I know some folks will be ok with it but, as with zoom in general, the cons=
truction is a bit iffy - very plastic indeed - + the pre-amps are noisy & t=
he mics themselves aren't that good. Whenever we do group mic tests on work=
shops - all set up in a semi-circle recording at the same time etc. the zoo=
m's can always be spotted when we playback the recordings without telling f=
olks which is which. They're thin & brittle sounding.
