H2n : Incredibly useful.

12 years ago

I've used this to record pretty much every band practice the last two years. It requires almost no setup and works very well.

There are quite a few features which I'll never use, such as the ability to connect it to a computer through USB and use it as a microphone, or the sound editing functions. I'll happily pop the SD card into the laptop after practice and copy the files to my hard drive, and then do the editing there.

My main issue is with maximum sound level. I find it too easy to overload the mics, and the range on the input sensitivity knob seems to be too limited. Maybe I'm missing something, but crash cymbal drives it into clipping quite easily.
