Yaeji

Yaeji is in Fact Magazine’s "Against The Clock", a format where artists create music within 10 minutes. Around 11:33 into this video Yaeji states: > And then I recorded vocals that I just improvised from… I have different notebooks that I just write down random lyrics on. So I picked some and just improvised and then brought that in. I chose to use my Zoom, because I like the quality it gets from my voice and I have a very whispery voice.

Can be used as an audio interface or recorder!

Quite useful for field recording and with it's dual function as a audio interface. Careful as these are quite fragile. Mine has something rattling inside and bent microphone from it falling from a microphone stand. Still functions fine though.

Field recording crown has it.

It's quiet informative and multi-functional little machine that I have for field recording. Not only for sound designers, also for movie makers so useful.

Amazing All-Purpose Recording Device

I use this guy in the field, in the studio, and everywhere else. It seems to do it all, and the battery lasts forever. Bought one years ago and have never had a problem.

My best companion

Wherever I go, this recorder is connected to the DJ booth. What I love is that it's plug and play. The only thing I'd love it to have is wifi.
