Zoom H4n Handheld Recorder Now at Best Buy

Zoom announced on Monday that its H4n handheld digital audio recorder is now available at Best Buy stores.

Not just for musicians, many filmmakers and video professionals use the H4n to record high-quality audio while filming HD video with their DSLR cameras – and with features like 4-channel high resolution audio recording and a digitally-controlled, microphone preamp – you can understand why. It also includes a built-in reference speaker so you can check recordings as you work.

Zoom's most sophisticated handheld recorder to date, the H4n also features built-in X/Y stereo condenser mics, allowing you to record at either 90° or 120°, a 1.9-inch LCD screen, an onboard reference speaker and two XLR inputs.

H4n has a rubberized, shock resistant body and a built-in mounting joint for tripod and microphone stand use. The device comes with a 1 GB SD card, wind screen, mic clip adapter, AC adapter, USB cable, protective case and Cubase LE recording software. An optional remote control is also available. It is available now at all Best Buy stores and online at www.bestbuy.com for $299.
