Exactly what I was needing
By: Avey
Submitted: 5/24/2023
Product Review
This thing is quite a machine, I just needed something to take out in the field to record samples, this thing does that spectacularly and more. The XLR combo inputs give me more than enough flexibility to include multiple sources via microphones or instruments should I so desire. The included capsule microphone sounds pretty great to me, though this is my first decent handheld recording device so your mileage may vary. Battery lasts an exceptional amount of time, overdub feature is cool and useful, have found many uses for it in and out of the home studio.

I’m not the most technically minded when it comes to recording, but I bought the Zoom H6 to have better recording quality when I make my YouTube videos for classical guitar. Not only has the standard unit surpass my expectations, but the ability to use external mics is great when I decide I need to upgrade!

Versatile audio recorder/interface
By: Stephen L
Submitted: 10/25/2021
Product Review
This is probably the best portable audio recorder/interface you can get. It has plenty of inputs (four mono 1/4 inch and one stereo 1/8 inch) along with a headphone jack for monitoring and a line out jack. It also has a handy angled color display that displays the levels in a intuitive manner. The only trade off of getting the new all black version is that it doesn't come along with the additional modules and case of the older silver/black version.

When I first received Zoom H6, and started to use it, it was very quiet simple to use. It came with the wide range mic which I enjoy using and picks up sound very well. I use it to record my guitar playing and it works really well for what I do. I have seen others use it for podcast and they say it's become the recorder of choice. Anyone looking for a great recorder this is the one to get in my opinion. There are a lot of accessories for it and can hook up a lot of mics, a pa, audio interface, just a bunch of different things can be done with this. I definitely do enjoy using this piece of equipment for what I do and I know others would enjoy it as I have.

Incredible H6 by Zoom

I mainly purchased this H6 to make my entry into the already crowded field of professional Voiceover so I knew it would behoove me to get the finest audio device I could get my hands on just to compete. Walla!!
Simply put, the Zoom H6 all-black takes audio to a whole other level whether voiceover, studio recording or field recorder fr a motion picture or documentary. Truly just what I was looking for, thanks to American Musical Supply!

This is a great addition to my studio I needed a smaller piece of gear to do podcast and unable me to be mobile instead of taking my Apollo twin and other gear I can know just take a lap top and my zoom h6 record it into my pro tools and that’s a plus the only negative thing is it doesn’t come with a usb plug to transfer your files to your daw and you have to get a SD card also which is an extra expense . You can buy am older version and it comes with the usb plug for less

Product Review
I initially wanted the Zoom H6 for field recording & sound design. Which this unit does and does excellently. I quickly realized that not only could I do that, but I could attach it to my DSLR camera, and have high quality audio recorded directly to my camera as well as recording a back up on the H6 as a back up. I can record a podcast with me and 4+ other guests/hosts ANYWHERE, meet up at a coffee shop? No problem, it eliminated the need for me to bring my computer and huge audio interface, mouse keyboard etc.. if I want to record away from home/studio. Also I can use this to capture high quality audio for YouTube, record lyrics/acoustic instruments/sfx into my sampler, record a lyricist/vocalist at a remote location, the posibilites are infinite. The quality is great, it is user friendly, powerful, looks nice, not too big not too small, attaches to tripod both stationary and handheld/desk top...it goes wherever I go.. I definitely recommend the Zoom H6, pick yours up today..!!

Zoom H6 Black for Youtube Audio
By: Brandon
Submitted: 4/21/2020
Product Review
I use the Zoom H6 for a YouTube fitness channel. The built in mic is excellent and sound just as good as a headset mic and it picks up voices perfectly even with music playing. I use channel 1 and 2 for line in audio from an iPhone and/or other musical devices. To do this I flip the pad switch and the audio is perfect. Initially I used a balanced 3.5mm to XLR cable and I noticed on some songs with high pitched audio it was as if there was a sound filter. I changed to a 3.5mm splitter cable and used inputs 1&2 in stereo mode and that doesn't happen on those specific songs any longer. Also audio streaming quality sounds good in 1080p or 4k streams especially at higher bit rates. When the system is hooked to my Mac or PC via USB it can be powered via the laptop and also act as a sound card. The sound stays in sync with 4K and 1080P video 100% of the time. Overall the Zoom H6 Black has exceeded my expectations.

