Hi all. Following with interest your discussions today on digital recorders.
I note that a member mentioned my hero, Mr. Neil Ewers. I've had a few devices but after listening to Neil's demo of the Zoom H6, I went out and bought one.

I must agree with Neil, it's the best handy recorder that I have ever come across. I can record a folk band with it's built-in XY microphone capsule at 24 bitt, 196 Khz in WAV format and it sounds even better than CD quality. Another internet friend, who listened to my recording said that it was in blue ray quality, whatever that means? all I know that it's a fantastic device and although a bit expensive, very much considering before choosing a new device. The only problem I have is the fact that hardly any blind people have yet started to use it, apart from Neil and myself, so there is little support out there, for example, understanding the menu structures etc. The Zoom H6 does not speak at all so it's a matter of getting sighted assistance to set it up before you start recording. It has four XLR sockets plus the Xy and Right-side microphone detachable modules and has line in as well as a line out function, enabling this device to take over the audio on a DSLR, or to enable monitoring of recording as you get it, via a AV unit. I'd be very interested in meeting any other blind users of this device or even join a support mailing list. Any advice very welcomed. Very best wishes. Andy. I'd be
