I use this device in conjunction with the Rode VideoMic to me to fish the tone for my videos. And what should I say. The quality just blows me away. Although I am only an average Joe handset and no sound professional but this thing is a must-have. When I connect the Videomic to my PC (Otto Normal sound card), I have maxed out the quality of the directional microphone only felt 10%. The Zoom H1, it is really a dream.
A few small negative points are esa over after all. - The built-in speaker could have been even save yourself. The is so silent ... Buy Dear headphones! - It does not feel soooo at super stable. But by the low price to justify that.
