The track pairing and unpairing (long pressing the two track buttons) is important because if that accidentally gets activated, there's nothing in the menu indicating how to unpair them. I read it in the manual a year ago, but couldn't figure out how to unpair them off the top of my head.
Thank you! I have found that the Monitoring Mix is so useful. It helps to enhance the sound quality in both play back and recording. Normally the ideal level would be set at about 6.5dBm and it will do the trick. Otherwise, I might be missing out something from your review.
Thank you so much for this video! A bit ironic how horrible the sound of a video about a sound recorder of this level is but still...great video! I found exactly what I was looking for :)
Great video! Very thorough and informative. I’ve been looking at a few different pieces of equipment to add to my collection and I’m thinking this will be the one I go with. Thank you for the help.
Amazing video im planning to do some asmr food video which settings i need to use to get a nice sounds like the 3 dio?? If u have any tips or advices it would be great
Thanks for this. Very thorough guide. I'm wondering if you can keep the AA batteries in even while plugged into a power bank, and if the device can automatically draw power from the batteries if the usb cable gets accidentally detached from the power bank, as I imagine could happen especially when you're mobile.
This is a FANTASTIC video - thanks. I’m a podcaster looking to record interviews in the field. And I plan to record direct to the SD card inside the H6 (i.e. I won’t have access to my computer while recording). Each interview will feature several interviewees. And each interviewee will have their own dynamic microphone - and will be recorded on their own unique channel on the SD card. Once recording is done - and I’m uploading the recorded audio from the SD card to GarageBand, will each interviewee’s channel appear as a separate audio file on the SD card? If so, do I simply create a separate track in GarageBand for each interviewee - then drag that interviewee’s SD card audio file into their unique GarageBand track?
Thank you very much I am still confused about a few things. First the folder naming. How do you use thses folders? And the second question is can you record a synthesizer like a XP-50 Roland directly via guitar jacks?
Can’t speak to the folders as I don’t use them. I just record, export my files, and then format the card. Easiest way I’ve found to manage files And yes, the 1/4” inputs are great for instruments
Do you have a recommendation for a SDXC 64 or 128GB SD Card? What are you using and what would you recommend knowing what you know now? Great Video Thanks !!
@@johnstone495 Zoom have a list on their website. I'm using a Transcend Premium 32GB SDHC 90MB/s U1/C10 card (TS32GSDU1) with no problems. I've also used an older Transcend 16GB C10 (TS16GSDHC10) similarly with no issues. HTH
This video is invaluable! Just ordered my zoom h6, haven't even received it yet but eager to learn how all this recording stuff works. Around the 20 min mark in this video you talk about headphones (specifically the splitter vs the headphone amp) when multiple tracks are being recorded and everyone has headphones...if the microphone itself (mine will be ATR2100x but haven't received it yet) has headphone jack and we are each using same mic/headphone setup, can each person just plug his headphones into his mic? I really just want to know if I need to order a headphone splitter. Thanks in advance!!!
If you're recording onto the Zoom, you'll want to monitor the audio from the Zoom as well, so you'd plug the headphones into the Zoom H6. If you decide to use the ATR-2100 on your desktop or mobile device, then you'd plug the headphones into the ATR's headphone jack. Good luck!
Hello, I am a zoom meeting host - I will have up to two presenters 10 to 15 in room attendees and approx 15 people joining on zoom. We are currently using a single mic that is for whole room but it's not optimum and want to integrate 2 wireless lavalier mics and 2 stationary mics on either side of the room to pick everyone up clearly (some are very sofft spoken) will the H6 work with ZOOM ? Is this the best way? I have done rltons of searching and this seems like it will work, but need to know before purchasing
Thanks for the video. I'm trying to connect the Ronalds CS-10EM binaural headphones. I placed the red 3.5 mm minijakc on the Y connector (2 normal output jacks) to record each channel separately and put the black on the headphones. In this way, I hear a background noise that increases when I increase the gain. Phantom is connected and configured with 12 V because they are condenser microphones. I do not know how to eliminate this noise. I need to record with these headphones. Any information will be useful. Thank you.
