Studio Quality Sound for Any Recording, Anywhere
Pro Sound Every Time You Press Record
The H6studio features large-diaphragm XY microphones, four studio-grade preamps, and 32-bit float recording with dedicated gain knobs. Built with F-Series technology, it's the most advanced Handy Recorder to date.
The Power of F-Series Preamps
The H6studio's preamps deliver ultra-clean audio (-127 dBu EIN). Paired with dual A/D converters and 32-bit float, they provide
132 dB of dynamic range to capture every nuance.

The Perfect Pair
The onboard mics are stacked at a 90 angle to form a perfect X/Y pair. This minimizes phase cancellation commonly experienced with AB and other mic arrangements that can result in hollow sound.

Switch Formats, Not Recorders
32-bit float and 16/24-bit formats each have their advantages. 32-bit float prevents clipping but requires post-production. 16/24-bit eliminates the need for post-processing but requires gain adjustment to prevent clipping.
The H6studio offers the best of both worlds with 32-bit float and dedicated gain knobs-no clipping and no need for post-production. And with the dedicated format switch, you can adapt your workflow quickly.
