Zoom has been making portable sound recorders – known as "handy" recorders – for decades. Beloved by videographers and filmmakers, the company has also been a major innovator in the music space, launching multi-effect processors for guitar straps, iPhone microphones, and more recently in a world where everyone seems to have a podcast, podcast recorders.
One of Zoom's latest novel releases is the Zoom Q2n-4K, a palm-sized video recorder aimed squarely at musicians and users wanting to share their music online. It's an adorably small device, with a wide-angle lens on one side, an LCD screen on the back, and a wraparound microphone design incorporating an X/Y stereo array. It can function as a standalone webcam and audio recorder, making it an incredibly versatile product for music teachers and YouTubers equally.
