Representing a new generation of portable recording, the H2n allows you to record pristine audio anywhere you go. It features Zoom's best microphones yet and is the only portable recorder with five mic capsules on board, offering four unique recording modes: mid-side (MS) stereo, 90° X/Y stereo, and two-channel or four-channel surround sound.

The H2n is the first handheld recorder to offer mid-side stereo recording, a technique used for many years in film and broadcast where ambient surrounding noise is crucial. The H2n comes with a 2-GB SD card to get you started and can accommodate up to a 32-GB SDHC card for over 50 hours of recording time using the 16-bit/44.1 kHz WAV format.
