Are you considering buying the Zoom H8? Are you wondering whether you really need to spend the extra money on it, when the H4n Pro, H5, or H6 might suffice? In this video, I'm going to go over what the H8 can do, what it can't do, and who should buy it.

@antico.2757 Месяц назад

Thanks! I was all ready to upgrade from the H6 to the H8 and your vid extra sold me. Used your affiliate link. Hope it worked! I first got the H2 over 15 years ago and it's been amazing! Around a year ago bought the H6 for $300(usd) and now it's under $200!! Highly recommend (unless you need 2 more inputs!) The h8 is currently at $330 (on sale on Amazon) which, if such trend$ continue, will be well under 300 a year from now. Not willing to wait! Zoom = great products!!! Thanks again!

Great review, very useful info about who should buy it. Please consider making a review for the zoom F6.

@christianskyes Год назад

Thanks, will do!

@dmarcdavinchi9152 Год назад

Thanks! I have this device and absolutely love it, BUT Don’t have and experience with other types of portable recording devices. JUST TONS OF AUDIO RECORDING EXPERIENCE. I feel it great for amateurs that want that professional feel, but not making enough money to buy equipment that they are not ready for.

@AsleHelseth Год назад

The realtime effects are a great addition for the few amongst us using this as a portable in-ear mixer for live performance monitoring and recording. I’ve used the H6 for this purpose up until now and EQ is something I’ve been hoping for. Adjustable compressor and limiter setting are also most welcome. Otherwise I agree about post production editing. The MS and Shotgun/MS mics are also great for capturing stage and live audience sound.

Hi, Can I plug XLR mics into the instrument line in section with an adapter to avoid buying the additional mic capsule yet?

@Medievalfan94 Год назад

Okay, so here is my situation: I play in a band, we are a singer, singer/keys, guitarist, bassist and drums (me). I wanted to record the practice sessions to have a recording I can practice to at home. I was loking for the smaller devices at first. Then my stupid inner gearhead stepped in and thought "Oh well, 6 inputs out of the box, that would give everyone an input to play into, with the attachment I could even have a semi decent drum mic setup..." Do I think too far or should I spend the 355€ to buy an H8?

@clicks59 2 года назад

Another caveat when using the EHX-6 capsule on the H8 is the angle of the XLR inputs into the body of the H8. There is definitely some interference if you are going to try to use the EHX-6 capsule with XLR cables… Not the best design. I have the H8 and was hoping to gain two channels using the EHX-6. Unless someone makes a short 90 degree XLR cable. It won’t work.

@user-vq6kb3hw4t 6 месяцев назад

I'm not an expert, but my boyfriend is a professional musician who plays at his homemade studio at the back of our house. The sound is horrible and he only records through his pedal board. After recording from the pedal board he records it on his old smartphone which he only uses for this purpose. He often complains about not recording it perfectly and the sounds are not in the perfect "shape" or line. The question is: Could this device be the perfect tool to help bands record in their "house/flat studio"? Thank you for your answer in advance,

Is it possible to live stream from the x/y mics?

@garyclement5527 2 года назад

You said something about recording instruments direct into the recorder with an included capsule? - Or do you mean I will not be able to run a microphone direct and record music instruments?

@TomDavisVideo Год назад

should use a low cut filter on your recorder for your voice

@MrHamit64 Год назад

Yes which was a shame as I had bought the H6 to record in 5.1 surround sound. But why bother with all the stuff in the way for the EX H6. But with the H8 you could do 9.1 surround all from the machine.

@simonchan4793 Год назад

Great video, esp the conclusion part; cannot help to "like". I bought an H6 and found that at the end of musical recording, I could only get sound tracks on individual track basis, but not a mixed/combined track and hence could not get the key "end product" that I also want. Would H8 produces a stero-mix track, or it is just my ignorance of H6, which can also produce one. Thank you.

@christianskyes Год назад

Do you mean having multiple microphones plugged in, and getting a stereo mix as a result?

@pandanustrees Год назад

Ohhhhh true, i think you just saved me some money haha so you'd still need a DAW etc to create a finished track?

@mouradkachroud500 Год назад

Hi, thanks for the great video. I have a question before buying the MSH-6 and SSH-6 capsules for my H8. On the H5 and H6 it is possible to set the Side mic level using the side buttons directly on the devices. Is it also possible with the H8, or the only way is using the Zoom software M/S in post-production? Thank you!

@aguantecivile2 Год назад

@JeremyHolmes 8 месяцев назад

The video is rad, thank you. I'm curious why you keep saying "not portable". It's beyond portable. Not handheld I believe is what you're after. If I packed up the pieces of my studio that I needed, to do what this thing does; I'd be packing up a Pc, one of my 8 port mic pres, monitor etc.... This is all super potable, even with the attachments. Thank you again for all the detail and effort. Pro tip... colored electrical tape on both ends of the mic cable. Cheers