The Zoom H6 has been my go to every time. Initially I had a Zoom F4 but found that was too bulky to fit my needs of 25% run and gun 75% static shots. I coupled my Zoom H6 with a threaded pistol grip which has turned this beast into the ultimate field recorder. For those that like to capture high quality ambient sound of busy inner cities the xy steep capsule is a game changer. Lastly for interviews and YouTube videos I found that the deity v.lav mics work perfectly with the Zoom H6. (This thing can supply 48V phantom power to all inputs. Buy rechargeable batteries and turn the brightness of the on screen display down when indoors to conserve power)

Amazing Purchase
By: Jimmy Zamora

Product Review
I purchased the Zoom H6 a few weeks and it's been so great that I keep it with me daily. I mostly purchased it to record found sound for samples, with the added benefit that it could also be a USB interface when needed.
The sound quality is amazing and the included microphones work much better than expected. Because of the supplied hard case carries it all securely I feel comfortable keeping it in my backpack all of the time and I have been able to grab a ton of good samples.
I've also been playing with recording my guitars and synths on it and it, again, sounded far better than expected. I suppose you could distill this review to: it sounds great and you are going to want to have it with you at all times.
The phantom power over the four inputs is pretty great as well, and the supplied mic with its line-in has helped make this into a Swiss Army knife of recording for me, especially coupled with the 1010 Black Box sampler. I haven't had to replace the batteries yet so it seems like they hold a charge well.
Overall it has been a great purchase and really helped me acquire new sounds, record more traditionally, it feeds my sampler, is obviously portable, and keeps me able to work out ideas wherever I am.

The Zoom HS 6 is a great piece of gear for Radio production. I originally purchased the HS6 in order to do radio interviews for my radio show. Once I received the HS 6 and explored the other features I was pleasantly surprised about the mic pre quality and portability for field work.
Previously I figured I would just use my audio interface connected to my computer... once I had the H6 in my hands I realized the mobility was an incredible option that I didn’t have with my existing setup!

Top End Recording
By: Nicholas Neagle
Submitted: 11/7/2019
Product Review
I have not found a device more amazing. This thing does it all and if you read through the instructions, some online videos on using it, and play around, it is amazing what you can do. The settings allow a wide variety of types of recording, from high quality WAV files to decent mp3 files. The mics that come with the unit are great and work inside and out. The settings you can use are enough to do most things people want. The ports for external mics make it even more powerful and I am just getting started on using it for that type of input. The display is also very helpful and gives you a lot of information as you are recording. It helps make adjustments on the fly and is great so far. I would certainly recommend this to anyone willing to work with the top end. Even if you don't need all the functions yet, it helps to have them to work towards in your work.

A lot of the time getting a sample isn’t about preparation but being in the right spot at the right time. The ease of turning on and beginning recording without having to do menu diving or worrying about recording over something is one of my favorite things about this recorder. If I hear something I want I can turn on and be ready as simple as that... and the sound quality is one of the industries best.

The H6 was the Star of the Show!

I freelance as an Boom Operator for Indie Films. I was beating between the F8 and the H6. Because of affordability, the H6 was the winner. This device enables to not only "look the part" but also capture great audio. Typically, I run (2) lavaliers and (2) room mics. The (4) inputs make my process easy. It would be great it could sync to slate like its counterpart but that's not a deal breaker. The attachable stereo mics are great for capturing room noise in both film and live sound environments. I'd recommend this product to anyone who wants to save a little but gain alot!

The Zoom H6 is ready out of the box to start recording. I'm a cautious when it comes to devices that combine the functions of several into one package. Not so with this. As a stand alone mixer and recorder it is perfect for on location interviews and podcast production. The screen, while small, is big enough to use the menus for functions and then monitor the tracks when recording. The computer interface seems stable and works ok in Windows with the right drivers. The option for stereo or multi channel is awesome.
This is the core of my podcast gear and I'm confident it will be so for a long time.

