Guitar Recording Studio Experience

Great for recording combo guitar amp in my home studio.- Good audio quality.-

Really enjoying this for my home studio. Tested by recording an acoustic guitar and it sounds much better than my acoustic pickups.

Great addition to any recording studio, pro or home. I've found it particularly good for recording acoustic guitar.

for recording my classical guitar

The H2N and me are close to a perfect storm. I am a performer/songwriter with 40 years of music experience. I also have 25 years experience in multitrack recording. What I needed was a high quality, easy to use, digital recorder for sketching out tunes before firing up the entire studio and doing the real takes. Or just to record practices. The H2N delivers in spades. Crystal clear, accurate recording at the flip of a switch. My default settings are the highest res stereo wav with the Lo-Cut and Limiter 1 filters on. I even put it in a corner of the room at a party/acoustic jam and got GREAT results. No low frequency rumble and no clipping. No, it is not multi-track, studio recording where you can isolate each instrument, but that is not what the H2N is for. For on-the-fly it is nothing short of magnificent. I have not tried the 4-channel features yet so I cannot speak to that. 3 final notes: 1) 2 AA batteries provide about 12 hours of recording. 2) The H2N comes with a 2-Gig Disc (thank you Zoom,) but buy a 32-Gig Disc and you get 15 hours of high resolution, wav file recording. 15 Hours! Uncompressed! 3) The H2N comes with Steinberg's Wavelab LE7. No, it is not Cubase, or Pro Tools, or whatever... but it is ridiculously rich in filters and options and effects to dress up the raw files. Like I said, I haven't done any 4-track recording with it and I do not believe that the included WL-LE7 will read 4 tracks (files)... BUT, the H2N does allow for converting 4-channel recordings to 2-track before exporting. For its ease of use, crystal clear recording and flexibility I strongly, passionately recommend getting the H2N. I've had it a week and flat-out LOVE it.

I purchased this microphone to use in a home recording studio to record myself for the purposes of practice and make audition tapes. So far it has accurately captured the sound my instrument (double bass, acoustic guitar). After reading a lot of reviews I chose this microphone because it seemed to represent a good value and would be an inexpensive microphone to invest it while I learned some recording basics and figured out my DAW. I don't have very much experience as an engineer, but I do have years of experience in the studio as a professional musician, so while I can not compare it to many other microphones, I can say I am pleased with the sound I am getting in my humble little studio, especially for the price. If you are like me, on a budget and not really sure where to start with condenser mics you can't go wrong with the MCA SP1. Good value.

Perfect for recording acoustic guitar, or pretty much any instrument. ...
