## Description

Zoom H5 Four-Track Portable Recorder : desertcart.in: Musical Instruments

Review: Best portable audio interface and recorder all at the same time. - This is an amazing portable recorder. Perfect for recording everything on the spot. My use case is that I've attached a Shure SM58 to this and I practice flute so that I can identify my mistakes later. Practicing with a microphone in front prepares us for performing live. This microphone has so many features that I've not yet explored them all. Pros: 1. Well built. 2. Quality pre amp and a built in 48V phantom power. All this runs on 2 AA batteries!!! I've been using it for 2 weeks and the battery indicator is still showing full. 3. You can play karaoke tracks on your phone (connect your phone's headphone jack to this one's line in on the mic module and play/sing on the other two tracks. It's perfect for overdubbing and mixing tracks on the go. 4. For the price, we get 3 simultaneous input sources, headphone monitoring, built in compressor and limiters and a stereo mic for field recording. Cons: 1. The menu systems will take some time to get used to. 2. The joystick controller on the side is a little loose but it doesn't affect it's usage. I can't think of any other cons. I also have a scarlett 2i2 but I don't think I'll be using it that much as this is as good as that interface but is portable and has better pre-amps for the SM58 mic. I've also tested it with condenser mics and it performs brilliantly. You can monitor your recording and the dubbing track simultaneously! It's the best feature.. there's no lag in the monitoring. Instead of buying Scarlett 2i2, people could buy this and they'd have a portable interface and a recorder! Highly recommended.
Review: Excellent Recorder. Since I've used the Zoom H4n extensively - Excellent Recorder. Since I've used the Zoom H4n extensively, I knew what would be involved. However, there are some specific improvements on the H4n that must be mentioned. The preamps are cleaner and provide more gain. Then the headphone output and line outputs have been separated. Most of all, the line output can be attenuated to attempt to match levels on DSLRs like Canon 5Ds which allows for better synch-sound recording. It can be run off USB power too; giving more flexibility. Finally, it can provide a slate-tone allowing for easier synchronization of audio in post. The modular system of on-board mics may be useful to some people. I am completely satisfied with this purchase.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great field recorder and audio interface
*by A***R on 25 January 2018*

I am a filmmaker, been us in this device as field recorder using sennhieser mke 600 as dialouge boom mic for a week. It does has a same pre-amps as compared to zoom H6 much better then zoom h4n / pro and other low end recorder like tascam. There is a extra noise when boost the gain above level 5, great battery back up 10-12 hrs with both alkaline and lithium. I suggest use juciedlink to illuminate noise floor to achieve great audio. Pro Great pre amp Phantom power control(12v, 24v & 48v ) Build quality Stereo mic for environment surrounding 12 hr Back up power Sturdy dial knobs and protection metal bar Cons Self Noise above level 5 gain of pre amp No lock on Xlr input( risk of loosing and stucks hard while removing)