Thanks for watching - it can, technically, but you must be careful with adapters for the iPhone - the way Apple has wired the 3 rings of a 3.5mm TRRS cable is unique. You may need to get a few different adapters and run some tests. I haven't used anything other than a lavalier mic as an input into an iPhone/iPad
U ar a teacher man I just have a question I didn't understand about the bateries and wire like usb which when you plugged in Do I have to pull bateries out when I'm using usb charger ? How can I charge my betteries or i buy new one's everytime? Just that one if you can make more clearer because I'm forigner didn't understood that thank you man that really helpfull
Hello! I'd recommend not leaving batteries in your device for a long time, mine have leaked and I've been using usb charger ever since (without the batteries). The same reason I don't like rechargeable batteries.
Good information. I used same way microphone as you show your in this your tutorial. But I want to know that how to connect though zoom h 6 other connect to DSLR mic ? Actually I want to record live event through zoon and DSLR camera .plz guide me
Great video! Thank you so much. Question: I recorded the other night and pushed record but during the recording the numbers stopped reading so I figured we ran out of space. When I got home, I couldnt find the recording in any of the files. What do you think happened? I did not press the stop button which you showed clearly moves them to a new file every time you record and stop. What happened to my recording since I didn't press stop but I definitely saw the numbers moving during our session? Thanks for taking the time to answer me.
Did you format the SD card BEFORE starting to record? That could be part of the issue. Brand new SD cards need to be formatted first so that it matches the H6's file structure
For the 1/8" jack on the X/Y mic on top of the recorder: If i wanted to play music on that with my phone, could i still use the X/Y mic to record a group of people's voices at a table while silumtaneously recording a track of that music i played? Or would that top mic only be able to play/interface the music and i'd need a separate omni/directional mic to record the people at the table? Using this for a D&D podcast :) Thank you
Question...everyone and their brother says record in wav due to the higher quality, but ultimately I mix it down to mp3 to export so do I really need to record in wav if the end game is a mp3? Or does the quality take a hit going from mp3 to mp3 vs wav to mp3?
An MP3 file is a compressed file, and some data gets lost in the compression. If you make an MP3 of an MP3, then you're making a compressed file of an already compressed file. It'll sound worse. Always record in WAV, which is a lossless format. You should always start with as pristine audio as possible.
In addition to what Shawn said, if you ever need to clean up your audio, it's best to have the original WAV recording, as this will allow you more flexibility.
SKYES Audio yea it’s a lot to take in as a beginner. I have 7 episodes recorded and suddenly my last 3 are lower than the others to the end listener. My final MP3 mix of all them are identical sound and volume but for whatever reason they sound different on iTunes and such.
Im new to podcasting so please excuse the uninformed question. Why use a Zoom H6 with SD card? Cant you use a 4 channel audio interface directly to your computer?
Depends on what your needs are. Each has their pros and cons. Using the Zoom H6, you get the portability of having an interface to work remotely, and can podcast on the go if needed. The only downside of this is compared to a home studio audio interface, you dont have any output channels if you would want to, for example, connect studio monitors or speakers. The Zoom H6 might also be a better choice for on-the-go videographers who want to record video while also capturing good audio using XLR mics, which wouldn't be possible if you only had a home studio audio interface. So in the end, it really depends on what your needs are.
Personally, always an interface. I use a MOTU Traveler, but the Focusrites are incredible pieces of gear too. However, for newbies, I almost never mention an audio interface - it is more hassle than it is worth if the podcaster does not already understand audio and digital recording.
Man...THIS was a review! More in depth examples. Question, can the Zoom H6 be used to record conversations via connecting audio cords into cell phones? Thanks in advance.
Nice info! I just have one question, if I'm recording only using the H6 instead of it as an interface while logic is open, would I be having one separate file for each mic? Because I noticed that when you were in the USB option you chose "Multi Track"
Is red button is smooth as compare to other buttons. I'm asking because, When you press other buttons, It sounds little bit but red button don't. I want to confirm, is there any problem with mine or is it same for all.
