Zoom H6STUDIO H6studio Multi-Track Handy Recorder

Pro Sound Every Time You Press Record The H6studio features large-diaphragm XY microphones, four studio-grade preamps, and 32-bit float recording with dedicated gain knobs. Built with F-Series technology, it’s the most advanced Handy Recorder to date. More The Power of F-Series Preamps The H6studio’s preamps deliver ultra-clean audio (-127 dBu EIN). Paired with dual A/D converters and 32-bit float, they provide 132 dB of dynamic range to capture every nuance. The Perfect Pair The onboard mics are stacked at a 90º angle to form a perfect X/Y pair. This minimizes phase cancellation commonly experienced with AB and other mic arrangements that can result in hollow sound. Bigger Mics, Bigger Sound The H6studio’s 19.4mm microphones capture a rich, flat-response with a wide dynamic range that can withstand 140 dB SPL, enough for a jet engine. Switch Formats, Not Recorders 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 H6studio offers the best of both worlds with 32-bit float and dedicated gain knobs—no clipping and no need for post-production. And with the dedicated format switch, you can adapt your workflow quickly. 6 Tracks Plus a Stereo Mix Record with sample rates from 44.1 to 192 kHz. The H6studio can capture up to 8 tracks* at once - 6 individual tracks plus a stereo mix. *Stereo mix is only available up to 96kHZ The Noise Stops Here Carefully designed RF shielding blocks interference from smartphones and Wi-Fi, while the shock-mounted mics help reduce handling noise. Limiters That Look Ahead The H6studio features “advanced look-ahead” limiters which anticipate potential overloads and prevent distortion before it reaches your track. Four XLR/TRS Inputs + Stereo Mini Jack The H6studio includes four locking XLR/TRS inputs with +48V phantom power and +4dBu line-level support. It also has a stereo mini jack with plug-in power.
