Ray, thank you for your professional presentation. I am in the business called court reporting, testimony taken down by steno, then transcribing legal proceedings such as depositions, but now I have moved into ASR, automated speech recognition. As I can see with the special adapter we can have up to 6 Lavalier condenser mics XLR or using the VXLR adapters we can record six voices. The sound is impeccable and so easy to use a USB cable to dump the audio to the PC which has the voice-to-text technology. We would not use anything else and the H6 with 6 Lavalier mics is so light to transport.

@RayOrtega
@RayOrtega Жыл бұрын
There is a special cable that attenuates (lessens) the line level signal for mic inputs on cameras that don't have line-in or else the audio will be too loud www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/746645-REG/Sescom_LN2MIC_ZOOMH4N_LN2MIC_ZOOMH4N_Line_to.html/BI/5841/KBID/6710 I don't recall if the H6 has a pad built in but the first step might be to use any stereo(TRS) 1/8" to 1/8" cable that you have and test if with your recorder and camera. This will let you know if you need a special cable or not.

Nice review. While you can record every input to separate channels, you can also configure channels 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 to record two separate stereo files. *CASSETTE DIGITIZING USING AUTO RECORD* Another feature I've found really useful makes use of this. When I want to digitize old cassette tapes I hook the output of the (auto reverse) cassette deck to channels 1 & 2 and set it to be a stereo pair. Then I turn on the Auto Record feature which starts recording as soon as it gets a signal. Once it's set up (audio levels, etc.) I just pop in a cassette, rewind it, then hit play. When I notice the cassette isn't turning anymore, maybe hours later, I pop that cassette out and put in another. This gives me one file for each cassette. When I'm done I load the files onto my computer and open them up in Audition, trim the start, the end and the delay between side one and side two. (I may do some other sweetening too like adjust the left-right balance, and clean up any noise.) Easy-peasy.

Hi Ray, I have a Sennheiser 416 and a Zoom H4N. I found that when outside with the Sennheiser that in certain circumstances it did not deliver enough power to the microphone. I nearly always had to have it set to 10 or the highest level and even so the output was only going to about -12 dB instead of the -6 that I wanted. Do you think that the H6 will deliver more power so that I can use the 416 fully? Many thanks. You have produced a great video. Brian

Maybe no one is still posting to this video, but it seems the Zoom H6 will function as a mixer and preamp and you can record to your camera directly and maybe eliminate the need to do extensive audio work in post production, at least for some video work (e.g. you tube videos explaining stuff about stuff, as opposed to music recording).

For example if Im running four channels say three radio mic's and a onbroad shotgun and want to hear only one channel to make sure its sounding ok rather than just hear a mash of all channels at once? Sometimes in a hectic shoot you just got hear one channel at a time to determine just noise i.e from jackets hiding among the clean audio from others or concerntrate on just one speakers content at a time. Im considering this unit H6 or Tascam 70D. Im not sure if the Tascam can monitor individual channels either. Cheers :)

+Obi Kenobi thanks! I don't think you can monitor only one channel which is a bummer but it's a good question that you might want to check out the manual or ask Zoom. That is something I would want to do! You could mute the other channels as you check the one you need but probably can't switch it to a monitor only while recording.

@RayOrtega
@RayOrtega 6 жыл бұрын
Congrats. I tend to record without a low cut and then add on in post if needed but if you have a low rumble or the guests have heavy plosives then it's something to consider. 24bit/48 is more than enough and in fact if you end up compressing to 16bit for final delivery then you might want to consider 16bit if you don't also process with dithering of the final audio. But mostly I'd go with 24bit/48 if you have the room on the SD card.

You need to record in a relatively quiet area to avoid unwanted background noise and make sure you are setting your levels properly. After that, if your mic is decent, you should get some good audio. Make sure the microphone is close enough so that person can be heard without having to turn up the levels too much. See my video on setting levels kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZKclJZnjd94ras

Not exactly. That would be one of the downsides, it can't be used as an interface and a recorder at the same time. You could hack it by outputting the line out of the H6 to the computer and recording that mix as a backup or connect another recorder the same way to do the same thing. Other units like the MixPre are amazing for so many reasons but also because it can handle this dual function podhelp.me/mixpre3Zon (referral link). The new Rodecaster can also do this podhelp.me/rodecasterBH but can't do multichannel and the Zoom L12, which I reviewed, can also do this including multichannel podhelp.me/zoomL12BH

Hello Ray, thanks for the nice video! I wanted to ask for yoru advice: I’m planning to video record my string quartet while performing a few tunes and was thinking of using a matched pair of Rode M5 Condenser Microphones in ORTF stereo technique with a Zoom H6 recorder for the audio. My question is afterwards, where do I edit the files? Should I get a software like pro tools or Logic pro? Also is it better to record with the Zoom or use a mixer like Allen and Heath and record directly in pro tool? And for the video editing I should use a different software like Final Cut or similar? I hope you don’t mind me asking… but I wanted to start in the right way! Thanks!!

Hi Ray. Very good presentation! Need your advice. I sometimes record my digital drums live into my I phone. I use GO Mixer Pro from Roland but I m not happy with this device. The USB port is jiggling and sometimes gives no connection. My question 👉🏼Can this Zoom 6 been used as an Interface directly into the IPhone? That it also records internally is of course a beneficial. Grts from Belgium

HI, Bob, I can't say I've used the H6 with the iPhone. It does connect to a computer via USB but I'm not sure if it works the same on iOS. You'd need a USB to lightening adapter at a minimum or if you have an older phones, maybe a 1/8" cable would do but I haven't tried and I don't have the device, it was a review unit which means I only had it for 30 days. The other issue however is that if you use it as a USB interface, at least on a computer, then you can't record internally. The other method would be to record internally while also sending an analog feed to the iPhone via something like the iRig which I show here kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJqzkJ5raqt4i9U

I'm getting a lot of white noise when recording. Is there a setting within my Panasonic GH5 that I need to change in order to not have this? Am I doing something else wrong? Thanks Ray!

Never used the GH5 but if you run the input too high then you'll get noise on pretty much every camera. So try and increase the level from the H6 and lower the level in the GH5 and see if that helps.

Can we record audio from zoom while record video from smarphone? So we can get a video with audio quality that we take from zoom h5...

Joe Zoc yes. Great mic. I just had it to test and used it with the H6. Any mic will work with the Zoom.

Ray Ortega Yes, though the NTG-2 doesn't work so well with the Zoom H5. Apparently, without additional pre-amping.

Scot Becker hm that's surprising. I know with the H4n it's not as friendly because of the not so great preamps but the H5 improved significantly on their preamps and it should work much better. That said, the NTG2 needs lots of gain. The NTG3 is much better overall but doesn't have battery power. The new NTG4 and NTG4+ look awesome podhelp.me/ntg4plusBH (referral link). Also did you have your avatar painted by that website, Paint my Head or something like that? Looks like that, he or she never did mine sadly;(

So, if I plug the line out conector of the h6 onto my DSLR, and then I record several video files with my DSLR... Then each of those files will have their sound already ATTACHED to the video inside the DSLR? Or maybe I will have to export both the video file from the DSLR and the track/tracks that get recorded in the h6 separately? I mean, that late thing would be a pain in the ass because I would have to syncronize them.

Thank you for this video. So helpful. I am new to video,recording and have purchased the zoom h6 plus 2 rode wireless mics. Do I need to be recording into the dslr as well as the H6? Also - it comes with a 2gb memory card - what do you advise is the most efficient size of memory card. You mention 64gb. Thanks again.
