I have had the 24 and the 16 for a few yrs now ( i created a master and slave setup for more tracks, ease, etc). I am not a big fan of computer recording so this setup works for me. Of course you can always get bogged down in details etc but over all for price and what it can do i would recommend. If you are deciding on the 16 or the 24. Go with the 24! Hope my review helps!

Went to school for recording. Very comfortable with pro tools and the ins and outs of working in studios. I got the zoom 24 a couple months ago for demos and writing. It takes A couple hours of watching YouTube videos n reading the manual to learn. It’s so nice to get away from computers and to just press record. Learn the ins and outs like how to punch in ,adding a little FX. And especially moving recorded tracks / swap tracks to different tracks so you don’t have to unplug your mic and plug it into another input every time. (Very important and very easy) It’s workflow is a lot more like tape machines then DAWs. PROs. I haven’t had this much fun in a while. Pro tools puts this pressure on recording like it better sound perfect. This thing just plug in and get the tracks down to test how different parts sound. Move forward and backwards from the mic or stereo mic’s for depth as an effect nstd of adding this or that. It’s fast once you get going and you’ll be surprised at the speed you can track at. Value for money is incredible . No need for new computers And the constant money grab for updates just to have the original tools you had before. CONs. Pre amps are noisy ( what do u expect) but if you use a half decent condenser it knocks a lot of the fuzz down . You can use external mic preamps but these will work just fine. But if your looking for very clean recordings I suggest a external gate with external mic pre to make recordings a lot cleaner so you don’t hear any mic pre hiss. Cool tip- Don’t want external pre n noise gate. You can use the internal mic pres (they r fine) but to knock down the mic pre noise use what’s called ZNR. Press effect. Turn on. Down to algorithm. Change it to Mastering. Down to input SRC. Choose which input your mic is plugged into. Then down to Edit click enter. Click right or left till you see TOTAL. Click down to ZNR. Now talk or play into your mic and adjust the ZNR up until after you speak into the mic it closes to stop any mic pre noise. When you read it it sounds complicated but once your up and going it’s really not. Great for vocals. Just remember it’s only on that channel. But if you “swap” / move what you just recorded onto another channel another it remains on the recording. So I use the same channel or 2 to record and just keep on swapping the recordings to different channels. So much faster then changing this setting or that. Also important under effects button is where you pick your reverb N chorus type of FX. Under pan/eq button is where how much you send into the reverb or chorus is located. Kinda confusing but once you’ve done these things a couple times your flying. Have fun.

The sound alone is the reason to buy. Would be better if it recorded at 24/96, if it had pan knobs, fx knobs, eq knobs, and MIDI. Other than that, a great unit.

All is great until the gain knobs start getting scratchy and ruin recordings after a couple of months. No RMA when it happens after warranty. Third Zoom product to let me down!

I did a LOT of research on different machines before getting this. There is a learning curve, but play with it and have fun, easy to setup and record. Learn the sequencer and you'll be able to get drums, bass, guitar tracks etc done for a whole song. I especially like the fact that I can play guitar riffs over and over or try different things/sounds/attack etc, select the best part, trim the rest, this becomes the loop. Saving to SD cards is quick, easy, reliable and transferrable. The software driver for windows 8 hasn't been released yet (Jan 2013), but ok up to windows 7 as an interface and controller. However the SD cardreader function works with windows 8. I can record in the R24 then transfer the files into the PC, I also have the main outs plugged into the LINE-IN on the computer and works like a charm.

I have a M Box and software that i have been using for some time for home recording. works fine but was looking for a portable solution and the guys at LM suggested the r24, Well lets just say I don;t use the M box much any more. I the R24 is so easy to use and the feature set so rich that I have switched almost exclusively to using it even with when recording at home with software. Firstly is functions as an audio interface as well as a portable recorder. I found that when I was not working with the software I focused more on the music and got way more done. the software approach has so many distractions and I was always fighting with the machine so to speak. not the case with the R24. This recorder is so reasy to use and sound just as good. I love it. It has a cool onboard sampler and drum machine that is worth the price alone. made some killer s transfering files to the computer for editing is fast and easy. I still record some stuff directly into the software and there are two thing that make this unit better than my mbox. It has this control surface feature where the R24 controls the software. The transport and faders work the software like a real mixer. how cool is that. The other thing is you can use the onboard effect even when its an interface. This has solved a whole bunch of latency issues with the computer. I play guitar and have tried virtual amp etc. and was always bothered by the slight delay when recording and using the software plug ins. Not any more. The R24 offloads the processing to itself and there is no latency when on the amp modeling inside the R24. I can still record the guitar dry and bring it back into the software virtual amp plug of choice on playback but no delay when I record. this is absolutely necessary in my opinion when recording guitar. also do the same thing when recording vocals. splash a little reverb on when recording make me sing better yet I get a dry track in software I can do what ever with after. this is totally pro. Anyhow all I can say is the R24 is the best recording unit I have bought and as a result I have more than doubles the amount of songs recorded and written over the last 2 months. All i can say is just buy it. If you want to make music and not battle the machine the r24 is the way to go.
