Best digital audio recorder for Kawai MP8ii Pro Stage Piano?

[cmg]

I want to record myself directly through the Kawai digital piano.  I heard the Zoom H4n digiral audio recorder is the best for this.  Any suggestions or recommendations?

If you are recording a direct line out from your DP, almost any recorder that captures a minimum 44.1 khz / 16 bit will do.  You could even plug your DP directly to your computer if it has a line in. 

The H4n has combination XLR and 1/4" TRS inputs, so it will give you a lot of flexibility to what you plug in.   Of course it has its internal mics that you can use to capture sound as well.  But as you are using a digital piano using a direct line input is probably a better route.  You can use the internal mics when you play on an acoustic piano. 


I've got an H4n and use it when I need a small portable recorder.  You can search the Audition room if you want to hear samples of it's internal mics.  I've also done comparison recordings between the H4n and other mics.
