About Zoom H6essential

Experience the unparalleled power and versatility of the H6essential 6-Track 32-Bit Float Handy Recorder, our flagship handheld device designed for audio perfection. This robust recording powerhouse offers six tracks of 32-bit float recording, capturing a vast dynamic range with dual AD converters for clip-free, flawless audio every time.

The H6essential is the first in the Essential Series to offer Accessibility for the visually impaired and blind. Navigate the menu with ease using audible descriptions available in seven languages - English, Spanish, French, Japanese, German, Italian, and Chinese - through the built-in speaker or headphones.

The H6essential features four XLR/TRS combo inputs with ultra-clean Zoom preamps, and the included X/Y microphones can capture sound levels up to a thunderous 135 dB SPL, equivalent to a jet taking off. The 3.0 capsule system has been upgraded to support 32-bit float, providing creators with a wider range of microphone options for their recordings.

When the X/Y microphone isn't required, simply detach the capsule and use the included cap for a low-profile setup. The H6essential also offers the convenience of a USB-C port for connecting to PC, Mac, iOS, and Android devices. This allows you to use the H6essential as a 32-bit float interface while simultaneously recording all six tracks to an SD card.

Whether you're a musician, filmmaker, or podcaster, the H6essential is an invaluable tool. Musicians can mic up to four instruments using the XLR inputs and use the X/Y microphones to capture the full ensemble in stunning stereo. Filmmakers can rely on 32-bit float recording for confidence with every take, and podcasters will appreciate the four XLR inputs, with the option to connect the optional EXH-6e capsule for two additional XLR inputs.

The H6essential also features a waveform display for visual monitoring of your audio as it records. For full control of your mix, simply hit the 'Mixer' button to quickly adjust your levels. Pair the H6essential with your iOS device using the BTA-1 Bluetooth Adapter to remotely hit record, adjust your mix, view your waveforms, and change settings. The BTA-1 Bluetooth Adapter also allows for pairing with Bluetooth timecode devices for audio and video sync.

The H6essential boasts quieter controls for silent operation, an improved onboard speaker for quick reference, and the necessary outputs for connecting to a camera and monitoring your audio. The new full-color LCD screen offers higher visibility, providing a more vivid view as you record and navigate the menu. Experience the H6essential - the essential tool for creators.
