Zoom H6essential – 6 Track 32-Bit Float Handy Recorder (H6E)

Presented as Zoom‘s flagship handheld recorder, the H6essential Portable Recorder offers six tracks of pristine, distortion-free audio without the need to set levels. With 32-bit float recording and hot-swappable X/Y mics that can handle 135 dB with ease, the H6essential offers a versatile pain-free audio solution.

The four XLR-1/4″ combo inputs feature low-noise and high-quality Zoom mic preamps and sport +48V phantom power for driving professional condenser mics. An onboard mixer is easy to use with the bright 2″ colour display to adjust individual tracks and directly view waveforms in real-time. The H6essential can utilize its USB-C port for power and stream up to two audio channels to computers and smart devices, acting as a 6-in / 2-out interface. Furthermore, the recorder is tripod mountable, allowing it to be conveniently used in a fixed location or atop a camera via an adapter for field recording duties.
