Q: 1. Any recommendations for affordable lav mics to use with this recorder for podcasting? I have some inexpensive lavs that work OK with my current recorder, but they use button batteries. I tried my more expensive Sennheiser lav and got no signal at all. I would prefer lavs that didn't require batteries.

A: Jason, are you looking for a wired or wireless Lav? I personally always try and use a wired Lav wherever possible ... high fidelity, clear quality audio is critical to most forms of broadcast digital media.If you're happy to go with a wired Lav I'd highly recommend the Shure MX150 Subminiature Lavalier Microphone (Wired XLR) .... you tuck into the collar/chest area of the talent, run the thin Shure cable out of the shirt and then attach a pro studio XLR cable and run it into the Zoom H6 XLR inputs ... really delivers stunning audio quality and works every time without having to worry about RF interference and batteries dying.I have a couple of them and can either record them as separate mono tracks in the H6 or mix them as a stereo pair.I purchased both my H6 and the two Shure MX 150s from B&H and have been totally satisfied with the set-up ... you pay a bit more for a pro Lav but the peace of mind and audio quality is well worth it ... and besides which B&H prices are always very competitive and if you have any issues, B&H service is second to none!Cheers,Neil

Q: 2. Can I use this to record and livestream at the same time? I'd like to use the built in mixer to control the inputs, while recording the audio. And us the output to my ATEM mini for a live stream. Possible?

A: Yes, you can use the H6 to connect your mics and use the built-in mixer to control the inputs while also recording to an SD card. The 3.5mm headphone jack on the H6 functions as a line out which you can connect to an audio input on the ATEM mini.

Q: 3. how do you select line input vs mic input. Does it have a switch or it is done using the menu? Thank you

A: it is done using the menu quite easily.

Q: 4. Can this be hooked up to a speaker to hear the recorded music?

A: Yes. It has a built in speaker as well.

Q: 5. Can I run Audio Out from the H6 into the XLR inputs of the Canon C100 Mark 2? From the specs listed for the H6 it looks like it only has a line out. Any way to do this?Thanks,Sandeep.

A: This is a recorder and not a mixer. So it only offers outputs for LINE and HEADPHONE.Use a Shure A15AS - In-Line Pad with 15, 20 or 25 db of Selectable Mic Attenuation - XLR Barrel B&H # SHA15AS to attenuate the LINE signal and connect to the recorder with this adapter: ---------------------------------------------Remote Audio Unbalanced Adapter Cable 3-Pin XLR Female to 3.5mm RA TS Mini-Jack (18 ) B&H # RECAX3F18M

Q: 6. I'm wondering how fast of a read and write speed I need to have on an SD card, or any of the other recommended cards for use on the Zoom H6? What might be the minimum write and/or read speed when recording 6 inputs at a time?

A: Since the recorder is compatible with standard SD cards the requirements are pretty basic. You will not have to be concerned with read/write speeds for audio like you would be for still photography and video. Any quality SDHC or SDXC class 10 memory card will work well. Any of the recommended cards listed under this recorder's ACCESSORY MEDIA tab will be fine: http://bhpho.to/1rqbYmW

A: Yes it does have one port for audio which is the same you use for your headphone , range wise Im not sure but what I can say is that the sound is very good on the recordings both live and studio recordings

Q: 9. Do the XLR inputs on the H6 lock the mic cord into place or, like on the H4, are they susceptible to falling out?

A: They don’t lock. It’s fine if you are stationary. I wouldn’t try and run around with this setup in a “mobile” environment.

Q: 10. Has anyone tried Lithium Ion batteries in this unit? Do they work?

A: Lithium AA batteries work fine and may last two to three times longer than alkaline cells.
