Zoom H6essential 6-Track 32-Bit Float Portable Audio Recorder – Black

The Zoom H6essential 6-Track 32-Bit Float Portable Audio Recorder is a flagship handheld audio recorder designed for filmmakers, podcasters, musicians, and professional content creators. With 32-bit float recording, the H6essential captures distortion-free audio with a huge dynamic range, eliminating the need to manually adjust gain levels during recording. This makes it ideal for unpredictable recording environments such as interviews, live events, and field recording. Equipped with removable X/Y stereo microphones and four XLR/TRS combo inputs, the recorder supports up to six simultaneous input tracks.

The included microphones can handle sound pressure levels up to 135 dB SPL, making it suitable for loud environments like concerts or outdoor shoots. The H6essential features ultra-clean preamps with +48V phantom power, enabling use with professional condenser microphones. A 2-inch full-color display and built-in mixer allow real-time waveform monitoring and easy control of individual tracks. It also functions as a 6-in / 2-out USB-C audio interface, allowing simultaneous recording to microSD while streaming audio to a computer or mobile device.
