Portable field recorder with multiple inputsIntegrated stereo microphoneSwappable mic modules8 inputsOver the last few years, Zoom has become a giant in the world of portable recorders and podcasting solutions.

For your money, you get a field recorder, a podcasting solution, a multi-track hardware recorder and a multi-channel audio interface.
