OVERVIEW
The Zoom H6 is the perfect audio recorder for almost all applications. It features 4 XLR inputs, each with the option for phantom power. As well as an input for one of the Zoom's 'capsules'. The built-in preamps provide amazing, high-quality sound. recording.
The Zoom H6 comes with 2 microphone capsules:
- XYH-6 X/Y Capsule: The H6's included X/Y capsule employs two angled high-quality unidirectional mics which are sensitive to signals coming from the front but less to signals coming from the sides and rear. X/Y recording is optimum when you want to cover a wide area yet still capture a strong center image, making it the perfect choice for all types of live stereo recording.
- MSH-6 MS Capsule: Welcome to “Mid-Side” recording, a whole new level of precision in your ability to shape the sound. The H6's provided MS Capsule contains dual mic elements – a forward-facing, unidirectional mic (the “Mid”) and a side-facing, bi-directional mic (the “Side”). Together with the H6's onboard MS decoder, they capture a fully mono-compatible stereo image that can actually be adjusted after recording – ideal for film, video, and television projects.
