Hey, Dale, 


I have a very similar machine, also by Zoom, the H4N, and it's great. The built-in mics sound great, and you can plug in two more mics of your choice, or line feeds, and record four channels at once. MP3, CD-quality (16-bit/44.1kHz), and better-than-cd (24-bit/96kHz) recorded to SD card. Multi-track overdubbing, too. I think yours is stereo-only, which should be great for your purpose. Here's a link: http://www.sweetwater.com/mobile/detail.php?itemid=H4N


Not suggesting you should change your order, but to help other shoppers ... 8-)


Consider measuring mic position (x, y, and z plane), plus piano position relative to walls, for repeatable results. Can make a huge difference in recorded sound.

Hey Dale,


I'm curious what the recording device is.  I've been looking for something that does a nice job of capturing the sound of instruments I've rebuilt, that is very portable, and that doesn't break the bank.  I'd be interested in any recommendations, especially from someone with experience in what it is we're trying to record.


Thanks,
Bill


BTW, I'm not real good at social responsibility at times, but I wanted you to know I've been thinking of you and the passing of your Dad.  I've never met the man, but knowing you, I can only imagine what an important person he was to you.  I know you've had a difficult couple of years, and I just wanted you to know you're thought of here in the Midwest.

FWIW,... here is just one comment from a recent client.
    I'm hoping to have some recordings of pianos with differetn varietys of the Ronsen hammers installed in them. I am waiting delivery for a portable hand held digital recorder recommended by an engineer on recent visit from a S.F. recording studio.
 Thanks- Dale

I keep meaning to write to thank you for the work you guys did on my Baldwin
action back in September (Ronsen Weickert felt) hammers, shanks, flanges, capstans, etc.).
Together with the expert regulation by Mark Schecter the work you did has
left me with a very special SF10 which I look forward to playing every day.
I hope we can arrange some similar transformation for my 1927 B in the not
too distant future.”
