Hey, I own and used the H1 Zoom and I have to inform you.... 1. You CAN remove the MicroSD card from unit and use a card reader on your computer to access the files on your computer. 2. You CAN format the card on your computer and DELETE FILES off the MicroSD Card via your computer. You can also DRAG and DROP files to your computer to use later in projects. 3. This is NOT a PRO Mic, but the quality is GREAT. Telling people to use WAV as a home user is just wrong. 160 kbps works just fine in MP3 format. A 4GB MicroSD is more than enough space for MP3. but if WAV is a must, then 16GB should be enough or just go 32GB. 4. That AC Power Adapter did not come with mine, purchased from Best Buy. Nice quality video.

I think the idea of leaving the sound card in the ZOOM H-1, or any recorder, is to save ware and tear on the transfer contacts on both the SD card and the ZOOM recorder itself, thus prolonging the life of both. I've had an H-1 for over ten years and it still works great, I just bought a ZOOM H-5 as well,so that I the option of XLR and Phantom powered microphones. Other than tat theH-1 is still the workhorse recorder for every day use.

I can't find a single video anywhere that shows one of these recording a loud rock concert. The best I found was a little three piece band where the drummer might as well have been using brushes. I'm quite impressed by the sound quality, especially compared to older digital dictaphones, but I can't find any examples of how they handle really loud noise with a lot of low frequencies

IMHO, it's best for you to set to 48 kHz / 16 bit if you can. I do not remember if the Zoom H1 can set to that (it's been a while since I made these, let alone used a Zoom H1). This is because most people edit video with those audio settings.

its is some high tech stuff there the h1 , like the impedance changes just above rec level 15 and at i think level 35 and once more at a higher level , need to check , but for lets say line signal then it is best at 15 , olso the usb interface is crazy , so you can hear the music of you pc trough the h1 , trough usb , and it sound crazy much better then my onboard soundcard , + you can hear yourself talk + you can use that for teamspeak example , poeple on teamspeak are shocked from my voice quality , hehe , sad i am not able to turn the mic volume off trough the phones out on the h1 when i use the usb feature .

Canon DSLR cameras currently own, one of the 80D, stereo, with which work performing music bands clips on the street (guitar and cajon) The fact is that, although I think the audio of them very good, especially the 80D that the mics are in front of the body, I decided to invest in a tape recorder to further improve my audio capture ... Well, where is the question: I bought so well spoken Zoom H1 and I opted for it instead of the DR-05 because of the microphones in XY and in this case was expecting a much better audio than recorded by so badly spoken mics internal of DSLR ... My surprise: Audio Zoom H1 was worse than the 80D ... lower and with a more muffled sound ... SET: Both mics were in automatic mode, the same distance as the subject (since the H1 was on camera shoe) ... The only difference is that I configured the H1 to better quality WAV and camera I was recording in. MP4 (not MOV) ... The Zoom H1 was wearing a Eneloop rechargeable battery. (I have heard that for use in burners, is not indicated rechargeable battery, is that right?) Could you help me in what may be happening friend? Does my Zoom H1 came defective? Thank you.

Just my 2 cent's worth. we should ALWAYS record audio at 24 bit, not at 16 bits, especially if you're setting the rec level manually.. and we should always switch the LOCUT on (unless you're recording low rumbles and bass). 44.1 khz is fine, the human ear cant really hear much above 22khz anyway especially when you're recording mostly dialogue tracks. take this advice frm a sound engineer!
@ademus4
@ademus4 9 жыл бұрын
Azlan A. Hassan 44.1 kHz refers to sample rate, not the audio frequency
@azlanah
@azlanah 9 жыл бұрын
Adam Thornton the sampling rate is directly related to frequency response. The lower the sampling rate, the lower the quality of the recording. For example a 16kHz sampling rate recording means the recording is sampled at a max of 8k per channel (all frequencies after 8k will be cut off). So you wont' hear the fine highs/treble in a recording sampled at 16kHz because all the frequecies above 8kHz isnt captured.
@ademus4
@ademus4 9 жыл бұрын
Azlan A. Hassan I assume it would be per channel. The reason for having a sampling rate approximately double the largest desired frequency is to avoid aliasing.
@GammaE35
@GammaE35 8 жыл бұрын
+Azlan A. Hassan Do whatever works best for your own workflow. We wanted students to 44.1 16 bit because that was CD quality audio which is normally used in a radio journalism workflow. We didn't want the students to waste space on their data card using higher settings.

