Zoom Your Audio Anywhere and Everywhere
The H1n's X/Y microphones capture high-quality stereo sound, supporting up to 24-bit audio at sampling rates of 44.1, 48, or 96 kHz in WAV and various MP3 formats

New Controls
With the H1n, Zoom have redesigned the user experience. One-touch button controls make it simple to record songs, audio-for-film, lectures, podcasting, and more. The H1n's new monochromatic 1.25 inch LCD display is easy to read even in the brightest lighting conditions.

Distortion-Free Recording
An advanced onboard limiter offers distortion-free signal up to 120 dB SPL, cleanly recording the loudest of bands. A low-cut filter also helps eliminate pops and unwanted low frequency rumble.

Unlimited Overdubbing
The overdub function lets you add layers of audio, allowing for richer and fuller sounding recordings.

Transcription Made Easy
The H1n's Playback Speed Control lets you transcribe music, interviews and other types of recordings without altering pitch.

Don't Miss the Moment
You can also set the H1n to auto-record, pre-record, and self-time, making sure you always capture the moment.

Mark and Sync
New tone generator makes it easy to calibrate your H1n and camera audio levels.

The Connections You Need
An 1/8 inch stereo mic/line input lets you record with your external microphones or other sound sources, and supplies plug-in power (2.5 volts). Connect headphones via the 1/8 inch headphones output with dedicated volume control. You can also use the H1n's built-in speaker to listen to your recordings.

The H1n's USB port provides a digital output of the stereo mix and allows data to be send to and from your computer. It also allows the H1n to be used as a USB microphone and a microSD card reader.

Free Recording Software
The Zoom H1n comes with free download licenses for Steinberg's Cubase LE music production software and WaveLab LE audio editing software.

Maximum Capacity
The H1n is battery-powered and offers up to 10 hours of recording time. Put it in your pocket, toss it in your backpack, or mount it to a camera—the H1n travels wherever you do.
