Q: 7. How does a microphone support 32bit float wide dynamic range recording?

A: The Zoom SSH-6e Stereo Mid-Side Shotgun Microphone for H6essential Portable Recorder connects to two (2) analog to digital converters (ADC) inside of the Zoom H6essential—one that handles all of your low-SPL audio and one that handles all signals that are high SPL. The ADC that handles your low-SPL signals is there to be able to capture very quiet sounds and retain a low noise floor, while the other ADC (for high-SPL audio) is used to help prevent clipping.

Q: 8. Does Zoom sell an extension cable for attaching the microphone capsules separate from the recorder with this next gen recorder?

A: The microphone modules previously available for the Zoom H4n, H5, H6, and H8 recorders are not compatible with the Zoom H6essential 6-Track 32-Bit Float Portable Audio Recorder or other recorders in the new essential series.

Q: 9. Can I disable recording of the Stereo Mix and record ONLY the iso tracks? (The 4 track version will NOT do this.)

Q: 10. Why does this module have a power input? Can it be used by itself as a separate recorder?

A: The DC5V USB-C power input on the Zoom EXH-6e Dual XLR-1/4" TRS Input Capsule for H6essential Portable Recorder would be used for powering condenser microphones with an XLR connector, because these types of mics require 48V phantom power.
