I finally took the plunge and bought a field recorder. I decided to go with the Zoom H-4. It fit what I was looking to do. What ultimately sold me was the two XLR ins. I was amazed to find that the two AA batteries could supply phantom power to two condensor mics. It really is an amazing little unit.

I also really liked working with Sweetwater. My sales guy was Mike Argo (800) 222-4700  ext 1334. I don’t get any commission or kickback for plugging him, he was just great to work with. The price at Sweetwater was not the lowest (I got mine for $299 with no shipping fee) but the service was great and, again, the shipping was FREE. Mike was patient as I stumbled my way through the questions. He knew his stuff. 

I’m on their mailing list now and so I noticed they have a pretty extensive resource center.  The one I want to bring to your attention is the guide to field/handheld recorders. It is extensive and lists several units I had not seen before. The guide includes a comparison chart, buyer’s guide, and (my favorite) a primer video on handheld recorders.

So, if you are looking at field recorders, then this is a great resource.
