While the original gray H6 is bundled with two mic capsules and premium accessories, the Zoom H6 All Black portable handheld recorder features a sleek black finish and a single mic capsule, making ideal for bands, multi-instrumentalists, and podcasters who don\u2019t immediately need the extras. With its X\/Y stereo microphone capsule, six versatile mic\/line inputs, and up to 6-track recording, the H6 All Black is both user-friendly and easily expandable.<\/p>\n
Like other H-Series Handy recorders such as the H4n Pro and H5, you can hold it in your hand, attach it to a mic stand or tripod, or mount it to a camera (shoe mount available separately); the H6 All Black packs an impressive array of features into a rugged, rubberized body that\u2019s more than ready to meet the varied demands of musicians, content creators, videographers, and sound designers.From the intuitive, tactile controls to the plentiful battery life and powerful audio processing functions, the H6 All Black is well equipped for producing pristine audio for complete musical arrangements, independent films, and panel podcasts. It can supply phantom or plug-in power for condenser mics, or accept direct connections from synths, keyboards, drum machines, or +4 dB line-level mixers. No matter the source, selectable auto-recording and pre-recording ensure that you\u2019ll never miss the start of a take, and stereo safety track recording provides duplicate tracks at a lower level to avoid distortion.<\/p>\n

\nWhereas the original H6 sports a gray finish, two interchangeable stereo mic capsules, and premium accessories\u2014a protective case, a foam windscreen, and a USB cable, the H6 All Black 2020 Version is presented in a sleek, solid black finish and includes a single stereo mic capsule. Both versions include four AA batteries for powering the H6 on the go.
\nFast, User-Friendly Operability<\/strong>
\nThe H6 All Black\u2019s front panel is ergonomically arranged with its most essential and commonly used controls\u2014transport buttons for record, play\/pause, stop, back, and forward operations, individual record-arm buttons that double as mute switches during playback, large gain knobs, and pad switches. For added safety, a hold switch disables all front-panel buttons to prevent accidental operation during recording.
\nDay or night, view vital information such as audio levels, recording time, battery status, and more on the 2\u2033 full-color LCD, which happens to be backlit and angled for maximum visibility.<\/p>\n
\nEach H6 input has its own dedicated gain control knob. There\u2019s no track selection or button pressing required to optimize your recording levels; just turn the dials (clearly labeled from 0 to 10) anytime you need to adjust the gain. If your XLR-1\/4\u2033 input sources are so loud that you need even less gain than the preamps provide at the \u201c0\u201d setting, use four front-panel pad switches to attenuate the combo inputs by 20 dB.
\nX\/Y Stereo Microphone Capsule<\/strong>
\nLeave your external mics at home and travel light; the H6 All Black includes a stereo microphone capsule (the original H6 includes two interchangeable capsules). With nothing more than the H6, you\u2019re set to record a variety of sources, even ear-rattling ones up to 136 dB!
\nThe matching black X\/Y capsule provides clear, phase-accurate capture in two different X\/Y positions\u201490\u00b0 for a tight stereo image or 120\u00b0 for a wider perspective. Just twist the capsules to their premarked positions to switch between the two configurations.<\/p>\n
\nThe Zoom mic capsule input on the H6 All Black accommodates Zoom\u2019s line of separately available interchangeable capsules, which can be swapped out as easily as the lenses of a camera. With shock-mounted X\/Y, Mid-Side, and mono or stereo shotgun mic capsules to choose from, you can be ready to record music, dialog, or sound effects without carting an external microphone setup. Opt for the EXH-6 combo input capsule to accept two additional mic\/line signals via XLR-1\/4\u2033 jacks.
\nSix Channels of Microphone\/Line Inputs<\/strong>
\nEquipped with four XLR-1\/4\u2033 combo inputs and a 3.5mm stereo mini-jack input (on the X\/Y capsule), the H6 All Black can accommodate condenser microphones, +4 dB balanced line-level sources, or signals from unbalanced instruments with active electronics. Turn on 12, 24, or 48 VDC phantom power to the XLR jacks, or 2.5V plug-in power to the mini jack. Whether you plan on recording studio condenser mics, feeds from wireless receivers, or a lavalier and shotgun mic combo for an interview, the H6 All Black\u2019s preamps are ready to deliver low-noise (-120 dB EIN) performance.
