The Zoom H6 was very easy to use right out of the box. I don't think I even needed to look at the manual. After a few minutes of tinkering with it, pressing buttons, going through menu functions, I was able to use it that same night to record my jazz band's regular tuesday night gig and the recording came out great! This will definitely be a regular part of my gear for both my music projects and video. I am also a video director and haven't used it on a video project yet, but I can already tell that it will be a breeze to use with my Lumix GH3 DSLR rig. It's light weight, runs for a long time on 4AA batteries and records forever on the 16GB SD card I installed.

This is my third Zoom Product. I have previously owned the Zoom H4, H5, and now H6. Just when you think their recorders can't get better, they do! As much as I liked the H4, the mic pre's were not the greatest. My solution back then was the use of the Fethed and phantom power to add more clean gain. But Zoom got a clue and made the mic preamps better on the H4n Pro, H5, and H6 respectively. With that said the Zoom H6 is a dream come true. Easy to use, more mic inputs, of course better mic pre's and an additional two mic inputs by switching out the upper replacement module on top of the recorder. It's a good recorder and even can be used as and USB interface. It's good for the Newbie or Seasoned Podcaster. And its great for DSLR use also. You can't go wrong with this item. Buy it and find out for yourself. You'll be glad you did..Read full review

I was a bit worried about learning curve, but have found the H6 to be even easier to use than my H2n. Just amazing sound quality and you can jump right into using it within minutes. There are times I wish the lcd screen would articulate for various view angles, as it is bit of a trick to see it and get my levels right while playing my saxophone, but that would no doubt detract from its very rugged build. Just a super investment, so fun to use.

Zoom is an industry standard brand and with good reason. The H6 is the most capable piece of kit I have in my studio to date. I use it for recording podcasts/interviews because I only have to pack it and a couple of mics/cables, and it has worked flawlessly so far. It's beyond easy to set up, has tons of options in it's full color menus, and provides perfect audio quality. It also uses either USB power or AA size batteries, meaning zero battery anxiety! It can also be used as a USB interface, meaning this can be your only audio recorder if you have a studio! A must have for anyone recording audio of any kind!

High quality piece of kit, well thought out design solid construction. Easy to use learning curve with a lot of extra features for mixing & editing. Microphone capsules are quite good. Matched with a pair of Blue Hummingbird small diaphragm condenser mics for acoustic guitar is a dream.