God made this recorder. I don't know what else to really say. To be able to record at the level of 96khz/24-bit is insane. The clarity and ease of use makes an amateur such as myself out to be something I am not as of yet, a professional. LOL the sound is superb. It is actually a mini-studio. Up to 6 tracks recording and the gains are knobs instead of on screen so you can quickly rectify any peaks and lows. I can't really imagine what is next from Zoom. There is always something but this is all you will ever need. Anything else is just getting something because it is new or whatever.

Lots of H4n features missing, very disappointed!!
By: Movieman53
Submitted: 4/11/2014
14 people found this review helpful.
Your general opinion of this product.
There are 10 features of the H4n that are missing on the H6. About 95% of the overdubbing functionality in the old H4n recorder is no longer present in the H6. There is no longer the ability to rename or delete recorded files or to assign any recorded track to any available track for playback. If you are a musician looking to use the H6 as a small home recording studio, and need overdubbing that allows you to start from any point within a recording, you will probably want to pass on buyinng the Zoom H6. I am trying to save others like me from making the same mistake and purchasing a product that can't do what you need it to do.
Easier to use than H4n, but still too may things buried in menus. The track volume dials are much easier than the rocker switch method on the H4n.
Add back in the ability to overdub from any point within a song, the ability to rename and delete recorded track files, the ability to assign any recorded track to any available track for playback, the ability to playback a .wav or .mp3 file with any name, the 48 effects that were in the H4n but are now MIA.
The sound quality is excellent.
I haven't had itlong enough to tell.

GREAT little recorder
By: Sally A Daley,QM from Evanston, IL
Submitted: 8/24/2013
Your general opinion of this product.
Having worked with recorders large and small, I find the Zoom H6 a necessity for field recording engineers. It is extremely sensitive, and yields a presence of sound on playback that no other small recorder has. I am sure that when I start using it as a multitracker, and mixing in SONAR X2 producer that the recordings will be above and beyond anything. So far I have used it in only X-Y stereo mode, but am highly pleased with the results. A word of warning: Do not put it near and extraneous noise sources as its sensitivity will cause you to get more noise than sound signal.
I think it is very well made, and if it stands up to the other Zoom products I have used over the years, it will be untouchable.
Easy on all counts.
The presence of sound in the recordings.
Tone is much better than anything else out there in the realm of small digital recorders.
Too new to rate on this one.

DIAL IN ANY SOUND QUALITY YOU WANT. YOU HAVE THE INDUSTRY BEST LISTED. JUST CHOOSE THE ONE YOU WANT.OVER EIGHTEEN CHOICES.GOOD BATTERY LIFE.
VERY WELL MADE. BUT DON`T DROP IT.
THERE IS ABOUT A FIVE STEP PROCESS THAT YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH FOR MOST THINGS-BUT IT IS THE SAME PROCESS(PUSH HOLD,FILP,PRESS.THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE BOOK COVERS ALL OF THE TRICKS.VERY,VERY EASY.ONCE YOU DO IT A COUPLE OF TIMES.IN RECORD MODE NO MENU REQUIRED. JUST PRESS RECORD.
EXAMPLE! IF I AM IN THE FIELD OR THE STUDIO- JUST BY TURNING IT ON I CAN CAPTURE THOSE IDEAS WITHOUT ANY MENUS.WHEN YOU TURN IT ON YOU ARE READY WITH THE PROVIDED MICS OR YOUR OWN OR ALL TOGETHER.WHEN YOU PRESS STOP-IT IS READY TO RECORD AGAIN. IT STORES EACH TAKE WHEN YOU PRESS STOP.WHEN I AM WALKING I GET AN IDEA I TURN IT ON TAKES THREE SECONDS-BOOM !GOT IT- OR HAVE IT IN STAND BY MODE-JUST PUSH RECORD.IT LIKE A DAT TAPE RECORDER.
IT HAS THE PRO SETTINGS ITS UP TO YOU AT THAT POINT-YOU CAN HAVE A $5000 MICROPHONE BUT IF YOU CAN NOT SING-GET THE POINT.

I've had this for 2 weeks now and really love it... Very easy to use, not alot of messing around in sub menus to get it to do what you want. Seems very sturdy and well built. I use it for field recording for video.
Feels very well made.
I love the dials for levels... Makes all the difference.
With the add-on XLR attachment you can get 6 recordable tracks.
