mdlbearSamson Zoom H4 Handy Digital Recorder
Records two tracks at 24-bit, 96KHz, or four tracks at 16-bit, 44.1KHz. Also records direct to MP3 at up to 320KB/s. Built-in electret condenser mics plus XLR connectors with phantom power. Street price is $300, which is at least $50 less than any of its competitors.
The bad points are: no 24-bit recording in 4-track mode, and although it can function as a USB audio interface, it only does so at 16 bits. Battery life is only 4 hours; on the other hand that's roughly twice what you'll get out of a 2GB SD card at 24 bits. Bring spares.
