I haven't used my H5 in months, so I needed a refresher on how to format an SD card, plus I learned some extra things in the process of listening to your tutorial. Much appreciated, thanks!
I just got my H5 today! Thanks very much for the video. I've already tested the mic out and the audio blows my mind. I used to use a RODE Go Mic, so the upgrade was totally worth it.
Thank you so much for a great INFORMATIVE AND BRIEF review. I love the H5 Recorder and have been using mine for my Bachelors of Science Degree Program at Full Sail University and have used it in a Sound Design project for a video game. Crazy considering I am an Audio Productions student. I love this recorder and I love the Demo/Overview that you have provided for us. Brief and Clear...Loved This. Thank You.
Hello, My Zoom H5 is on its way as I type and already I am so much for confident in using it for the first time. You are a great teacher and I am grateful. Rachel
Great video. Which jack on the side (line out or headphones) do I use if I want to listen to the play back of any of the recorded material? Either I have horrible headphones, or I need a therapist.
thank you so much for this great info. I'm getting familiar with this product so its very exciting. I have a cooking RU-vid channel and its been almost a year so now I want t impress everyone with new videos w the recording products, mics and lighting.
Thanks for a great review. The only thing that might have helped a little would have been some discussion about audio format and set up. Thanks for your great work.
Trying to download the files via the cable is like trying to push a gallon of water through a cocktail straw. The speed is like maple syrup. Especially when you're dealing with Wave files.
If using 4 microphones along with 4 quality headsets what splitter do you recommend for the headsets? In order words, will sound be affected depending on splitter! Thanks
Thank you for your video! I have a question, I am trying to connect a lavalier mic to the ZoomH5 and I don't get it :( I have a smartLav+ and I bought the SC3 adaptor but still I can't record, would you please give me any advice? thank you and have a nice day!!
..and one more question...Can you record in Stereo with the XLR mics? I am sometimes asked by an agent to send them an mp3 file rather than a wav. Since you can't record an mp3 in multi mode, is it safe to recored an mp3 in stereo with an XLR mic? I have a CAD E 100S. Thanks, agian.
I really like my Zoom H-5. Especially when I need to do voice over for any of my videos and don't feel like sitting at my studio desk. I can hook up one of my quality 🎤 s and do voice over from in my bed if I want to. I just ordered a power cable adapter for it so I can use that instead of having to use batteries. Very Quality Product.
help me with two problems with my H5: 1. I’m using a Shure m58 with standard cable to input 1/2 and Audio-Technica headphones connected to the phone-jack (upper lefthand side of the H5). I have to set the input-volume dials for 1/2 to nearly 7 just to hear myself through the headphones and I hear an annoying “hiss”. Why can’t the unit be more sensitive and I be able to hear from 1-6???? I thought for sure that it would be a beautiful sound that I could hear, crisp and without hiss and at a lower input-volume setting (1-6)? Am I connecting incorrectly? Please help me!
Quick question about the scroll real if anybody can answer this. I have been looking into using the zoom H5 as a temporary/portable solution for getting into voiceover work. The issue that I face with a lot of portable recording devices, however, is that I have a visual impairment so sometimes all of these menus can be rather in accessible to me. My question is as you turn the scroll wheel does it click as you move through each option? And I’m not talking about an auditory click because I know it doesn’t do that. I’m talking about a tactile sensation. Also if you were to just spin the wheel a bunch of times to get directly to the top or the bottom of the menu does it stop at the ends of the menu or does it continue cycling through the menu backwards and or forwards over and over again as you continue to spin the wheel. I hope these questions make sense. Please let me know if I can provide any clarification. My thinking is that if the scroll wheel does have some kind of tactile clicking sensation I can memorize how many clicks it takes to get to the various menu options so that I can actually use the device in the ways discussed in this video. Thank you so much.
Hi, Thank you for this. Very helpful. However, on my new Zoom H5, both the 1 and 2 lights come on simultaneously, instead of one at a time, as in your video. Would you know why? Thanks.
Great vid, i can just say that you could mention that wheels 1 and 2 are for external mics loudness control, and since i havent use it before, i concluded that myself from your tut. (I know, its obvieous, but would be nice to make whole introduction for noobs).
Is the SD slot so fragile that it’s liable to break? Also what’s the point of adding a mic into channel 3? For what purpose? Can you overdub or just add an extra mic? Why would you need 4 channels in this recorder?
Hi Friend, I cannot record with an external mike I got an TAKSTAR an XLR with 3.5 mil female to the mike when I press 1 the 2 also is on I follow you but not luck any IDEA? thanks
