The Zoom H4n's built-in X/Y stereo condenser mics allow variable recording patterns at either 90 degrees or 120 degrees by twisting the mics within their sockets. Like the Zoom H2, a windscreen is included that shields the sensitive mics in outdoor recording situations. The Zoom H4n's built-in mics can be used in conjunction with its external mic inputs for a total of four independent channels of simultaneous recording--perfect for a basic drum set recording set-up or a multi-mic recording of an acoustic guitar.
