What kind of mics are in the Zoom H4n?
The Ultimate Handheld Recording Studio With onboard X/Y microphones, two combo input jacks, overdubbing, effects, and more, the H4n Pro is packed with features that allows musicians to create songs from start to finish.
Are Zoom microphones good?
It offers excellent fidelity thanks to the high-quality AD converter, while doing a great job at blocking out background noise. Some of the other microphones on this list have higher sensitivity (for better audio depth), so if you work near a window, something like the AT2005USB is better suited for you.

Is the Zoom H4n pro the best field recording device?
The Zoom H4n Pro is an excellent recording device for creative professionals who don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on the premium Zoom H6. It isn’t as fancy or as versatile, but it still captures high-fidelity field recordings.
How far apart should the mics be on the Zoom H4n?
I prefer the ORTF (Office de Radiodiffusion Télévision Française) placement, which is to angle the mics at 110º and have them spaced as far apart as your ears: 17 cm (6″). This natural spacing adds air and dimension to the one-dimensional soundstage of X-Y recordings, but the Zoom H4n can’t do this without external microphones.
What are the technical specifications of the Zoom H4n?
Zoom H4n microphone frequency response (rated). SD cards (16MB ~ 2GB), SDHC cards (4GB ~ 32 GB). USB connection. 24-bit 128x oversampliing DAC.
What is the difference between the LS-10 and the Zoom H4n?
We described the LS-10 as the audio equivalent of a bridge camera, offering a higher level of sound capture than the average Dictaphone or voice recorder, but retaining a compact shape and some ‘point and shoot’ ease of use. With the Zoom H4N we’re treading more into digital SLR territory.
