nice vid! I'm interested when used in interface mode - is there a possibility to record in 24bit or 32 bit to the daw and not device card itself? thanks
Saw comments mentioning the preamp in this device is not that great compared to F3. Did you alos feel like that? As far as there is no hissing sound for my regular video flow, I am okay. I use Deity D3 Pro mic (line in/TRS) and Shure MV7.
I haven’t used the f3… but I haven’t noticed anything at all on this unit. Someone else commented the difference between -122 and -127 which I’m guessing you’re not going to notice that in the real world… maybe, I probably wouldn’t though. Those kind of tests typically are just found in testing. But, who knows, might be a deal breaker. Gas am just came out with a crazy unit that’s $400 that has quite a few more pro features I may look into!
@@TonyMellinger Thanks. I am currently using H4n for line in, but this H1 XLR is a great option for my XLR mics. I use Shure MV7, but everytime I use them I have to record it to computer via a audio interface. If I get this, it would be handy for my RU-vid set up. Awesome review by the way. Keep it up.
@@tvnathreviews Very good! I'm guessing you're using the H4n with the line in because your signal can be consistent? Very cool setup, I've never used a MV7, but have spent quite a bit of time with the SM7b with a cloud booster. Thanks for watching!!
Hi I have a question is there anyway I can record the audio all together, I have a podcast with a quest and I hate that it records both mics into their own individual Files insteadis there a way I can just record one big file
Just what the doctor prescribed. The fact that it offers both XLR and 3.5 mm in plus USB out makes it work as an audio interface when needed. Exceptionally versatile for the price.
You mean with a 1/8” cable? I have not. It would work but you’d lose some audio quality in the cameras preamp. If you go this route keep your camera audio as low as possible
That’s a great question! I need to try it out. From my understanding when you plug it in via usbc it records directly into the iPad as if it were a mic. So hypothetically left and right would be split. I’m not sure though
@@TonyMellinger Sometimes it takes a friend or stranger to point out the obvious 😊 Thanks for taking the request into consideration😉👍 And good luck with everything going forward!👍
Off the top of my head this is a -122dB device and the F3 is -127dB, in other words the F3 is quieter, but the H1 XLR is probably adequate for all but the most critical situations. Other models in the "Essentials"range are -120 I think. So it's good, not perfect, but I doubt whether anyone would notice the noise difference between the F3 and this device in real-world conditions. Note that I am going from memory of spec reading and also expressing personal opinion, but all the available specs are on the Zoom web site.
@@Ozpeter yeah i guess it’ll come to buying one and seeing if it works for me. I only do talking head videos and I can post process so hoping this will save me some money over the F3
Been waiting for mine, ordered from B&H as soon as pre-orders were launched, hope to get soon. Better than lugging my f6 around when i usually only need 2 inputs any way - thanks for the vid!
@@TonyMellingerMaybe it doesn't fit for everyone, but for small creators (like me) it is enough. And I think H1 and H2 models are perfect for basic things.
