Would it be possible to give some information regarding the preamps? How quiet are they?

[sRagnar]

It's very strange to talk about one microphone while speaking into another. This applies to many of your videos. Do comparison tests, you have all the products, show how they sound!

[LennardHarders]

How do the microphones and pre-amps compare to the H1n?

[Ramiz_Reza]

We need some collar mic or wireless mic from zoom please

[treyedean]

I preordered one of these but what windscreen do you recommend? I picked up the Rycote windscreen for the H1n hoping it will work but do you a recommended one? What accessories come in the box?

[djbillutley]

To use it as the audio interface for phone recording, can it be connected via the type c port, or does it have to be the line out port?

[Miguel.]

do we have release date for Europe? H1N was my first device and i love it. Can't wait to try this one out.

[StandaloneVR]

Is it less noisy than the previous model?

[derickalbert]

Can it be used with iPhone without using camera usb like ik multimedia products.

[sobatnganggur]

huaaa i love it when you said "Good Luck" ... Its a good product

[TheFlashStickman]

So is this like a revamped ZoomH1? I used to have the original Zoom H1.

[deejayroman]

Can the Zoom H1e also be used as an audio interface (sound card) for the PC like its predecessors H1, H1n?
For the Zoom H1e I can only see from the data sheets that it can be used as a USB microphone.

The preamps aren't quiet at all. Check out Curtis Judd.

I'm wanting to use this for two purposes. I want to connect this to my phone which I'm using to record nature scenes. Hoping for this scenario it will be better than my phone audio but will be in sync with the video. Will it work for this situation? Also wanting to use it for Voiceover... so can i use it to connect to my phone as I edit my videos? Total newbie here... so I hope someone can answer all this for me in kid language!

[rnktips]

How much does it cost and how can I purchase it from you from Bangladesh.

[od]

Just got the notification these were in stock and ordered one. Can't wait to use it for recording nature sounds.

[pandanio]

What's the difference in specs between h1e and m2 mictrack (released about year ago)? They seem to have similar features, but thesecond is twice the price.

[kamplaysbass]

can i record from my band's mixer headphone out into this device as if i were plugging a lav into it?

[imrin]

What different h1e 32bit and h4e 32bit? Differen quality?

[Jake]

I would be fine with the orginal if they would updated the firmware to allow for a backup track.
