Tascam Portacapture X8 handheld PCM recorder
Product no: 9000-0062-9619 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.
General
In some cases, the two or four inputs of a standard handheld recorder just won't cut it. To provide you with a fitting solution, Zoom introduce the H6. This 6-channel recorder is equipped with two microphones (X-Y) and four inputs and if needed, the microphone can be removed and swapped out for an optional microphone module.
The Zoom H6: Possibilities
The six channels of the H6 allow for a truckload of possibilities, including two-mic stereo recordings of four close-miked solos or 6-member bands. Sure, bigger and more extensive multi-trackers can do the same thing, but are actually nowhere near as small, practical and portable as the H6. There's a colour display to provide with you an overview of the functions and level-metering, and your recordings can be saved an SD card (not included) for easy file exchange with a PC.

bonne qualité des prises de son.
Nadeel: er zit geen hoesje of doosje bij, die zul je zelf moeten aanschaffen.
Ik heb hem gebruikt voor opnames bij bandrepetities, maar ook bij concerten waarbij ik een line-out van de geluidstafel én het geluid in de zaal opnam. Ook heb ik hem gebruikt als audio-interface en dat werkt ook prima. Het is zo'n apparaat dat alles kan, niet uitblinkt in iets, maar als je financieel beperkt bent een superoplossing.
Voordelen:
- heel flexibel apparaat voor opnames waarbij je je niet kan voorbereiden op de situatie
- supersnel opnamevolumes aanpassen met draaiknoppen
- heel intuïtief menu en makkelijke bediening
- gaat relatief lang mee op batterijen, maar kan ook gewoon op USB-voeding functioneren
- back-up functie op lager volume, zodat je niet continu een oog op de inputvolumes hoeft te hebben
Nadelen:
- voor een audio interface wil je eigenlijk meer kanalen
- ik heb mijn apparaat nu 5 jaar en de rubbercoating desintegreert en wordt plakkerig
- denk goed na welke extra modules je nodig gaat hebben, ze kosten niet niks
