ZOOM H6

get ready to change the way you think about recording forever...

Zoom have been building innovative products for the past thirty years and southcoastmusic have been there every step of the way. With the revolutionary H6 six-track recorder, the bar is raised further still. Four interchangeable input capsules – X/Y, MS, Shotgun, and Dual XLR/TRS Combo – making the ZOOM H6 the ultimate chameleon of the audio world and its advanced preamps make it the best-sounding one too. Whatever your application – live recording, professional film/video work, live broadcast or electronic news gathering – the H6 can handle it with ease.

ZOOM H6 - the most versatile portable recorder...ever.

The ZOOM H6 is a portable handheld recorder and USB audio interface that features an incredible interchangeable microphone system. The ZOOM H6 is supplied with both XY and mid-side microphone modules, a foam windscreen, 2GB SD card, four AA batteries, USB cable, Cubase LE and a hard Carrying case. There is a comprehensive range of optional module attachments that may be purchased for expanded functionality.

Right out of the box, the ZOOM H6 is setup for versatile recording techniques. The included XYH-6 XY microphone module is made up of two matched unidirectional condenser microphones and is intended for capturing accurate, phase-correct stereo audio. The module allows you to adjust the angle of the two mics to either 90 degrees, or for a wider 120 degree stereo image.

The XY module can be also be swapped over for the MSH-6 mid-side stereo microphone module. Contrary to the appearance of the capsule, the mid-side module actually contains two elements positioned on top of one another: a unidirectional mic which faces forward (mid), and a bi-directional mic set perpendicular to it (side). In addition to providing the ability to adjust the width of your stereo audio after it has been recorded, MS recording also provides true mono compatibility, an important factor that comes into play in situations such as television production.

Additionally, the ZOOM H6 is equipped with four XLR/TRS combo inputs for connecting external mic/line sources such as microphones or mixers. All four inputs and each of the mic modules are equipped with their own preamps with dedicated gain knobs that are easily accessible whether you have the unit mounted to your camera or strapped over your shoulder. Each of the four combo inputs also has its own -20dB pad.

The ZOOM H6 recorder allows you to record up to six channels at once and stores them to SDXC memory cards up to 128GB in size. It also features a backup-record option that tracks a duplicate of the left and right channels with -12db input gain. This means that if you find that you have tracked your main audio too loud and that distortion has occurred in your audio, you will have a backup stereo mix with 12 db more headroom as a fail-safe.

The ZOOM H6 also doubles as a 6-in/2-out USB audio interface and it can be used with your computer running the included Cubase LE or other DAW software.
