Be it the Zoom two-channel F1 field recorder or F4 and F8 recorders, the Zoom XYH-6 XY Capsule is compatible with these devices. This makes it easier for musicians, stage performers, and artists to record their performances conveniently.

How does this mic capsule offer seamless stereo recording?

As this Zoom mic capsule consists of two unidirectional adjustable mics that capture the sound of a wide frequency range from the centre or a field, it is ideally suited for any type of stereo recording inside the studio or outdoors. Based on the field or the place, you can adjust mics from 90 degrees to 120 degrees for a wider stereo image.

How does this mic capsule compare with the Zoom XYH-5 mic?

The Zoom XYH-5 mic comes with fixed, shock-mounted cardioid mic capsules that cannot be adjusted for enhanced sound capturing as per the stereo field range like in the case of the XYH-6 mic capsule. Hence, you can gain better-focused sound quality in the latter than the former.