\nRecord All Channels Live or Overdub Layers<\/strong>
\nThe H6 All Black boasts 6-channel recording at up to 24-bit \/ 96 kHz resolution. Record all channels simultaneously or utilize the overdubbing function to add layers of instruments after an initial recording. Adjust levels and pans for your tracks, then use the internal mixdown function to blend six tracks down to a stereo file.
\nSD Card Recording and Audio Interface Functionality
\nMaximize portability by recording directly to an SD card (up to 2GB capacity), SDHC card (up to 32GB capacity), or SDXC card (up to 128GB capacity). A 2GB card will yield over 3 hours of 16-bit \/ 44.1 kHz stereo recording time using the BWF-compliant WAV format for uncompressed audio quality and industry-standard file compatibility. Note that media cards are available separately, and larger capacity cards will increase startup times.
\nAlternatively, use the H6 All Black as a 6-in \/ 2-out USB 2.0 audio interface at up to 24-bit \/ 96 kHz. For audio interface operation with an iPad (Apple Camera Connection Kit required and available separately), select USB stereo mode, which offers two channels in and out at up to 16-bit \/ 48 kHz.<\/p>\n
\nThe H6 All Black boasts 3.5mm line and headphone mini-jack outputs for simultaneously feeding your camera\/DSLR and a pair of headphones. Independently adjust the headphone volume via the side-panel volume control. For quick playback reference, a built-in monophonic speaker is also provided.
\nPowered via AA Batteries or AC Adapter<\/strong>
\nPower the H6 All Black via four included AA batteries, or plug it into a wall outlet with an AD-17 AC adapter (available separately). Alkaline batteries can keep the H6 running for over 20 hours of continuous 16-bit \/ 44.1 kHz recording using the X\/Y mic capsule, or for over 9 hours of nonstop 24-bit \/ 96 kHz recording using the X\/Y mic and the four XLR-1\/4\u2033 inputs. When using the H6 All Black in the stereo USB audio interface mode, USB bus powering is possible.
\nRugged and Portable, Handheld or Mounted<\/strong>
\nThe durable, ergonomic body lends itself naturally to handheld use. Should you need to mount it on a mic stand or tripod, a threaded hole on the back of the H6 All Black obviates the need for stand adapters. Obtain a hot shoe adapter (available separately) to attach the H6 All Black directly to a DSLR.
\nSignal Processing Adds Sonic Polish<\/strong>
\nThe H6 All Black\u2019s onboard effects allow you to add polish to your recordings. Compression and limiting compensate for fluctuations in input level, while a low-cut filter helps eliminate wind noise, blowing, and other kinds of low-frequency rumble. Normalize files for maximum gain, split them into smaller chunks, and even insert up to 99 marks per recording.
\nThere\u2019s an onboard metronome and tuner, and you can loop playback and adjust pitch and speed independently, making the H6 All Black an ideal tool for phrase training.<\/p>\n
\nThe H6 All Black offers selectable recording functions designed to prevent you from accidentally missing the start of a performance. By keeping the previous two seconds (one second at 96 kHz) of audio whenever you press the record button, the pre-record option ensures that you\u2019ll never cut off the beginning of a great take. Auto-record can automatically start recording when a user-set sound level is detected, making it great for voice-activated recording.
\nBackup record enables the H6 All Black to automatically record a duplicate of the L\/R input with 12 dB less input gain. Even if your original track is distorted, chances are the backup version will be fine!<\/p>\n
\nUse the RCH-6 remote (available separately in the APH-6 accessory pack) to control the transport, arm tracks, and adjust volume at a distance while eliminating handling noise.
\nIncludes Audio Software<\/strong>
\nThe H6 All Black comes with free download licenses for Steinberg\u2019s Cubase LE music production software and WaveLab LE audio editing software, representing a complete audio production toolkit.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
