I bought a Zoom years ago after hearing the results of Lasse Collin's YouTube postings (here's an example): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_gmoq3dDry8
I corresponded with Lasse prior to making the purchase, and he was very kind in verifying the zoom model he uses/used, and such.
I've found the trick is absolutely to spend some time finding the right "spot" in the room, and bringing in deadening materials as needed. I'm not good at that type of thing, so it took me the better part of a day to get the sound deadened "just right" for what I wanted to do the first time.
Another time, I just plopped the recorder onto a pillow, and made some quick recordings to send off. I ended up liking them just as well as the ones I made with the more complicated setup. So - depending on what I'm doing, and how many people are involved, I go back and forth between the complicated and the simple; but once you find what works, it will work each time.
When I've recorded live in clubs and such, I find the recording to be very close to what the audience actually heard at the performance.
