Zoom H6 portable professional handheld digital recorder H4N upgraded section Handy 6-Track for interview X/Y Side Mic 2GB WTSTR

The H6 Handy from Zoom is a portable handheld recorder and USB audio interface that features an interchangeable microphone system. The recorder ships with both XY and mid-side microphone modules, foam windscreen, 2GB SD card, four AA batteries, USB cable, Cubase LE and a hard carrying case. Optional module attachments can be purchased for expanded functionality.   The H6 Handy allows for versatile recording techniques, giving you several options right out of the box. 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 stereo image, 120 degrees. For situations that call for audio that allows for width control over your stereo image after it has been recorded, the XY module can be switched out 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 you the ability to adjust the width of your stereo audio after it has been recorded, MS recording also provides true mono compatibility, a factor that comes into play in situations such as television production. In addition, the 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. Also, each of the four combo inputs has its own -20dB pad.   The 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 unit 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.   Main Features: Large full-color angled LCD display that allows visibility whether mounted on a camera or strapped over shoulder XYH-6 X/Y capsule also provides a secondary input for connecting an external mic or line level signal via stereo 1/8" mini jack Optional wired controllers for remote transport controls Optional hairy windscreen offers improved wind diffusion Built-in speaker, located on the underside of the unit, for fast monophonic monitoring of the recorded signal without the need to make any connections Interchangeable input capsules that can be swapped out as easily as the lens of a camera Six-track simultaneous recording Four mic/line inputs with XLR/TRS combo connectors Physical gain control knobs and -20dB pads for each input Phantom power for all main inputs: +12/+24/+48V Records directly to SD, SDHC and SDXC cards up to 128GB Up to 24-bit/96kHz audio in BWF-compliant WAV or a variety of MP3 formats Auto-record, pre-record and backup-record functions Multitrack to stereo internal mixdown Independent monitor and playback mixes Graphical VU meters Voice memo and up to 99 marks per recording Overdubbing, up to 99 takes Built-in effects, including low-cut filtering, compression and limiting Onboard MS decoding Normalize, Divide and Trim editing Chromatic tuner and metronome Loop Playback with user-defined start and stop points Variable playback speed, from 50% to 150% Variable pitch per track without affecting playback speed USB port for data exchange to and from computer Multichannel and stereo USB audio interface for PC/Mac/iPad Camera strap mounts Mounts directly to DSLR or camcorder with optional HS-01 Hot Shoe Mount adapter Accepts standard AA alkaline or NiMH rechargeable batteries Over 20 hours of operation with 4 AA alkaline batteries Recording Media  SD card: 16 MB to 2 GB SDHC card: 4 GB to 32 GB SDXC card: 64 GB to 128 GB Input Connections  4 x XLR/TRS combo jacks; XLR: Pin 2 hot; TRS: Tip hot  1x 1/8" stereo mini jack (XYH-6 MIC/LINE IN) Input Gain  -∞ to 55.5 dB (PAD OFF) -∞ to 35.5 dB (PAD ON) Input Level  -∞ to 46.5 dB (XYH-6 MIC/LINE IN) Input Impedance  6.8 kΩ (INPUTS 1 to 4)  2 kΩ (XYH-6 MIC/LINE IN) Maximum Input Level  +22 dBu, PAD ON (INPUTS 1 to 4) Phantom Power  +12V /+24V /+48V, independent (INPUTS 1 to 4)  2.5V plug-in power, (XYH-6 MIC/LINE IN) Equivalent Input Noise  -120 dBu or less Output Connections  1x 1/8" stereo mini jack (LINE OUT)  1x 1/8" stereo mini jack (PHONE OUT) Output Level  -10 dBu when output load impedance is 10 kΩ or more (LINE OUT)  20 W +20 W into 32 Ω load (PHONE OUT) Built-in Speaker  400mw 8 Ω mono speaker Recording Formats  WAV, MP3 Sample Rate  44.1/48/96 kHz (WAV) 44.1 kHz (MP3) Bit Depth  16, 24 (WAV) Bit Rate  48/56/64/80/96/112/128/160/192/224/256/320 kbps (MP3) Max Simultaneous Recording  8 (L/R + INPUT 1 to 4 + L/R backup), backup recording: -12dB lower than set L/R input gain (WAV)  -or- 2 (MP3) Recording to SD Card  With 2 GB card:  03:08:00 (44.1 kHz / 16-bit WAV) 34:43:00 (128 kbps MP3) Display  2.0-inch full color LCD (320 x 240 pixels) USB Port  Mass Storage Class operation:  USB 2.0 high speed  -or- Audio Interface operation, multi-track mode:  USB 2.0 high speed, multi-track or stereo modes Power Requirements  AA size (LR6) battery x 4  AC adapter: AD-17 (DC5V/1A/USB-type) (optional) USB bus power Battery Life  Over 20 hours (with alkaline battery, continuous recording) Dimensions  3 x 6 x 1.9" (77.8 x 152.8 x 47.8 mm) Weight  9.9 oz (280 g) Microphone: Type  XYH-6 X/Y: Unidirectional  MSH-6 MS: Unidirectional and bi-directional Sensitivity  XYH-6 X/Y: -41 dB, 1 kHz at 1 Pa  MSH-6 MS: 37 dB, 1 kHz at 1 Pa (unidirectional);  -39 dB, 1 kHz at 1 Pa (bi-directional) Input Gain  XYH-6 X/Y: -∞ to 46.5 dB  MSH-6 MS: -∞ to 42.5 dB Maximum SPL  XYH-6 X/Y: 136 dB SPL  MSH-6 MS: 120 dB SPL (unidirectional)  122 dB SPL (bi-directional) Dimensions  XYH-6 X/Y: 3.1 x 2.4 x 1.8" (78.9 x 60.2 x 45.2 mm)  MSH-6 MS: 2.3 x 2.66 x 1.65" (58 x 67.6 x 42.1 mm) Weight  XYH-6 X/Y: 4.6 oz (130 g) MSH-6: 3 oz (85 g)     What is in the box: XY Microphone Mid-Side Microphone USB Cable 2GB SD Card Hard Case Cubase LE Foam Windscreen Limited 1-Year Warranty
