The best all-time french singer – Claude François – would’ve liked to participate in…..he died 25 years ago but nobody will never forget his “claudettes”!!acoustica1ParticipantWell, a very talented nice boy with nice teeth . 😀
acoustica1ParticipantEXACTLY what I need !!!!!

acoustica1ParticipantThank you Lee for the compliment!
Is that my destiny? Playing alone all my life?…Ok but I will need (at least) four very pretty girls dancing behind me when I perform live in Nashville!! 😀
acoustica1ParticipantHmmm…. 😀
Well, If I was able to write lyrics, to find a melody, to sing perfectly, to add different instruments and to make an arrangement like that one so quickly , everytime a guy sends me a sample…I would be a professional!acoustica1ParticipantTime to talk about the H2.
Actually available in United states, UK and Germany.Two samples found on the internet :
1/ acoustic guitar recording (wav file, can take time to upload)

I got my Zoom H2 a day ago and have been playing with it ever since. If you’re pressed for time, here’s my one word review:
WOW
For those with more time on their hands, I’ll try to flesh that out a bit.
First, it’s small and cool looking. Very light, even with batteries, but feels more durable than the H4. I actually dropped it once already and didn’t damage the little bugger.I think Zoom learned some lessons from the feedback it got on the H4, because the H2 leaves little room for improvement. Unlike the H4, the H2 is really designed with one purpose in mind; it’s a VERY portable stereo recorder. Yes, there are some extras in there, but the main controls and interface are directed toward being able to quickly and easily grab live sound. Out of the box I was able to make my first recording within seconds. Try that with the PS-02, PS-04, or H4.
The H2 shares one of the H4’s strongest features; one button recording. But in this case, the button gives a better tactile response, which is a plus. Push the red record button once for standby mode to set your levels, then push it again to start recording. Push it a third time to end the recording.
While there are plenty of menus to dig through for special features, all the main features have buttons to control them. Zoom ditched the jog wheel and joystick from the H4, and instead went with very easy to use buttons. They also created a much easier menu system than that found on the H4. Granted, I’m comparing apples and a four course meal here, but for some users the H4 was too complicated, making the abundance of features a negative instead of a positive. Unlike the H4, the H2 doesn’t do multitrack recording, doesn’t have guitar or vocal effects, and doesn’t have a plugin for electric guitar or bass (although there are stereo line in and mic in mini-jacks). That said, I think with the H2 Zoom found the perfect balance of features and ease of use.
Ok, so what are the extra features? To start there’s a compressor, limiter, automatic gain control, metronome with choice of sounds and rhythms, and tuner. You can choose between different mic patterns, from 90 degree spread to 360 degrees. In the latter case, you can choose between mixing down to one stereo file keeping two stereo files that can later be used to create a surround sound mix. You can record to MP3 or WAV, with a choice of sound quality settings that will satisfy one and all.
Two of the cooler extras are auto recording and lead in. Auto recording lets you set a sound level as a threshold. When sound goes above this level, the H2 starts recording. You can also set a level that ends recording when sound goes below it. Imagine you’re sitting with guitar in hand strumming out some song ideas. The H2 will record when you’re playing or singing, and stop when you’re not. Each recording will be it’s own file that you can play back later. Great idea! The other cool feature keeps recording before you hit record. Then when you do hit record, it keeps the first few seconds from before you pushed the button. Imagine you’re recording a live band and they start the next song before you hit record. No problem, it’s already on the H2. Brilliant!
There’s much more to this device and I encourage you to check out the specs at http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=1916
At $200 the Zoom H2 is a great deal. If you want a musical idea catcher that you can carry with you everywhere (or stick in your guitar case) this is it. Sound quality is great, ease of use is fantastic. The H2 comes with a desk stand, a handle that will fit on most mic stands, earbuds, a half gig SD card, and a USB cable. Interfacing with the computer is as easy as plugging it in, no special software needed.

Opinion?Thanks in advance.
acoustica1ParticipantI can understand, lee, that my stupid replies could bother you, and I’m sorry about that.
I talked about myself last year here in a thread.
I am a 45 year old kid who hates his life “in general”.
I’m waiting for only one thing in this life : I would like my 6 years old daughter to be able to talk.She doesn’t pronounce any word and I’m becoming crazy , a little bit more day after day!
I work as an air traffic controller but aircrafts are really not my cup of tea.I am very serious at work, of course, but that’s for the money only!So I try to have fun here, and I like sharing music with other people.
I started playing classical guitar at the age of 11, then I quit at 17 and went back to guitar at the age of 27.I learned playing many songs a few years ago and actually I would be still able to play them, because I spent hours and hours…so many hours playing my guitars!
I have this hobby : I try to find short samples of my own , and I simply forget them as soon as they are recorded. -
