Zoom H6 Audio Recording Essentials is an online, on-demand video course that explores many of the essential features and tools available within the Zoom H6 Recorder. As a podcast editor, producer, and host, I record all of my shows and ACX projects using the Zoom H6 recorder. It’s versatile, powerful, compact, quiet, and loaded with useful features. I liken it to a recording studio in the palm of your hand. This course will boost your confidence and increase your skills and knowledge in using the Zoom H6 recorder as part of your podcast or ACX recording arsenal. There are no prerequisites for this course. This course consists of 26 lectures distributed across 2 sections:
- Section One: Introduction to the Zoom H6
- Section Two: Navigating the Zoom H6
In Section One, we spend our time getting familiar with the hardware side of the Zoom H6, the button layout, navigation techniques, and the detachable mic adapters. In Section Two, we turn our attention to the software side of the H6 as we navigate through the different display windows, turn features on and off, and learn the folder structure of the H6. It’s in this section that we explore features of the H6 like phantom power, plugin power, SD card size types and limits, compression and limiters, updating the firmware, backup recordings, recording formats, the low-cut filter, recording in stereo, MS-RAW, using the H6 as a pass-thru mixer, and updating the firmware.
NOTE: I am not affiliated with the fine folks at Zoom in any way. I have not been asked to endorse their product and I receive no compensation from them. I simply like this product which I’ve been using for over 5 years now and I wanted to dive deeper and teach a course on it. Thank you for your interest in this course and I hope to see you there.
