Zoom H5STUDIO H5studio Multi-Track Handy Recorder, 32-Bit Float

Your Best Work Starts Here The H5studio was made for seamless and professional production. Creators can record flawless audio with stunningly clear microphones, studio-grade preamps, and 32-bit float recording. More The Largest Mics Ever on a Handy Recorder The 19.4mm microphones capture audio with incredible frequency response, 140 dB max SPL, and an expansive dynamic range. Their increased size captures recordings with unmatched depth and fidelity. F-Series Preamps, Now in Your Hands The H5studio's inputs feature our F-series preamps, giving your audio unmatched clarity (-127 dBu EIN).  With dual AD converters and 32-bit float, they deliver an impressive 132dB dynamic range, capturing everything without noise or distortion. Complete Control, Zero Clipping 32-bit float and 16/24-bit formats each have their advantages. 32-bit float prevents clipping but requires post-production. 16/24-bit eliminates the need for post-processing but requires gain adjustment to prevent clipping. The H5studio offers the best of both worlds with 32-bit float and dedicated gain knobs—no clipping and no need for post-production. Six Tracks Up to 192 kHz The H5studio captures up to six tracks (four iso-tracks plus a stereo mix) with sample rates up to 192 kHz. Protect Your Sound Carefully engineered RF shielding keeps interference from smartphones and Wi-Fi routers out of your recordings, anywhere you go. Advanced Limiters The H5studio features “advanced look-ahead” limiters which anticipate potential overloads and prevent distortion before it reaches your track. The Inputs The two locking XLR/TRS inputs support +48V phantom power and +4dBu line level. There is also a 3.5mm stereo jack with plug-in power.
