directly from Zoom but I'm not holding my breath. I don't really need them (I have better windscreens and no shortage of USB cables) but it's the principal of the matter. Zoom is in no way at fault and it's strictly an Amazon issue.

Buen producto y llegó un día antes de la entrega estimada. tenía un precio un poco menor que en tienda.

Excellent recorder, easy to set up. The audio quality is high throughout the frequency range, I use it to record my band, and also to monitor our sound from offstage. The mounts on the XYH-5 mic attachment are a little fragile, they're just plastic. More on that later. I love how it has a knob to control the overall gain, and then the body has two knobs for the other inputs. The extra two inputs are pretty handy, because you get the stereo room sound from the XY attachment, and then you can mic your voice and one other thing separately to make it possible to enhance your mix. It's easy to use, but you have to set the time pretty often. I wish it had a bigger capacitor to maintain the clock when you're charging batteries. It maintains it for a little while, like if you change batteries instead of charging. The feel of it is dense and solid, and I like the rounded edges and satin finish. The buttons are flush to the body and have a nice, short throw, but clicky so you know you've actuated it. My only caveat is that the microphone mounting is a little fragile. I had it on a stand that got tipped over, and one of the mic mounts broke. I sent a pic of it to Zoom and they replaced it. But that mount is so fragile, I'd like to be able to put a metal screen around it. Or just have it made of metal. The recorder comes with a foam windscreen, I put that on every time I record just to be safe.
