Never Lose a Take Due to Clipping
Whether you're on set or on location, the H6studio's 32-bit float recording keeps you free from clipping and protects you from the unexpected.

Bigger Mics, Bigger Sound
The H6studio’s 19.4mm XY microphones capture a rich, flat-response with 123 dB of dynamic range and can withstand 140 dB SPL, enough to record a jet engine.
The Power of F-Series Preamps
