With 12 simultaneous recording tracks, interchangeable capsules, and an App-driven touchscreen interface, the H8 is designed to meet all your audio recording needs. There’s An App For Your Workflow Whether you’re capturing audio on location, recording music, or producing a podcast, the H8 color touchscreen adapts to your project’s needs with three app-driven interface options. The PODCAST app makes high-production quality simple. With dedicated Sound Pads, use the touch screen to trigger sound effects, music beds and more. Choose from 13 high-quality sounds or load your own via an SD card. The PODCAST app accommodates up to four mics and two Sound Pad channels. The MUSIC app puts all the important controls at your fingertips: audio levels, faders, metering and more. With 10 input recording input tracks, capturing a large group is easy. Mix, overdub and enhance your recordings with EQ and compression. Connect to Zoom’s Guitar Lab via USB to access an endless assortment of amps and effects. The FIELD app is ideal for location sound, sound design, conferences and more. It gives you instant access to large meters for every track, so you can make sure your recordings never clip. Adjust input type, lo-cut, compress, limiter, noise gate and other key settings. The Mic Capsule The H8 comes with the Zoom XYH-6 microphone. This capsule provides two matched high-quality unidirectional mics, for capturing signal directly in front of the recorder. With the Zoom mic capsule system you can easily swap capsules to ensure you’re always using the right mic for the job. Zoom’s Capsule System 2.0 allows up to four channels of audio to be added to the H8's capsule connection, creating new ways to expand your recording capabilities. The XAH-8 capsule delivers pristine stereo recordings. Easily rotate the capsules from a tight XY pattern to a wide AB pattern to enhance the stereo image of your recordings. The VRH-8 is an Ambisonic mic capsule that utilizes four condenser microphones to deliver immersive 360 audio recordings. A built-in accelerometer helps ensure the capsule is always perfectly aligned, while the on-board Ambisonic decoder automatically handles the necessary conversions, saving you time in post-production. The EXH-8 capsule provides 4 additional XLR inputs, giving you a total of 10. Each additional input has a dedicated gain knob and pad switch. You can even use your favorite condenser microphones—just connect a power source to the EXH-8 capsule to supply phantom power. Remote Control You can monitor level meters and hit REC, PLAY, and STOP in each H8 application mode. Just insert the BTA-1 (sold separately) to your H8 and connect to your iOS device. Inputs & Outputs H8 offers four XLR inputs with dedicated pad switches and gain control. Two additional XLR/TRS combo jacks with Hi-Z switches allow you to capture line level signals, microphones or directly record electric guitars and basses. Monitor tracks using the built-in 1/8” headphone output or connect directly to your camera using the dedicated stereo line output. Multi-Channel Audio Interface The H8 is a powerful USB audio interface. Connect via USB to your PC, Mac, iPad or tablet for up to 12 channels of simultaneous recording. Recording Time & File Formats Get more than 20 hours of recording time from just four AA batteries. Or record forever with the optional AD-17 adapter. The H8 records BWF-compliant WAV and MP3 files in any of the following formats: 44.1kHz (16-bit, 24-bit) 48kHz (16-bit, 24-bit) 96kHz (16-bit, 24-bit) ", "value":"399.99", "priceMin":"399.99", "priceMax":"399.99", "priceSavingsMaxPrice":"0.00", "priceSavingsMaxPercent":"0", "inventory":"8", "brand":"Zoom", "reviewStarImageUrl": "https://static.musiciansfriend.com/img/brand/mf/cmn/Sprit-Sm-Stars.png", "reviewStarRating":"0.0", "reviewStarRatingInteger":"0", "reviewHowManyReviews":"0", "usedOrNew":"new", "discontinued":"0", "onOrder":"0", "clearance":"0", "canBeSold":"1", "accessoryCategories":"site1LDC,site1LZA", "stickerText": ""}
