The H1n features a number of upgrades and enhancements improving on the original H1, notably the new layout and user-friendly interface that features a monochromatic 1. This will allow you to record an entire night of audio (one of my favorite recordings to capture while camping).

The button layout is logical and always within reach, so we were able to easily start and stop recording as well as maneuver through the menu when changing settings and recording options. The quality od the recording is reasonably good with options of 16 bit and 24 bit recording in 48 (16 bit addiotional 44. Overall, it’s worth it to have a dedicated device to record rehearsal room recordings for your band, as well as pull double-duty to record high-quality audio for your YouTube videos. The back houses the AAA battery compartment and screw mount for a tripod, microphone stand, or boom arm for various recording configurations.

Windows users will need to download the H1n’s dedicated ASIO driver for it to communicate correctly. On the older one, a tripod mount could easily move the buttons on the bottom like switching to mp3 when you wanted wav!

The H1n’s Playback Speed Control lets you transcribe music, interviews and other types of recordings without altering pitch. You can either adjust the levels manually by using the front volume dial or press the AUTO LEVEL button while on the main page to adjust to the current input signal. The “Limiter” and “Auto Level” buttons give the user further control over the quality of sound being recorded.
