Zoom H4 Essential

for the first time in my life I have found joy in my life recording audio! Thank you Zoom!!! You really did it this time.

I gave this a thumbs up, purely for the comedy bit about Big foot 😂

I am under the impression that there is absolutely NO line in port in the ZOOM H6 Essential unit.
Which makes the possession of H4 essential even more appealing, especially if you are using a wireless mic trying to utilize the 32bit float.
Like you do in your example.
Furthermore, If someone has a Hollyland LARK M2 unit, he/she can have 32bit float in TWO (2!!!) seperate wireless mics/channels, connected through the LINE IN port of the H4 unit.
Thank you for your truly enlightening video.

Thanks for that inspirational video. I just bought a H4essential yesterday and I appreciate everything you said.

Not just zoom but 32-bit float devices is changing the game. I have the Rode Wireless Pro dual mic set up for recording disc golf content and it’s a breeze now. Just plug it up and hit record and mess with levels in post which I prefer doing. I just ordered the H6 E for capturing concert audio mainly connecting it to the mixer. I think it’s gonna change the game when it comes to that kind of stuff. I can’t wait to try it out next week. I’ve had many failed attempts at this with my H4n pro and H5. So this will be a big upgrade for sure. I’ve officially went full 32-but float for all my main audio. Never looking back

You hooked up your Rode receiver to the recorder? I’m New to the audio part. I need one of those recorders.

Thank you for this video! I only own an old Tascam Dr40, I was thinking to upgrade with this one to use it with my Rode NGT4+, do you think it's worth it? I need to use it for documentary filmmaking

[KevinDeBond]

Thanks for this review man. I just ordered mine and it's on the way.
I just came across a comment stating that the new H6 essential doesn't have a metronome and tuner unlike the OG H6. Is this true?
l'm a musician so to see these 2 things gone, especially the metronome is pretty disappointing, but I'm hoping this is not the case?

[ShineNoelA]

great concise review I am going to buy one online this week thanks to you

[freddielo]

I'm really on the fence between this Zoom H4e vs Sony A10. My main use for them would be to record the gigs (I am a musician) mainly via the line in from my monitor mix. They are basically the same price in my area.

[BenjaminKanarek]

Thanks for this. Just ordered mine today!

Great video, but Bigfoot, seriously I wasn't expecting that

[reinerwongler]

Does it work with a USB-C powerbank instead of batteries? And how good are the internal mics for recording loud music?

[glassstudiomexico]

tengo una duda espero me puedas ayudar, puedo conectar mis microfonos inalambricos rode para grabar y al mismo tiempo usar los microfonos que incoorpora al mismo tiempo sin tener que comprar cables extra ? o solo se podria comprando cables XLRS para que se conecte por las otras entradas

[mauriceschoenen]

Great video, you deserve more views.

The H6essential is not a lot more expensive, which one do you consider for run and gun filmmaking, interviews, etc.?

I saw a video by another YouTuber and he didn’t like the new series, what’s your opinion (pre amps, build quality, etc.) on that? I am little confused, because I like zoom products but he seemed so negative about it that it’s a lazy product range and you should wait for the future “Pro” series or something else. But the price is pretty good.

[thomasusheriii]

Can this be turned up to record louder during a live stream?

[dreymedv]

is it impossible to record a track when playing a neighboring one? Like H5?

[harikays]

What db levels is your Rode receiver at when connect to the Zoom?

[X-RAYSTUDIOS]
