but what is the putput of the brahma-in-zoom? is it similar output to h2n? for example suppose i dont have any recorder with me and i just need to record something quickly, and i don't care about ambisonics so much as much as getting a high quality ambience/recording, can i use the brahma-in-zoom? will it output WAVs? or will i need to convert it with a computer
i guess my question is, do i need to do extra processing for every recording with the brahma-in-zoom? cometimes i dont want to use a DAW/software, i just wanna drag/drop the recording into a drive, straight up WAV's and just play them, and not muck around with conversion, ardour, bla bla - can i do this with the b-i-z? i guess i'm saying, is the workflow much more complicated? frankly, i dont wanna be near computers, i wanna be outdoors. also, can i monitor live with headphone the b-i-z?
