Zoom H6 Black 6-Channel Handheld Recorder
Product no: 9000-0062-9619

Product information

General

In some cases, the two or four inputs of a standard handheld recorder just won't cut it. To provide you with a fitting solution, Zoom introduce the H6. This 6-channel recorder is equipped with two microphones (X-Y) and four inputs and if needed, the microphone can be removed and swapped out for an optional microphone module.

The Zoom H6: Possibilities

The six channels of the H6 allow for a truckload of possibilities, including two-mic stereo recordings of four close-miked solos or 6-member bands. Sure, bigger and more extensive multi-trackers can do the same thing, but are actually nowhere near as small, practical and portable as the H6. There's a colour display to provide with you an overview of the functions and level-metering, and your recordings can be saved an SD card (not included) for easy file exchange with a PC.

Zoom H6 Black 6-Channel Handheld Recorder

Unbelievably brilliant price from Bax, making it the great value it used to be before Zoom did away with the extra capsule and "gift box" it originally came with. Arrived before the advertised time, properly packed and protected. The new firmware (now on 2.40) makes it much easier to use the L/R mics for overdubbing, and you can pretty much import your starter file into the Input 1/2 slot in seconds, as long as you have recorded any brief file using 1/2, and then change the name of your imported file to match that, freeing up L/R for overdubbing once you've used the "rebuild project" option. Clear display, much better jog wheel than my old H4N, with much more definite operation. X/Y mic unit much sturdier than H4N, and I like being able to disconnect it and keep it out of harm's way when downloading files to my DAW.
