It's very easy to use when i first thought about it i was thinking it's complicated to use but it took me just few hours and few videos to handle it like a pro

H4essential est tout petit. Qualité 32bits extra. Réglages ultra simples. Autonomie sympa. Les prises xlr jack au top. Les micros XY canons. Un prise mini jack pour un micro sans fil : pratique. Le Bluetooth super pratique. C'est une option. Et la cerise sur le gâteau, il fait carte son. Franchement pour le prix, foncez !

This product is a huge disappointment. I have a very long track record with Zoom and their products, but this is by far the worst product. First - it's cheap build. I have their previous generation Zoom H5, and the only reason to change it was it lacked 32bit recording, which I loved as I'm solo youtuber and I love the fact that I don't have to check on levels all the time and previous generation is FAR superior in build quality. This one is cheap plastic, jelly buttons, terrible rocker switch. Secondly - glitches. Today, for the 3rd time the recorder has ruined 1.5hours of recroding. God Bless I had backup recording (which I started to do with this recorder), but I'm trying to return it or sell this crap. I'm so surprised, how such a well established brand could drop in quality so much. Seems like another management decision to cut costs and squeeze every cent out their well selling product. Terrible experience.

As the name suggests this is indeed a handy recorder. It's very portable, the quality is good and it benefits from being able to plug external mics into it if required. It can also by used as an audio interface as well. For me it's best feature is the fact that it is unnecessary to set the recording levels - this is done by the device. And it works very well. I haven't experienced any clipping, but in the unlikely even of this happening if you record in 32 bit float it is possible to reduce the waveform to below peak level. The device itself is light and the record function is operated simply by pressing the red record button. It's that simple. I don't use batteries I prefer to use mains. It can be powered through either a laptop of PC usb or usb mains plug. For those who prefer batteries I've read that the device will go through them quite quickly particularly if phantom power is required for external mics. Another alternative is to use a power bank, such as you might buy to charge a mobile phone while camping. Best check that the power bank is of the correct specifications (shown in the Zoom instructions). I usually mount the device on a camera tripod as if it is hand held, unless you take particular care handling noise will be experienced. It works best with the microphones directed towards and 1-2 metres away from the sound source. Recordings can be played back using the onboard speaker, although the sound quality is not great. There is a headphone socket which allows for much better audio. The only thing which bothers me is the file system. It is not possible to name the tracks. They are named for you using the date. Having said this if you transfer the files to a laptop or PC then it is possible to rename them, so it's not a problem which can't be overcome. I find this device very handy for recording rehearsals or in any situation where you want to capture high quality stereo sound quickly. Once you are familiar with the way the device works it's very easy to use and delivers very acceptable results at a modest price.
