Zoom unveils the new H6studio Handy Recorder
Zoom is pleased to announce the H6studio Handy Recorder. Featuring large-diaphragm XY microphones and four studio-grade preamps, the H6studio supports 32-bit float or classic 24-bit recordings with a simple format switch. It also has dedicated gain knobs to avoid additional post production. The H6studio’s F-series preamps deliver ultra-clean audio (-127 dBu EIN). When paired with their dual A/D converters they provide an impressive 132 dB of dynamic range,
The “advanced look-ahead” limiters also prevent distortion from reaching your track.
Utilising Zoom’s Mic Capsule System 3.0, the H6studio can capture up to eight tracks (six mono tracks plus a stereo mix) at sample rates of up to 192 kHz. It features four locking XLR/TRS inputs and one stereo mini-jack input with plug-in power, as well as an angled, full-colour LCD display for real-time waveform display and level monitoring. The H6studio also functions as a 6-in/2-out USB audio interface for Mac, Windows, iOS and Android devices, supporting 32-bit float and 16/24-bit recording. You can stream live and simultaneously record a backup to microSD.
Like all our new recorders, the H6studio is designed to be accessible to blind and visually impaired users. You can navigate the menu with audible descriptions through the built-in speaker or headphones. With the new ZOOM Handy Control & Sync app for iOS, you can also remotely manage multiple Zoom recorders*, control start/stop and effortlessly synchronise timecode. Current compatible models: H2essential, H5studio and H6studio (BTA-1 or TCA-1 required).
The new H6studio will ship in Q4 2025.
