Except for those two things I like this. The sound quality is great. Very simple to upload recordings to a computer.
Perhaps I am expecting too much here. But if I want to record something, I want it to record when I press the record button. But the first press of the record button is to set audio levels and the second press is to record. If you just want to use this as a simple recorder you may find yourself frustrated when it doesn't act like one. You press record and then notice ... Read More

I'm a professional trainer (sales, presentations, negotiations and influence) and we use Zoom H2 Handy Portable Stereo Recorder to create podcasts, interviews and other on-line audio files. I absolutely love this device. It's easy to use and produces noise-free recordings with very good digital quality. You can save files (or record directly to your computer) in mp3 or wav format. Love it!

The H2 is indeed a tiny handy device for all it does...and with 4 mics too. I appreciate the at on-board menu is simple, the instruction manual easy to understand and follow.

It seems that after going through the menu, for my kind of use, there is about one set of menu settings I will normally use, so the Key Hold function is invaluable for an all-thumbs kind of guy like me. There are a few ... Read More

As usual Amazon shipped it to me with blazing speed. The product is clear and easy to use, small screen but useful. The product is functionally built, not professional sturdy, but well made and well layed out. The built in microphones provide fantastick recording results. The playback is exquisitely clear and accurate. The line-in works as well and is very easy to set levels with. A fantastick home use product of great value and excellent performance. Would not be suitable for hard usage but perfectly acceptable ... Read More
