I recently bought a Zoom H2 digital recorder, after a year or two of wanting one. It would’ve been great to have if I continued doing linguistics, but even now I think it’s going to prove useful. The day after it came, I brought it along to a meeting so we could record the whole thing and hang onto the MP3 file for future reference. I can use it for recording live music, and I hope to use it in the future for an oral-history type project I’ve been thinking about.
Best part? It’s way cute. Like a mini spaceship. Worst part? I still need to learn that recording doesn’t start until you push the record button TWICE.
