Médisant « A mix between a mutilated H4N and not finished H6 ... »
Published on 08/14/14 at 01:35I bought it to record multiple tracks at any endroite, and good quality, as a multi is supposed to.
I've tried many times the H4N and there is no photo H5 is apparently better:
Manual knobs and analog gains, interchangeable capsules, 15 hours of battery etc.
What make us want!
But the reality is quite different ... I would also like to warn those who want to acquire this recorder:
You can not with H5 in any case with multitrack recording in the same way as the fashion H4N. Let me explain:
There are 4 tracks:
L / R = embedded microphones, excellent quality
1/2 = both XLR jack.
BUT:
First, the built-in mics can be used only on ONE track (actually 2) because they only record in stereo and take two tracks alone.
Second, it is impossible to record embedded on tracks 1 and 2 are reserved for the XLR jack them microphones.
In addition, there is no effect realized in the H4N apart compressors limiters low cut filter and two three odds.
Note that the Bounce, essential function, is impossible.
Forget to record multiple tracks one after the other with built-in microphones as they can only be used once, for the first two tracks that make the final one.
If the choice was to do it again I would not do it again, I will also send all this Thomann.
I recommend this product to those who expect better than the H4N.
Skip to H6 for those who just want to record different environments in higher quality than the H4N and have interchangeable mic capsules.
But forget the multitrack with this gear and stay there H4N cheaper and offer many more possibilities.