@@thepodcastmasters ended up going with Rode Procaster and MKG Condensor Mic with Adobe Audition. Flawless so far updated my phone voicemail greeting super professional!
Thanks for the great video! Question please: Do you find any need to use a Triton Fethead or Cloudlifter device to help amplify the signal while keeping the gain dial lower to help avoid any unwanted background hiss/humming noise from the H6 while recording? Some users say the preamps on the H6 are noisy and will use a Fethead or Cloudlifter for a cleaner louder signal. Just curious what you think about this. From my own experience from having the Zoom H6 for a short time, I notice a background humming noise if I crank up the gain dial past 6. I try not to go past 7 if possible.
I've only had to use a preamp when using mics like the SM7B that have a lower gain. I don't notice too much noise from the H6 in general, but when I record I'm normally using SM58s or ATR-2100s and they are louder than the 7B
HI, do you have any recommendations for the following... I connect my phone with a cable via the XY-mic's mic-in in order to record a caller to the podcast. This introduces radio interference noice to the recording. Approx. 20-30 seconds after the phone call ends, the radio interference noice stops. This radio interference is not hearable when using the phone on a regular basis (not podcasting). I really like this low weight setup and do not want to introcure a mixer. Do you have any suggestions on how to overcome this issue without using a mixer?
I have my computer’s audio and my RODECaster audio going into the Knob, and then out into my speakers. Very nice and easy to control/switch back and forth
Looks like you would just take the main outs from the mixer into the H6. You'd need a female XLR to balanced 1/4" cable. You MUST use the line style of input on the h6, not the XLR-style. The mixer also says it comes with an Apple lightning connector, do you know if the mixer will record to a DAW?

Best explanation to get started, thanks for your time making this video.
You saved my bacon. My old zoom died three days before a recording session and the time to learn it all was not there……. Thank you.
I’ve been using my H6 for a couple of years, and still learned a few cool things. Great job on information!
That’s great to hear thank you!
Thank you. I will rewatch again to be comfortable.
THANK YOU! So far, one of the most informative videos on the H6 I've seen...Really appreciate you taking the time to do this. Great job!!
Great video - best overview of the device I have seen. Thankyou.
The track pairing and unpairing (long pressing the two track buttons) is important because if that accidentally gets activated, there's nothing in the menu indicating how to unpair them. I read it in the manual a year ago, but couldn't figure out how to unpair them off the top of my head.
Very very useful. Thank you!

Brilliant. Best video to know about zoomH6; simple and clear.
Can we use a splitter in 4 way out headphone behringer ha 400 etc ..so that i can have 6 outputs...via XY mod in H6??
Super well done. I have one question. Is there a way to delete one file without formating the card and losing all of the files?
Not that I know of, at least on the H6 itself. I think there is a file management in settings where you can do that directly on the h6. Sorry!
Great tutorial.
Great video, very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
This man just saved my college project.
Haha happy to have helped!
Great video, thanks!! Love the h6
thank you!
Great video. Thank you. Can you play back two channels on the H6 and record two more?
I'm not sure, I've never attempted that on the H6 as stand-alone. If you're using it as an interface with your DAW, you certainly can.
Thanks! Solid tutorial. Would you recommend using its own compressor or limiter for podcasting?
Incredibly helpful! Thank you so much for this. Awesome job!

Good question, I have the same one
Does it ever feel too bulky/clunky?

The mixer also says it comes with an Apple lightning connector, do you know if the mixer will record to a DAW?
Awesome Video Thank you I just purchased my H6 today and im excited to get some good quality audio in my videos with this thing
Enjoy! Love the H6
Are you able to label your folders instead of having the default Folder 01
I believe so, but haven't looked into this personally - since we copy over all of our files after each recording session
I haven’t seen that as an option.
I enjoy it
