Wow, that's a Zoom product I haven't seen before. I had always been skeptical about Zoom products until I bought the Zoom H4 and I really like it. Overall I'm really happy with the H4. I haven't seen or heard about this recorder so I couldn't tell you anything about it, but the main thing I'd be worried about would be how cheap the preamps and AD would sound. The H4 sounds decent at $300, for an extra $100 they add 6 more inputs - they have to have compromised somewhere, unfortunately.
I personally used the Korg D888 for 3 years as a portable 8-track recorder with great results. But it's $700 new, AND it was only 44/16.
Just check the specs and hunt for some reviews. The one thing that stuck out on the specs - only two mic inputs have phantom power. That might be a problem for you, it might not. You could also find 6 PP sources on the cheap somewhere? The ability to gang two together for 16 channels is really cool.
If you get it be sure to tell us how it is.
