[@inocenciotensygarcia1012]

[@Nomadboatbuilding]

Have you played with channeling directly to the camera to avoid syncing in post?

[@karyntroyguthrie3587]

Awesome job, perfect place to get me started recording!

[@phillip2446]

just go the h5. great video. i updated the software to 2.1. for record options, i do not have mp3, just the wave formats. it did not have mp3 options before i updated the firmware either.

[@mackkuhr]

GREAT tutorial! Would you recommend under Record Mode to have it set at stereo file when doing voiceovers rather than multi file since I can get 96 kHz instead of 48 kHz like you explained. Thank you for your insight!

[@juStb4u]

48 is fine and you'll want to mix down to mono in post processing anyway for VO which you already know ;)

[@mortajurkenaite5436]

Hello, sorry I wanted to ask I am classical musician, and I want to record for audition, and I don't know which I have to choose stereo or multi. Maybe can explain me?

[@Jime0326]

This is a very helpful video. Thank you.

[@JaimeHuffman]

I love my h5 but the "shock mounts" for the XY capsule that comes with it are not reliable.

[@rickraub5448]

Can you tell me about your camera cage and connectors that your using in this video? Thanks.

[@richardsacher2182]

..and one more question...Can you record in Stereo with the XLR mics? I am sometimes asked by an agent to send them an mp3 file rather than a wav. Since you can't record an mp3 in multi mode, is it safe to recored an mp3 in stereo with an XLR mic? I have a CAD E 100S. Thanks, agian.

[@richardsacher2182]

Hi, Thank you for this. On my Zoom H5, both the 1 and 2 lights for XLR come on simultaneously and go off the same way. I am unable to just keep one or the other on alone. Is this something perhaps that is just on a newer model of the H5? In all the videos I’m watching, they are generally on one at a time, if you only have one mic plugged in to the XLR jack.

[@Esoterixxx]

So red circle button, then stop button? (Black square button)

[@d_walsh]

So I've begun to record a few demos pieces. But on playback I hear a loud beep at beginning. How do I stop that from appearing? Not sure where to go in menu to adjust that record playback annoyance. Thanks

[@Christopher-iq1fm]

can zoom h5 do MTR mode like zoom h4n?

[@DesignedByMaejor]

does anyone know if you can power the H5 thru the DC usb instead of using batteries??

[@camranh_royal]

Yes you can use the USB connector to juice it up

[@davidlafleche1142]

Is it possible to transfer a recording from Zoom H5 to Mac Final Cut Pro?

[@mvmitsme3]

Hey there , When I connect my Sennheiser E945 microphone to my H5 the sound just comes out of Left side of the speaker. So can you just let me know what settings should I do to get volume from both side.

[@twiglet2214]

Add another mic to get stereo - you are only using 1 channel ( xlr input ) with 1 mic hence only i speaker outputs sound.

[@Darryl_xtx]

Can I just get one video without fluff

[@gear7airsoft974]

Yes, this one. It could’ve been organized better but he’s informative the whole time