+Paul B Could it be that the card is already loaded into the recorder? Check the card slot (as shown in the video) and see if it's in there. It's a MicroSD card so it will be very tiny and easy to lose so be careful. This is why we told our students to never remove the card - we didn't want them losing it and asking us for replacements because we didn't have them.

An amendment to my above comment: Some DSLRs (like the Canon 5D Mark III) DO allow you to control audio levels, BUT it is still best to use an external audio recorder for something like a short film because it's easier to control. You also want to have a separate person control the recorder so the camera person is not distracted and can focus on making your shots look great.

***** Hmm... This actually made me confused a little bit. Yes I know, I am not one of your students, but if I were... At first I would be like "Hey, this is deadly! I can just remove and change the microSD cards, edit/delete the files through PC" and etc. and there it comes "DO NOT REMOVE THE SD CARD", "DO NOT DELETE FILES ON YOUR COMPUTER". Straight away a question "What happens if I do? Is there a bug in the firmware? If so, WHY are we using THIS microphone". What I am trying to say is people know SD and microSD cards, they what they do and how to use them. So don't make it too simple for the students, push a little bit, teach them a bit more: "Hey, you don't know what a microSD card is? It is memory card that you can remove from Zoom H1, stick it here, stick it there, edit wherever you want. How great is that!"

Thank you! There were a few reasons why our equipment managers and my supervisor wanted to not have them remove the SD card (one of them being to be sure they didn't lose them) - but it was such a long time ago I don't remember the specifics. As for the microphone, that directive came from our faculty advisors who were adamant that students use an external mic so they get the experience of doing so (and that particular mic was included in the video camera kits that were already assigned to them for the semester)

Can H1 record at the same time in two different audio tracks? Per example, one with, lets say -4dB and the other track with -12dB in order to avoid clipping?

Why would you not remove the SD card to transfer the footage? It's the exact same thing as plugging it into a laptop to transfer the footage. Also, my H1 didn't come with a power adapter, but my H4N did.

I heard most condenser mics need phantom power to operate,so how did you record with that? Does h1 supplies phantom power?

Tanvir  ‌ What is phantom power?
@tanvir335
@tanvir335 7 жыл бұрын
To charge this plate, the microphone needs power (unlike the dynamic microphone). Phantom power sends the correct power (+48V) to a condenser microphone via an XLR socket and cable. Plug in your condenser microphone, and switch on phantom power on the correct channel, and bingo- your microphone will spring to life.

Hi. I've just bought my zoom h1 and when i conect my microphone (rode videomic pro) i have to set the gain up to 60 or 70 in order to get the sound a -12dB. Is it normal to set the gain so high?

That's a good question. I hadn't experienced that problem myself but it's been a while since I used an H1.

@GammaE35
@GammaE35 10 жыл бұрын
It's a switch that automatically cuts out lower-end (bass) frequencies. If you want to leave it on to make your sound less bass-y and/or thumpy, go ahead. Again, these videos were meant for our students at the time who had strict workflow/curriculum requirements.

I don't see why not, but you would probably want to buy a separate mic to actually function as the boom mic and use the H1 just as a recorder/monitor.

I feel that the Zoom H1 while it's a very good recording device however for $110 USD it feels very cheap when holding it in your hand, the plastic housing seems like it will fall apart over time. For that much price this thing should be coated with rubberize for gripping and protection overall, and the top part should be aluminium or the whole part depends on pricing. People would happy to pay a bit more if it lasts longer, also the software layout of this device can be confusing and outdated, it should have joystick function to go to different options, fewer buttons as possible. This can easily be done with today current technology. I bought this device and returned it right away, this should be priced at $45 dollars max.
