Zoom H6essential 6-Track 32-bit Float Audio Recorder
Key Features:
Presented as Zoom's flagship handheld recorder, the H6essential Portable Recorder offers six tracks of pristine, distortion-free audio without the need to set levels. With 32-bit float recording & hot-swappable X/Y mics that can handle 135 dB with ease, the H6essential offers a versatile pain-free audio solution.
The four XLR-1/4" combo inputs feature low-noise & high-quality Zoom mic preamps & sport +48V phantom power for driving professional condenser mics. An onboard mixer is easy to use with the bright 2" colour display to adjust individual tracks & directly view waveforms in real time.
The H6essential can utilize its USB-C port not only for power but also to stream up to two channels of audio to computers & smart devices, acting as a 6-in / 2-out interface. Furthermore, the recorder is tripod mountable, allowing it to be conveniently used in a fixed location or atop a camera via an adapter for field recording duties.
Special Features:
More Dynamic Range
With 32-bit float & dual AD converters the H6essential captures huge dynamic range. This gives creators the ability to record perfect audio, clip-free every time.
Ultraclean Preamps

Audio Interface Capability
Send audio via USB-C in 32-bit float while simultaneously recording to an SD card. When connected to a Windows, Mac, iOS, or Android device using the USB-C Port, the H6essential can be used as a 6-in / 2-out audio interface.
