Zoom H8 12-Track Portable Recorder, Stereo Microphones, 6 Inputs, Touchscreen Interface, USB Audio Interface, Battery Powered, for Stereo/Multitrack Audio for Video, Podcasting, and Music

Product Information

Thanks to its small, low-profile design, the DR-10X is ideal for interviews, weddings, and vlogs where the audio equipment needs to stay out of sight. The PMB-661 Mk III has a relatively limited feature set for musicians, but if you need to record round-table discussions for podcasts then it does come complete with an omni-directional boundary mic to capture 360-degree audio. That would make it practical to hook up a remote podcast contributor via a phone or computer without risk of howlrounds! mm input, since otherwise, it would occupy not one but two of the H8’s 1/4 inputs, A and B, which would also require occupying two inputs. Bottom line is that it has been almost 2 years since I bought the ZOOM and I am not just happy with it, I love it.
