About this deal

The H2 can record in WAV format (at 96, 48, or 44.1kHz in either 16 or 24 bit depth). Recording to compressed MP3 format at up to 320 kbit/s or VBR is supported in the 2-channel recording mode. Officially the H2 supports SD flash memory cards, but some SDHC cards of up to 32GB capacity have been confirmed by Zoom to work. [5]

Both the 2-channel and 4-channel surround sound the same, the difference is in how they get stored. That’s why I’m just showing one example. Since it comes with a free Cubase License, I will assume that you are using that specific DAW and I will show you how to use certain plugins, such as the MS-decoder, in that DAW. A low-cut filter removes signal below a designated frequency. This is useful for eliminating pops, wind noise, blowing, and other kinds of low frequency rumble such as transmitted resonance from an onstage mic stand.

One of the cool things of having these effects is that you can record really loud rehearsals and not worry about clipping the signal. IF that happens, then sure! Add some slight compression, but like I stated earlier, you will be much better off adding those effects in post! Recording a live band or rehearsal: The Comp/limiter configurations, which come with a General, Vocal and Drum compression Config. And a General, Concert and Studio limiter config.

with too much fat or too much sugar, you'll be glad to learn that we made them ourselves with fresh, organic and fair ingredients, On one side of the H2, you can adjust 3 input level modes (low/medium/high) for the integrated mics, and on the other side you can adjust the output volume via the + and – buttons. The computer connection is USB 2.0 (mini-connector). This USB connection allows PC connection, and also Macs, without drivers (class-compliant). With many on board effects such as Low-Cut, Compression and Limiting, the Zoom H2n will get you some of the best recordings even with extremely loud sounding sound sources.I saw a post from two years ago about trying to use the Zoom H2 with Windows 10, and how it wouldn't work, chalking it up to using USB 3.0 ports instead of USB 2.0. The post was archived but you can see it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/audio/comments/8lj1qf/zoom_h2_on_windows_10_and_usb_30/ Not sure what you mean by the mic overdrives, but are you sure the Zoom is the selected sound input? Just getting this out of the way first… I just make sure that the levels are set correctly, meaning that there is no clipping going on, and that’s it. To give you a preview of the H2’s possibilities, I took the H2 along with me to my group’s rehearsal. It’s still the best way to test the device!

Most likely that was definitely NOT the issue. I had the same issue, and I was able to resolve it. It wasn't related to drivers or anything similar. In my setup, I could see the H2 as a microphone, I could see it in Zoom and other programs, but no signal would be seen. You have the ability to control this with the “play”button, if you push it upwards you DECREASE the side microphones level, if push it downwards you INCREASE it. Note: While recording acoustic or classical Guitar with the Zoom H2n might be easy to do, if you’re truly looking for the best sounding alternative you should consider investing in some Stereo Pair Microphones. In mp3 mode, tested here in 320 kbps (the best), the sound is virtually perfect also. Nevertheless, during tests in 96 kHz/24 bits, I experienced some pops in the sound, giving the impression that there was a buffer issue (the typical noise). This is no doubt due to the speed of the SD memory card that comes with the device.Or the other option would be to remove the SD card from the bottom and inserting it into an SD card reader. How to use the Zoom H2n as an Audio Interface: Through the Auto Gain option, you can Select the Concert option, which is for loud settings, the Solo option, which is aimed at acoustic performances and the Meeting option, which is best used for low volume sources. In this case, the sound source will just be coming from one direction, the is absolutely no point in recording with the surround option, since it will only add to the ambient sound. Comprehensive, clear and concise instructions on how to use the H2n, Zoom should have hired you to write their manual. Of course, if you use something like Pro Tools, the steps would be almost identical. Let’s get into the specifics and the controls of the Zoom H2n: When looking at it from the top you will see; Zoom H2n Top View
