With four tracks, 32-bit float recording and enhanced X/Y microphones, the Zoom H4essential Handy Recorder offers a wealth of possibilities for musicians, podcasters and content creators. Thanks to the extended dynamic range of 32-bit float recording, the H4essential enables distortion-free recordings in perfect quality at all times. The Essential series has been designed to be accessible and offers audio guidance in multiple languages via the built-in speaker or headphones. With two XLR/TRS combo inputs and X/Y microphones with a sound pressure level of up to 130 dB, the H4essential is ideal for recording live music, on-set dialog or ambient sound. The integrated mixer allows easy adjustment of the audio level of each track, while the waveform display provides visual monitoring of the audio signal.
Whether for music recording, location sound, interviews or podcasts, the H4essential is a versatile tool. The soft-touch controls ensure quiet operation and the internal speaker allows for quick monitoring of recordings. Versatile inputs and outputs, including the 3.5 mm line output and microphone/line input, offer flexibility when connecting to headphones, cameras and other devices.
The brilliant full-color LCD screen makes it easy to navigate the menu and makes the H4essential a user-friendly recorder. With the ability to simultaneously record to SD card and stream in 32-bit float, the H4essential can also be used as an audio interface when connected to a computer or mobile device. A powerful tool for anyone looking for high-quality audio recordings in a wide range of applications.
